About the reviewer

I'm between beginner and intermediate levels, closer to beginner. Started kayaking in the '90-s, it became more regular about five years ago and paddled more or less weekly in the last two years.

I have experiences mainly on inland waters. I paddled once the Mediterranean sea and once the Aegean. That was fun. O:-)

Test environment

Several times on rivers in Hungary.

Review

Storage room is not as big as for bigger kayaks (like for Kodiak), but plenty enough for my old tent and all stuffs for a week or two.

Hatches are closing correctly.

The back rest is a belt, what is best for me. For others it might be a weak point.
Primary stability is a bit low, but I think it's pro, not contra. Fast, well edging capability, easy to roll. On calm water the rudder is not necessary but very usefull in tough conditions.

Conclusion

Nice and fast kayak for smaller or medium sized paddlers.
