This was one of only few kayaks I considered to buy for solo paddling. Weight for 12 footer was putting it on top of my list. Unfortunately this kayak has very low back support. I can't see myself sitting in this kayak and not being able to take some rest.
I have Twin Otter (14'long; at the time when I was buying 16' was not available) for more than 5 years. I always go with my wife and we love this kayak.We paddling only on lakes and last season I started fishing from it. This kayak is stable, easy to maneuver and fast enough.
