caveat one - it's not small on land.
caveat two - it's not super stable (compared to my barge stealth 14).

my wife went over when she wasn't paying attention and got hit by a ~1' wake created by a motor boat at cabrillo this weekend. she was pretty buzzed already, and sitting cross legged on the kayak, so.. >_<

i had to pull her onto my kayak, and then jump into the water to flip her's over and get back on her's.. also more difficult to reenter compared to my stealth.

Stability is important. She is new to kayaking i think i should buy a tandem for her.
