Where you from, you sexy thang? Well, it IS sexy – for a rec boat.

Between the sleek lines, the techy deck rigging system, some people don’t even realize they’re looking at a rec boat. Try paddling in it. With zippy hull speed and impressive maneuverability, this lightweight wonder will have you grinnin’ from here to yonder. And if you’d like to take some of your gear with you to yonder, then pack it in and keep it dry with the Dual Density hatch. To round it off, you’ll get that huggable Comfort Fit System™ with Thermofoam seat and back pads. And who could forget about the Camolk™ adjustable highbcak backrest and AirCore™ adjustable lumbar support? Not us.

Smooth glide

About the reviewer

Work as Manager in French Creek Outfitters in Kayak department

Test environment

Flat water turned in into some rough tight turns through rocks further down river. Easy to fish off of handled great through turns and no problems when hitting some shallow spots hull took it well.

Review

Smooth glides well through the water, fits larger paddlers well. Handles like a 10 or 9 foot boat but tracks like one much larger, excellent for just about anything save high whitewater.

Conclusion

Great for beginners who want a good all around boat that is stable, or an experienced paddler that wants something that is not to big and bulky when getting on and off the roof rack and is still easy to carry by yourself
