I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

One of the standout features is the built-in Padded CRS + UltraLite Seat, which ensures maximum comfort during long hours on the water. Additionally, the kayak boasts a rear Tankwell with Cargo Net Lacing, providing ample space for storage. There is also a convenient Storage Hatch beneath the deck, offering even more storage options.

Molded-In Paddle Keepers and Side Carry Handles make transportation and storage a breeze. The kayak also features Molded-In Freedom Footwells, ensuring secure foot bracing and added comfort. Additionally, the Self-Bailing Scupper Holes efficiently drain water from the cockpit and Tankwell.

One of the most appealing aspects of this kayak is its lightweight design, weighing just 45 lbs. This makes it easy to transport and maneuver both on and off the water.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is its length?

A: Read the Specs. I believe it's 9'1" - can't remember offhand. However, it fits Perfectly in a 2006 Honda Civic (w/back seat down) with only about 2.5 feet sticking out of Trunk. HTH

Q: The scupper holes are not the standard size. How do you plug them?

A: Scupper plugs are available to order through customer service. They can be reached at 800-225-3865 opt. Customer Service hours are Monday-Friday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturday, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm (MT).

Q: Can you surf ocean waves with this?

A: The salt water will not harm your kayak, however, our Kayaks are tested for flat water. But we have lots of 5-star reviews come in with customers who are using them in the ocean. It is very versatile and would be fine for open ocean because of the width which will give you the stability you are looking for. We do not recommend using it to surf waves and recommend using caution and wearing a life-vest.

Q: 5'4 what size paddle should I get?

A: We would recommend a double-ended paddle with a length of 86.6 in. (220 cm).

Things we like

  • Remarkably steady and dependable
  • Plenty of storage space for a table that can be sat on
  • Easily portable because of its lightweight and carrying handles

Things we don't like

  • The tracking capabilities of the kayak are restricted
