Total independence and total confidence - that is what I love most about my Eddyline Sky 10.

I am a novice kayaker (61 yrs old, 5’5” and 160lbs). I purchased my Sky 10 three weeks ago and have paddled five different lakes for a total of seven trips. At 32 lbs. and 10’, this boat is a breeze to load (with roller) on top of my Subaru hatchback. This means I have the freedom to paddle when I want (weather and work allowing!).

Primary and secondary stability has been great. The Sky 10 is easy to get into with a roomie, confortable cockpit. It remains stable while paddling across small lakes or along the shoreline of larger lakes. I have paddled in light winds (up to 10mph), with some small speedboat wake. This kayak is very stable during paddle float re-entry practice. The sealed bulkheads fore and aft definitely contribute to this stability, buoyancy, and ease of re-entry. I am unable to compare tracking to larger kayaks, but this boat goes straight as it glides through calm water. As my paddling skills improve, so has tracking!

I highly recommend the Eddyline Sky 10 for paddlers who want a light, stable, fun kayak that turns on a dime and looks great!
