I recently purchased the Propel 10. I use it for inshore saltwater fishing. I love the size, the propel mechanism, the already installed track systems. I do somewhat agree on the rudder issues (I am sure that it would be phenomenal on lakes) but, it does work "sufficiently" on the inshore creeks and inlets. My only "REAL" complaint is the rudder control lever. I find it very "sloppy" and flimsy. I may have to upgrade to a different aftermarket lever control. I have also upgraded the seat risers to after market risers. Kayak is solid and stable!
