Did a full day river trip and about half way through my 70lb daughter join me in the kayak,she was tired of being in her kayak. The kayak took the extra weight (I am no slim-jim--+290)and performed great.. just purchased mine.

I tried this kayak for the first time and was really impressed with the initial and secondary stabilization. You have to rock this kayak real hard to capsize it. The seat is adjustable so you can find a comfortable position for paddling. The Vapor tracks well enough without a rudder. It would be easy to load enough gear for a weekend if you don't take the fridge and kitchen sink. The dash is a far reach for me and the rod holders don't have caps on them to keep splash out. Overall I like this kayak and hope to do some fishing with it soon.

I just paddled this kayak today for the first time. I am 5'10, 259 lbs. Very comfortable for me. Photos showed that my 135 lbs son had about the same water displacement. Seat back is very comfortable. I was only in the craft a few minutes and felt seasoned. Plenty of room for a small tackle box, rods, and a small soft sided cooler in the cockpit. Initial stability is great, and secondary is only better. I wouldn't hesitate to spend the day in it. Dashboard is a bit of a reach...
