5more then I could have expected
By 8utcher
I knew what I wanted, and did my research. I wanted a fishing kayak, one that was a little shorter, that I could easily hoist on my shoulder, and walk a decent distance without killing myself. I am 6", 225 lbs, and slightly bulging in the middle. and I also needed one that would be able to accommodate me as well as whatever I need, according to what I am doing. When this kayak arrived I was impressed at the workmanship and overall quality upon getting it out on the water I am simply amazed. The cockpit is spacious and easy to get into. The dashboard with cup holder and two cavities were very well spaced, with the lowest part of the wall going into the cockpit (if something drops, it will probably drop into the cockpit.) I was so comfortable that I spent large portions of the day just sitting, watching my bobber do absolutely nothing, and feeling no ill will about it. At first I was a little unsteady, had not been in a kayak in 7 years or so. After a little time I was gliding smoothly, able to access all parts of the boat including the elastic rigging in front without rocking. I meant my first trip out to simply get used to how the kayak moved, figured I would just paddle around all day, getting comfortable. I brought the tackle and pole, but did not think I would use them. Within an hour I was kicking myself for not rigging my anchor so that I could fish without drifting around. I planned to stay out for 3 hours, when that 3 hours was done I wanted to stay out for the rest of the night. The adjustable seat was more comfortable then I could have hoped, as I got no numbness, tingling or strain. This kayak tracks like a dream, when you hit a decent amount of speed it moves like it has a motor. Turning is easy, as well as spinning in place.
I recommend this kayak, ample space and comfort for a bigger guy, nice usable dashboard, and plenty of capacity and room to bring whatever you need.
Love it, can't wait until tomorrow, going out again.

5Awsome Kayak!
By Michelle Zeigler
My Old Town Vapor 10 is awsome. I am new to kayaking and test drove both a sit in and a sit on top before making my purchase. I love the openness of the sit on but the warmth of the sit in. I decided on this kayak because of the open cockpit and I do not regret it at all. It's like having a little of both types of kayaks. It is closed in enough that I stay warm in the cooler temps and is open enough to be able to feel the air circulating around me. I am able to recline back and put my feet up on top when I've been sitting too long for my legs. It's very easy to reposition myself whenever I want to. The only thing I would change is the molded paddle rest is too far forward to be comfortable for me. I am 5'3" so I have a shorter reach. I also weigh 210 lbs and still I do not sit down in the water very deeply. I use it for photography and it is very stable and tracks well. It is very comfortable and I can spend the whole day just putting around the edges of lakes shooting nature but when needed I can move across the water quickly and cleanly. I was actually able to move up beside a baby water turtle to within arms reach! I can't say enough about this kayak and I would definatley recommend it. My husband even wants to take it from me and he's 6'1". There may be a 2nd Vapor in our future! :)

510 feet Vapor 10 Angler
By Mr. Fisherman
This Kayak is awesome! I was looking for something for myself so I could go fishing in the local pond and this kayak is perfect. Love the rod holders in the back and there is enough room in the cockpit for me and a big tackle box. It is almost as sturdy as being in a john boat but I wouldn't try to stand up in it. The anchor is probaly the smallest one you can get so don't count on it holding you in any real current, but it works for the most part. The day well does not come with a cover, but since I use it to hold my cooler I wouldn't have a use for one. Seat is comfortable even after being out for 5 hours, also the thigh pads are a plus.

I used the Amazon free super saver shipping for my order and the kayak arrived in a week. ABF was the shipper and they called me to let me know when it would arrive.
