    I’m 5’11’’ish and my feet rest on the second to last set of rests. If you set the seat up properly it’s comfortable enough for a few hours paddling. There’s probably not much difference between this and the Cruz.

    Looks like a wet but fun day, how do you like the Bluefin Kayak, which model do you have, is it stable and comfortable?

      It’s the Swift 10 foot kayak. It’s pretty stable, I’ve had it in 2 foot waves in Kirkcudbright Bay since this was filmed, never felt like it was lacking in stability, but probably could do with something a bit longer and thinner if you’re planning on doing sea paddling a lot. Absolutely fine on lakes though. You can get an overnight camping kit in the rear storage area if you go light. I went for this one because storage is an issue for me, and anything longer would be a major hassle. At 22kg I can get it onto the roof rack without blowing a disc as well. I’m happy enough with it, butif you’re going to get a trolley go for the ones that fit into the scupper holes, the one it came with is not much good.

      @@ukoutdoors3022 Thanks for reply, i'll have a think, torn between this and the Galaxy Cruz, i'm 6ft and this is a little bit longer than the Cruz. I take it it's comfortable enough for a few hours paddling?

      Tried it once, didn’t catch anything. Probably have another go this year.
