The StraitEdge2 Pro combines aluminum rib-frame technology in the bow with a rigid drop-stitch floor for better tracking and hull speed. Self-bailing ports can be opened in rough water and closed in calm or cold conditions. It has two high-back seats with inflatable lumbar support, three seating positions for solo or tandem use, and rod holders.

KayakDIY take: A rib-frame bow helps an inflatable hold a line much better on open water. To compare boats, see all my kayak reviews.
