Please submit photos of your biceps, triceps and delts. You will be properly evaluated and a kayak designed for your level of "studliness" will be assigned to you.








Seriously, you'll be fine. Go for it.


At the end of the day it seems like all kayaks weigh 300 pounds anyways!

I trade my 9 feet, 48 lbs Sport for a 12 feet, 66 lbs OutBack: and I do what The Kid Says to get my Queen Mary on top of my Cherokee & I'm very happy with my OutBack.
