  • Kayak opinion

    What's yall's opinion of the Perception Prism Kayak? There's one I'm thinking of buying.

    They are a thinner, faster yak.

    Good choice for bay or glassy-flat surf. Wouldn't be my first choice if you are a really big guy, or want to go out in 2' seas.

      Milkjug,

      Would you say its very unstable?

        Not really, and you can get used to a bit of unstability, but there is making a fat yak fast.

        If you found a good deal on one I would probably get it. Used non-pelican kayaks hold their value very well anyways, you could flip it for minor, if any, loss if you didn't like it.

          Usually the longer and thinner the faster, and shakier ride. Smaller ones tend to get widder, but you loose speed.

          If you go with that kayak, u will be good, and u will be OK without using a rudder.

            I read on another side the Perception Prism is really tough in the surf. Anyone have any person experience with using it in the surf?
