Venture Flex 11-A great little kayak

About the reviewer

Construction worker, green recreational kayaker

Test environment

Susquehanna River, windy, and 1 foot waves

Review

I was a little concerned with the water conditions. The wind made the boat turn to the right, but floated great, stayed up in cross waves. Rolled with the swells, but wasn't pushed. Put the skeg down, and the wind problem was solved, tracked straight as an arrow. The boat seemed to have good speed for it's 11 foot length. I really enjoyed this kayak.

Conclusion

As a beginner, I had a great time on the water with this kayak, although more time would have been better. Liked it so much, I am purchasing one.
