Yet another kayak??

Dec 16, 2011

Now that I've had more nautical miles under my skirt, I've decided that I need a kayak that will allow me to advance my paddling skills.  My delta was wide, I couldn't put it on edge, the cockpit was too big and I was getting really spoiled using the rudder.  I realized I never adjusted my stroke or leaned my kayak because I depended too much on the rudder.  So again, more research and this time it led me to an Eddyline Nighthawk 16.  My first skeg.

There's my Eddy.  Has really nice primary stability.  Doesn't feel tippy at all like I thought it would seeing how I was moving from 24" beam to 22".
