Just saying, seems the article might be incomplete.
And that kayak looks like an accident waiting to happen. Long, skinny, weight in the back... Again, just saying.

In the photo, he might have a dry suit on? Hard to tell what he has in the back, but overall looks good quality. Stealth kayaks are made for South Africa where they frequently launch through big surf and fish nasty conditions. They have a very low center of gravity, and though I have never used one, many swear that they are much more sea worthy than most other brands.
