Enjoyable to use - no hesitation recommending it providing you can get it on and off the car.

About Me
Kayaking for about 3 years with experience in a variety of kayaks from sea and surf to a little white water. 6' 2" and 12.5 stone
Pros / The Good
Great build quality - very solid and very comfortable. Surprisingly fast as all the reviews mention - I've had no problem keping up with the 17ft+ fibre galss guys on short sea trips so either the design is good or I'm incredible... Large cockpit - so easy access - and rounded front decking so little wave-breaking wash comes towards the spraydeck. Good size hatches that fit superbly with no deck felxing when popping them into place
Cons / The Bad
A wee bit on the heavy side for a shortish kayak - but then that's why the quality and thickness of materials is so noticeable - and the build quality is a mentionable feature. On the wide side - but then that's also a plus if you want stability
