These are my kayaks. I've had them well over 10 years. I bought them back when i had my place down in Key largo, FL. I use to take them in the back country waters and fish for snapper and snook. Once I caught a big ass snooker and he actually pulled in that kayak.
But I also like these now that up north, however water does come into the kayak, which helps keep its balance and why ocean kayaks are hard to tip. But if you want to kayak in spring and fall you need a wet suit.
