I've had both of these kayaks about two years and they've just seen mild white water rivers and lakes in CA (Kern, Stanislaus, Pyramid, and Tahoe) They haven't gotten much use and I no longer have the friends in the sport locally to shuttle with. It can be managed by a single person easily lifted overhead. It has a deployable skeg for tracking very straight on open water or slow parts of the river. It also has a large hatch for storage and a perfect size if your under 300#s and 7' tall. (I'm 5'10 and 200#s and it's a perfect fitting-using kayak) I'm including the spray skirts to stay dry and nice paddles ($200 value). I have an identical Orange one available for the same price. I didn't have it with me in Tahoe when I created this listing and will try to take new pics when I'm back up in LA. Both boats have a custom 2" high density foam bulkhead that makes it extremely comfortable for all day kayaking and even better with bare feet at the lake. This is one of the rare kayaks that is very stable in almost any water condition whether you are a beginner or more experienced user. I have a matching one in Orange color also w paddle and new spray skirt but it is still in Los Angeles. Contact me if you'r interested in buying both and I will arrange it.
