The Night Hawk is one of the most graceful birds on the wing.
Light, sleek and nimble, the Night Hawk 16 moves through the water with ease and carves turns with a slight lean. The moderate initial stability transitions to a solid secondary as you lean with no surprises in store. This kayak invites you to expand your paddling skills and rewards you for doing so. The retractable skeg expands the range of performance of the hull. Incremental deployment of the skeg will neutral the effects of wind and waves allowing you to focus on where you are going. Rigged for open water, this slim, sporty kayak can haul enough gear for a trip of several days.

About the reviewer
I'm 13, not really athletic, but I can kayak for ever and I'm not the strongest but I didn't really need to be with this kayak.Test environment
I tested this kayak on a flat day - no wind, no current, no anything, and I also tested it on a day that a tropical storm was coming in, so heavy wind, big waves, huge currents.Review
On the day with no wind it ran so smoothly I went with my dad and his friend. My dad was on a sit on top and his friend in my old old town otter sport. I was just cruising in this thing and it was goin fast and with the skeg it couldn't go any better. when little waves came in they were no problems.This kayak was a little bit hard to turn but it was no big problem.
I was kayaking for about 3 hours and I still felt fine - the seat was very comfortable.
The only problem was with a short life jaket my shirt got caught up in it and it bothered.
On the day with waves it was really hard to start but once I got it..... it still was hard. When I got against the wind straight on it was really easy and it really took on the waves well. With the wind to my side it was harder but with its low profile it almost felt areodynamic and it went right over the boat.
The last thing I have is the foot pedals: they are amazing, fit right to my height.
Conclusion
Overall this is an amazing boat so I would recommend this to anybody who wants to have the best kayak experience.Review
