Congratulations!
Thank! I cant wait to get her out, hopefully tomorrow.

Thank you! I thought it was pretty reasonable as well considering they're full fiber glass and hand built with a pretty intricate design with dual hulls (the fish hatch inside the main hull is a separate compartment, the live well between my legs is a separate compartment, and the dry storage behind the cockpit is a separate compartment), and even with a carbon fiber wing paddle, a lithium ion battery, and a new 7" ff, I am probably in it for less than 4500 bucks.

However if one were to opt for the same model in carbon fiber, that price will jump by about 2 grand .

Thanks Harry.
These kayaks are surprisingly stable due to the cockpit position and the hull shape. Lots of rocker, and the paddlers butt/hips are actually below the waterline when in the seat.

Thanks, I took it out on Sunday morning for a couple of hours. Some of my first impressions from the paddle will be posted below.
