Summary:
The CLC 16 is more than worth the $2,300 I paid for it. At only 42 lbs, this far surpasses any fiberglass boat on the market today. The kayak tracks amazingly straight and does not need a rudder!!! Handles great in rough seas, and is nearly impossible to tip (I've only ever seen one guy roll this thing, and he was an expert paddeler with a hightened seat pad). Excellent boat!!! If you can pick one up for $2,000 to $2,400, don't hesitate.

Summary:
I bought this boat not too long ago, and have been really impressed with its stablility and the tracking. I think that for the money this is a great boat, and if I ever have the need for another kayak, I'll look at this line again!

Customer Service:
Very helpful
