This kayak is for the paddler who values portability above everything else. Apartment dwellers, travelers, small-car owners, and anyone who wants a boat they can carry down a trail to a remote lake. It is rated for flat water, bays and inlets, and Class I water, so it is a fair-weather recreational boat, not a whitewater or open-ocean craft.
