4nice fishing yak
By Mike from WNY
This is a nice sit on top fishing kayak at a great price! The kayak comes nicely equipped. It has a large dry storage area at the bow, another small one in front of the seat and a 3rd behind the seat. The bow storage area is big enough that you can slide a rigged fishing rod inside and stow one to the right side and another to the left and the channels made by the scupper holes will keep them from rattling around. There are carry handles fore and aft and at each side. There is paddle keeper at the right side handle and a flush-mount rod holder just behind the seat at the right. I would have preferred 2 rod holders but I will install a second one myself. There is a nice size tank well in the rear and adjustable foot pegs. Scupper holes in front,mid,under the seat and in the tank well. Although this kayak is meant more for open water I took it on a river run for it's first outing. Nothing like a river to give you an idea of handling,stability and speed. The stability is good. You can sit side saddle and move forward and back in the thing without being overly concerned with capsizing. The handling was good through small rapids and no problem guiding the yak through chutes and around obstacles. I bumped some submerged rocks in places where they were impossible to avoid due to low water and so I know the craft is going to be durable. Speed was decent for the type of kayak this is. The ride will eventually get you a wet butt as the scuppers below the seat will allow some water up into the seat area. I am going to experiment with some removable scupper plugs under the seat to see if that helps, but a wet seat is an issue with a lot of sit on tops. Overall I would highly recommend this Kayak especially for someone wanting a good well equipped fishing kayak at a very reasonable price.

5Great Kayak
By DDub
I love this kayak! I bought two of these (ordered through Marine West and used price matching with Amazon price to maximize savings) at $478 a piece. These are wonderful kayaks. Very stable and very maneuverable (turns on a dime like a shorter boat). I'm hoping that the cheaper fittings (plastic vs metal rails for foot rests) last. Otherwise, I can not find any fault with these kayaks. They are relatively fast for SOT's, are stable, have truly waterproof dry wells and are very easy to handle to load on top of a car or a trailer.

5Nice Kayak
By Icepuck72
Nice Kayak! Tracks well, plenty of room for my gear. I wanted a Wilderness Systems Tarpon, but this is a rebranded 2008 Tarpon. Got it for WAYYY less. If you're lacking in upper body strength, try the 10'. Apparently Perception and WS are owned by the same company.

Overall, I couldn't beat the price!!
