Comfortable, stable, lightweight and affordable, the Otter is Old Town's solution for family water fun.
Its superior design tracks better and paddles easier than others in its class. The high-back seat offers exceptional comfort. The larger cockpit allows for easier entry and exit. And because the Otter is lightweight, it's easy to cartop or carry.

Old Town Otter review
About the reviewer
I have been kayaking for 4 years. Own a Pamlico 140Test environment
Calm, FlatReview
Overall, it was a nice compact kayak. .while it didnt track the greatest, it did make up for it in stability, and EXTREME ease of manuvering. This kayak is, without the doubt, the best manuverer I've ever paddled. When I turned it countinuosly, it really seemed to be turning on a dime. So while it might not track like its on rails, it turns with little effort, much less than my Pamlico 140, and is stable. I would not recomend this kayak for kayakers seeking a kayak to cover long distances, or multy day trips, but instead a kayak for more casual style excursions that dont cover long distances. It may also be appropriate for mild white water.Conclusion
Good kayak for shorter trips.Review
