My Kayak
My kayak is an Ocean Kayaks Scrambler. It is 11'2"/3.4m long, 28"/71cm wide, weighs 45lbs/20.4kg and can carry a maximum load of 275-325lbs/125-150kg.
This model has a very large well in the back which is more than adequate for holding my dive cylinder aswell as a spacious bow for my kit bag with fins, mask etc, and a spacious cockpit area to paddle and kit up in.

It also has a very sleek shape to the hull which helps to glide through the water and gives almost effortless paddling, allowing for longer trips out to the dive site. Although I have found this to also make it a little unstable when there is little weight in it.
