Truth. I was wondering how much they paid him an hour to fish in that thing. Now if i were 15..... wink

I took up paddling a few years ago, but with my bad back it was hard for me to accept that I could not handle even a 40 lb boat. I know a lot of sit on tops weigh over 2X that.
I went with Kevlar due to light weight. my little boat is 10.5 ft long and comes in at a solid 16 lbs. My "destroyer' is a Swift Pack 13.6, book says 26 lbs but it weighs about 29 lbs in real life. But, a good seat is key. I can do maybe an hour in the small boat, up to 3 hrs no issues in the bigger one.
