Great for Swim Support

Test environment

Chesapeake Bay, 4.5 mile swim, 7.5 mile swim.

Review

With 2 paddlers, there is still a center seat for a swimmer. If you paddle solo, you will need to rig a seatback for the center seat. Solo paddling in wind up to 25 mph is no problem.

Conclusion

A good boat. No in-boat storage. Get Scupper Pup wheels for car-to-water transport. Class II-III rapids ok.
