About the reviewer
fisherman, recreational paddlerTest environment
freshwater lakes & ponds and the Long Island SoundReview
My only complaint is that when I test paddled a 12' version of this kayak, I was told the 14' version would be much drier. (I'm 225lbs, 6'3") So I purchased the 14' version. The footwell fills all the way up with water and spills over into my seat making for a very wet ride. I purchased scupper plugs and this took care of the problem. Otherwise an excellent kayak with plenty of legroom, and with a good seat, fairly comfortable for 4 hours. Any longer and need to get out and stretch. (BTW, the only additional weight I carry is 2 poles and 1 small tackle box <5lbs, and 1 2lb anchor.Conclusion
Overall, fairly speedy, tracks well, plenty of room, very wet ride for over 225lb person. Recommend test paddling the exact boat with all gear you will be carrying.Review
