Has this boat for less than two months (Tiderace Explore M) and had nothing but problems. Right away I noticed the day hatch leaked through the sealant around the combing. I could pour water around the hatch and watch it drip through. Shortly after I noticed the skeg wasn't deploying properly as the cable was cut too short. The final straw was while paddling several miles offshore discovering the reason I was sitting in a puddle of water was because it was leaking through the bolt that holds the foot braces in place. Just too many issues to have confidence in this boat. I know the web is full of positive reviews but beware of what you are getting. After all this happened I found out not only did the have a history of leaky hatches but at times they would actually come loose from the boat.
