My first sit on top..I had sit in for years , My back bothers me and older getting tuff to get in and out of sit ins,.I am happy with it have more room to move around in this and it s lot more stable. So i cn move around and reach things. It s little heavyer than other kayaks and wider so takes little more work to paddle But Gives me better work out..
I recently bout this perception . I wanted a sit on top. I can move around in it lot better than my sit in.use it for fisshing. It s heavyer and takes more energy to paddle it. Thats the trade off. But very happy with it.. I am older now and have back problems so need the room to move around,,
