Great all around kayak. doesn't handle chop the best and not well suited for smaller paddlers because of the width. This is a tough boat, tracks good and turns good and it's comfortable. Holds enough gear for a couple days worth of camping although not a speed demon by any means but holds it's own.
I've had this kayak for 5+ years and it has served me very well. Just bought the angler version Dirigo 120. I paddle big slow rivers and small rivers like the Mississippi, Wisconsin and Kickapoo rivers.
I highly recommend this kayak for beginners or anyone who needs a tough all around kayak.
