    • Smooth sailing
Color: Funkadelic
We got two of these kayaks last week and have been out on flat water twice already. The skeg works fantastically well for paddling in crosswinds. Lots of nice adjustments including how the seat angle can be changed, even while in the water. Great stylish coloring, looks just like the pictures you see here, makes us distinctive from other yaks on the water. We're looking forward to getting many years and adventures out of these. 2024 EDIT: It's been four great summers with these kayaks and we've taken them on quite a few adventures. The hulls are really tough; a couple of scrapes from river rocks and maybe a few scratches from transporting in the back of the pickup. But otherwise they look and work like new. We get compliments from time-to-time on their colorful patterns. If I had to buy more kayaks I'd still go with this model, or maybe a shorter version by Perception. Great brand, great yaks. ... show more

    • Fast and comfortable!

Kayak is lightweight and fast! I have so much fun in the water with my boat. I’ve had it in a lake, salt water canal and river. It’s been great in every setting. The only problem is it is so much faster than other kayaks I’m way ahead of friends I’m with! I love the skeg that keeps me straight in wind and currents. The seat is so comfortable and foot rests are so adjustable I’m able to stay on the water most of the day with no fatigue. I recommend this kayak to anyone wanting to get some peaceful relaxing exercise! ... show more

    • Love this kayak!
Color: Funkadelic
This is my favorite kayak yet. I’m able to carry it by myself even though it is 11 1/2 feet long. I’m only 5 feet tall and the kayak weighs 44 pounds and is relatively easy to carry on your shoulder for short distance. Tracks nicely and is very comfortable. I would highly recommend this kayak.

I bought this kayak to maintain my cardio fitness while repairing my destroyed knee. It has pretty manageable size and weight and quite stable on water. It definitely is faster and has better tracking than cheaper rented kayaks, however I have only limited experience with kayaks. The kayak arrived on time with no packaging and with some deep scratches. ... show more

    • Great kayak. Well packed. Properly delivered.
Well packed to protect the vessel; all components intact; Bill of Sale document was included w manufacturers hull ID number and date of fabrication. Arrived in brand new condition with zero scratches or damage. The saw other reviews complaining about no instruction booklet coming with the boat. Anyone with basic familiarization of kayaking would not need written instructions. Nevertheless - the easy solution is to go online and download all the literature you might want or need. From my perspective it’s a great kayak - properly delivered. ... show more

Terrible communication between Amazon and CEVA , which is a courier for delivery large items like kayak. CEVA sets delivery appointment or cancel it without Amazon knowing that! First delivery that was set on February 6, 2021 failed and after multiple calls to Amazon and CEVA, I set the appointment on February 22, 2021. The is far away from being hassle free purchase! At the end, the kayak was received damaged! From picture taken on received kayak, there are indications of not original factory packaging. Most likely it was returned, and I wouldn't be surprised for the same reason of being damaged and resold to me. Awful experience! Took a picture of kayak damaged and barcode serial number and requested replacement. Hope to receive a brand new kayak, not a return item. ... show more

    • Perfect all-around use, very stable

Review Image by Marla Marla
I love this kayak, it has so many great features. The foot rests are adjustable, as are the seat and knee pads. You can really optimize your position for paddling. The skeg is also a great bonus, I can't imagine not having one - it helps so much with stability and staying on course. The kayak was delivered on time and in great shape. The photo is not my kayak, which is the Funkadelic color scheme (love!) but it's the same model. I've padded in lakes, rivers, and open water in it. ... show more

    • Great kayak
Color: Funkadelic
This kayak is as great as reviews I read about it. I'm an experienced kayaker but wanted a shorter touring kayak that was easy for a 120 pound, 5'4" frame to handle and this is perfect. It has a separate large dry storage area and a comfy seat. The only issue was with the delivery service Amazon used but that was quickly resolved with one phone call to customer service and I was so impressed with their help and ease to resolve the issue. One hundred percent would recommend. ... show more
