Reviewed by: Fritz ,  Paddler

Summary:
I've had this boat for several seasons and am pleased with its appearance, speed and maneuverability. I have found that the stern compartment takes on water in high waves, around the integral rudder's pivot mechanism, and haven't been able to completely solve this. Also, in rough water, the rubber bow hatch area's configuration is perfect for launching a gusher of water right into the paddler's face every time the boat pierces a wave.

Customer Service:
Great service by Fluid Fun! One of the rudder control cables corroded and failed. The dealer supplied me with new cables at no cost, even though the boat was out of warranty.

Similar Products Used:
Rominy, Necky Narpa, Featherlite and Folbot folding kayaks.
