I can't tell you anything about that boat, but there have been a lot of deals on OK kayaks latetly.
Like these: http://www.sportchalet.com/nav/p/cat...scend&page=all Cabela's recently had a big sale too. I ordered an OK Prowler Trident 13 Angler for $650 and ended up getting the new Prowler T branded model. Can't wait to get it wet. |

Peception Kayaks and Wilderness Systems are both tied into the same big company, Confluence Watersports.
The Perception Kayak seems to use the old Wilderness Systems style of "tupperware" hatch covers. I would recommend reading other people's reviews of kayaks with this type of hatch cover. Some say they come off in rough surf, some say never a problem. Both the new Wilderness Systems and OK use more secure hatch covers. WS using a quick hinged and latched type cover and OK using a quick strap type cover. Otherwise, it looks like it is very similar to WS products. |

perception is a great boat. the owner of perception before it was bought out in the late 1990's was my next door neighbor. the yaks are made in Easley SC. perception has been around a LONG time and as far as the whitewater scene they are one of the pioneers!

I was once looking at the 15' boats but storage is an issue at my house. The 12 to 13' boats are perfect for my storage area and it's enough boat for me I think. So I've narrowed down the size. I do like the O.K. boats and the one thing I have always heard about the WS boats is that they can be a wet ride in the seat. I know I'm going to get wet while fishing and paddling, but even my Cobra I had was a pretty dry ride.
