The 13 ft version was my first kayak, soon to be replaced with an Outback. The Trident is an outstanding kayak, I honestly think it's one of the better paddle-yaks out there. I paid $1000 for mine 2 years ago, at $500 it's a steal in my eyes. Great kayak, surf launches well, easy to maneuver in open water, fast, pretty stable (I flipped once, it was my fault, not like a wake threw me off) no complaints about it as a paddle-yak. You won't be let down.
