I bought this kayak on a whim as a scratch and dent special to have as a spare when taking other people out on the river. After using it once I immediately fell in love. This thing is absolutely effortless to move through the water and even in 3-4 foot swells it begs for more. I'm actually looking at another one just in case something happens to this one. Whoever designed this boat really thought it through. There is nothing accidental here. My only complaint (and it's not that big of a deal to me) is the center dry hatch isn't all that dry. I'm not sure exactly how water gets in there, but it does. Just a dry bag thrown in there with my stuff solves this problem, but just something to be aware of.
