Ocean Kayak Prowler Elite 4.5
1 review
Great Kayak – I owned a prowler elite for a few years and it was an excellent Kayak! Pros: - Very stable (I was able to stand up and fish in the calm water) - Quite fast - Very safe, only time I didn't feel safe was due to a shark busting up the surface 2m away from me.. not the Kayaks fault. - Tracking with the rudder in swells and wind is exceptional!
- Plenty of storage space! I was able to pack it full of camping gear and go camping with it and all my fishing gear. (I even took the 3 man tent once..)
- Generally well made, stainless steel, plastic doesn't fade much in the sun, specially designed to handle it.
- The seat is amazingly comfortable.
Cons:
- fairly heavy/cumbersome. (30kg plus) I busted my butt one day lifting it above my head in high wind, to get it on the roof racks. Stable, safe, fast, tracking, storage Weight

I purchased my Prowler 3 weeks ago. Great kayak which runs nicely for its size. Very stable and with great support and advice from the dealer, it exceeded my expectations. After having a 2.7 metre yak previously which was just not a good fit, this is heaven on a stick. Did a 12 klm paddle second time out and I am not fit. A ery happy camper with this product and its not made in China. Happy days!
