Roomy enough that tandem paddlers do not have to be in sync. Very stable and tracks well but is difficult to get started. You need a kayak cart. 2nd had a significant shaving cut in the nose but nothing that would affect performance.

Much faster than my 10 ft Pescador. Extra Length and rounder hull definitely speed things up and make for easier paddling. Of course not as easy to turn on a dime as 10 footer. Not too heavy for extra length but a little harder to put on rooftop just due to length and ability to balance at back of car. Great boat came with a few extras too-anchor, pole holder.

I added a cushion that has a padded seat and back and it works great. I can carry it from our deck to Puget Sound on calm days and paddle quietly in shallow waters following the shore line. I bought an 84 cm. paddle and it works well. We are going to buy pipe insulation so that I can carry it inside the kayak and when I want to carry the kayak on my shoulder, I can attach the pipe insulation and it will pad my shoulder. I wanted a light kayak and this 25 pounder works well for me.
