Purchased a basic sea kayak online during stay at home. It arrived fairly quickly. Staff were helpful with my questions. The entry level kayak is basic but practical, and does what I need it to. I have been out on Sydney harbour almost every morning and travelled 21km return from Rushcutters Bay to Sydney Fish Market (staying within the radius). The seat needs some modification so I will purchase extra seat pads. The storage hood abd wheels are very useful. Very happy! - Benjamin Cameron

I just recently bought the NextGen 10, would highly recommend. The build quality is great with all the features for a good price. Had a great experience and will try get out on the water every weekend I can. - Chris O'Neill

Kayak is very good. But the accessories taken forever to get here in Perth Ordered the accessories on 10 November still have not received them - Ted

I found the warehouse very helpful and accommodating as I arrived the day after the 4day weekend while they were unloading a new shipment. They spent the time letting me look around different kayak models and had one I was able to sit in to confirm I was able to fit it (I'm 180 cm and the raised seating is a tight squeeze, but doable) I ended up purchasing a NextGen 10 Mk2 along with a Lowrance Fish finder (Hook2 x4) and kayak storage hoist. My only criticism are about the Kayak (very minor), with the rudder being very stiff to raise and lower, solved with lubricant, but information to do this would of helped), the sounder transducer recess not being deep enough to fit the mounting + transducer from the fish finder which I was able to solve but reshaping the bracket a little. The "O" ring for the rear hatch was poorly made (large bulge where it was joined) and kept catching the screw cover and broke after being closed a few times. The things I would like different, but was aware of would be I plain center cover as an optional extra as drink holder and rod holder points take up a lot of room that could be used and a non proprietary rod holder mounting that can be used with different mounting systems. - SP Beazley

I am new to Kayaking. I tried out a few different types, and not having great balance liked the wider more stable fishing kayaks.I bought and tried out for the first time yesterday the NEXTGEN 10 MK2It is very stable and the rudder works so well. Seat is definitely designed for comfort. With all the storage spaces I have real plans to do some serious sight seeing.Guys at Newcastle shop where friendly and helpful. Very happy all round. - MBass
