We have the 10XT, along with a couple of Dirigo 106s and a Heron. The Vapor 10XT is the heaviest of the four, but has great dry storage and a bigger/longer cockpit opening for longer legs. I like the fixed handles that allow me to use a security chain effectively, but my wife prefers the bungee handles on the Dirigos because they are easier on her hands to carry. The vapor tracks reasonably well and is very stable. If you need the extra room and don't mind the extra weight, this is a good kayak.
