This is my first Kayak purchase. I only kayaked once before and I intended this purchase to possibly be a lifetime investment as I'm 62.
I have launched it in a man-made lake, natural lake, and the Susquehanna River. I have it tracking straight and it handles extremely well in shallow water in creeks. The seat is comfortable and I typically paddle for 1-2 hours with no soreness. I like the ride on top for ease of launching and exiting. Its very stable but I have not yet ventured into rough waters. The kayak is well made and designed and I believe it will serve me for years to come.
