Good Quality for the Price
I waited until we actually got these on the water to review so I could provide some useful feedback. We tested a dozen boats before we purchased and are very happy with these. -These boats have a fairly low center of gravity for the style of on tops that they are. Tipping this boat will require actual effort. I know because I tried. -They come with only a rear dry well with no bag so a dry bag is a must unless you want your stuff sliding around all the time. Just in front of the cup holder is a spot for an additional dry well hatch to be added, which I already have done. Please note that any modifications to the hull Void the warranty. -The chair back is easily adjusted and comfortable. The seat is hard plastic and I recommend buying a cushion. I used one that has adhesive on the back and was very pleased with the ride. -I added a GoPro surfing mount and it has adhered to the polyethylene hull nicely. -I thought these boats had great tracking and were easily maneuverable. They aren't the fastest kayaks I've ever used, but for cruising and fishing they are perfect. Our first float in them we did 9 miles in just under 3 hours. That includes stopping for lunch and just chilling without paddling some. - Unlike several bargain brands these are blow molded and are only one piece with no large seam. - These come with fairly good quality paddles with 3 feathering angle options so no need to spend large sums on a paddle for now. The only things I don't love are the feet notches. I prefer pegs, but I realize these are more durable and won't have to be replaced. My star deduction is for the feet pegs, need for a seat cushion, and slightly reduced speed. Overall we really love these boats and are glad we purchased them.
