During bad

the lake(I know it's not a wise decision but it seems exciting). Has anyone
in the group had or known someone who has had the Dagger Blackwater Tandem
kayak? I'm interested in how it handles in some what rough waters. When I
say some what, I'm referring to waves at a couple of feet in height with
wind and rain.

At 13.5' long and 30.25" wide, it's more of a short canoe than a kayak.
Unless you can get a skirt for it and tie in flotation, this kayak is
not safe for rough conditions. With so much width, it will be easy to
upset if broached in steep waves.
