Looks nice but with a hull weight of 72 pounds probably more like 90 pounds with extras on it you mine as well get a boat. Just like the PA cool to fish from but near impossible to bring across the sand. Bigger is not always better. Sorry. We as Kayak a Anglers need to be giving the right kind of feedback to the builders. We would like all the bells and whistles but still have a kayak and not a Boat. The challenge is to keep it light and stable with all the bells and whistles. Innovation is not just adding more stuff. We need to be able to launch where boats can not. With a 90 pound yak we are limiting or great sport to harbors and bays. Give our backs a break and innovate a light weight fishing kayak Please. Sorry for the rant.
