I bought one of these board last year to add to the six we already had at our summer home in Montenegro - the more boards you have, the greater the fun, as no one has to wait for a "turn". This board, while not giving more fun than its lighter cousins, soon became our favourite board. It is very stable, although I must admit I fell off it last week while trying to retrieve something at full arm's stretch - my first fall in over two years. I use it as a tender for my small yacht, and felt no anxiety at all last week when I used it to transfer two very heavy marine batteries the hundred meters or so from my mooring to the shore, even though there was quite a chop. My wife (we are both on the wrong side of 70, in fact I'm 76 tomorrow) really enjoys the stability of this board. She stopped standing on our other boards a couple of years ago because of the effort involved in getting back on, but she will occasionally stand on this one because it is so stable. This stability comes at a price however. It is significantly heavier than any of our other boards, and the absence of a central carry handle makes it much more tiring to carry over any distance. If your intended use will involve walking more than a 100 meters, I strongly advise you get a shoulder carrying strap. It's not difficult to carry - it's just that you can't do it with a straight arm, which is much more tiring. It is built more robustly than any of our other boards and so far, has not suffered any damage when exploring some sea-caves near our house - the walls are quite sharp! It costs quite a bit more than other boards, but it is certainly worth it.

Works as a SUP or kayak. Super sturdy. Well made. Looks great. Seat sucks so I just sit on the back deck and paddle. I even stand up while fishing. Pup loves it...she just runs around on top, jumps in when she wants to swim and comes back. Easy to clean, easy to store. Tracks like a hardshell. Love it.

Me sorprendió muy gratamente porque no espera que fuera tan bueno!! Flota muy bien. Estable y corre súper bien en el agua. Ligero para transportar y adecuado en casi cualquier tipo de agua. Me encantó!!

Very stable. Used to get out and back from my boat in Maine. Upgraded to a better kyack paddle. Nice cross stitch inflatable.

I bought mine from Ebay as amazon didnt have any at the time. I love this thing. Not only is it fantastic for the price, its better than most double its price. its designed very well and tracks well for an inflatable. Things to know: -This is the second version of the kayak and the better one. The first one didnt have the indents on the sides of the inflatable floor so water can fall in them so you dont get wet. -Make sure you use the fin it comes with, it helps the kayak track better, the difference is night and day. it also helps by alerting you that you are too shallow because it will hit first before your kayak does. -The pump and paddle it comes with are garbage. you need a dual action pump. Buy the NAS or goplus dual pump as those have the proper bravo valve that fits perfect. Theres other pumps that have similar valves that do fit but wont stay in place without you holding it there. if you have a bad back, buy a sup inflatable electric pump, otherwise pumping this thing will kill your back -For a paddle i bought the WONITAGO Kayak Paddle, item number B088PRHR7R. Fantastic paddle for the money. fairly light. and adjustable, especially good for someone who's never kayaked before and doesn't know what length they will be comfortable with. -the seat it came with i didn't like at all, no padding and not enough back support. I bought one called "leader" item number B01GFSNQBK. Much better . Someone on here with a previous model of this kayak bought an inflatable seat to go with his and it looked a lot nicer than you think, so thats another option -Use 303 Marine UV Protectant Spray twice thru out the summer and right before storing it for winter. it provides uv protection from sun, keeps the vinyl from drying out and prevents it from sticking to itself when folding and putting in the bag.
