My first kayak purchase was a Crescent Ultralight. I didn’t like the elevated seat, a little unstable and after I flipped over for no reason, I was done. Second kayak is a Jackson Staxx. Layout is perfect!!! Love me medium cooler right behind me, room for extra stuff and a small dog, room to camp (if I decide in the future). But I cannot keep up with anyone!!! Plus, it is wide and bulky making it very hard for me to manage (load, carry, etc) . I am a 5,6”, 165lb female. I kayak mainly creek, river, shallow waters. I like an open top, soaking up the sun is part of the fun. Should I look at a Pack Boat? Is there a kayak at meets my needs? The Hurricane’s look like a nice option, but I am worried about rocks (not that I have ever hit any…yet). What are your thought and recommendations?
