Kraken

[Kaijuu]

Haven't had it long enough for a detailed opinion but hears the short term thinking.

It's long and heavy, had an Outback before so no huge difference in weight once loaded. I do use an hitch extender so it's very easy to load on my truck.

Had to change to a paddle type cause of knee issues. Kraken paddles very well and the rudder helps with getting the big boy around and makes for easy paddling without changing up strokes. The seat's comfy as any, adjustments can be made to compensate for load changes or even launching and returning thru swell.

Just got my bait tank rigged so no comment on placement or performance yet.

Front hatch is good for long term storage but not easily accessed while at sea. Center hatch has good storage. I haven't tried rod storage there yet.

OEX Mission Bay has one to demo, just call em. If you live in the SD North County you're welcome to check mine out.
