Old Town - Twin Otter or similar
We are looking into the Old Town Twin Otter kayak. It seems like a good
family boat, good leg room for both front and rear (I'm 6' 3" and would mostly have the back seat), wide beam for stability and the Poly3 appears to be strong. The boat will see flat lakes 99% of the time. We liked the movable seats, single paddler capability, and wide cockpit. We have two boys and even the oldest was able to sit in front of me in the front seat without being a paddle problem. Questions: 1. Any pros or cons from people that have actually paddled one. 2. How does it track? 3. Anyone used one while fishing? Is the final stability good enough to move about a bit without the feeling of going in the drink? 4. Durability over time of the material? 5. Ease of righting and re-boarding it when flipped? Any other suggestions on brands that have the same amount of room and open cockpit design? It's never to early to think Spring!!! |
