I've own several brands over the years including some Necky models etc. The WS Pamlico Tandems offer the pinnacle of versatility, stability, comfort and tracking for a myriad of paddling conditions. I owned a Pamlico 135T which was a great kayak but as I grew to include more items and gear on my longer excursions, I needed just a bit more room. I recently purchased my second WS 145T and my 72 lb (rescue) Adventure Hound, my passenger and I, fit famously in this vessel. It's wider than average cockpit opening offers the easiest entry and loading of any boat in its class. It has excellent tracking with its 14.5 ft length, and rounder, wider hull...I opted for the Rudder system on this second Pamlico as it could help with steering for beginner paddlers. The comfortable, well padded and well ventilated seat covers are superior to any other boats I've paddled, especially on long days on the water. The versatility of moving the front seat back to mid ship easily accommodates the solo paddler while offering plenty of gear storage. The water proof storage hatch is quite roomy as well. This kayak is hands down, the best designed, best value in its class..if you're looking for a versatile kayak that you can paddle alone or with a friend and not compromise performance on the water...you need to seriously take a look at the WS Pamlico.
