Greetings........ does anyone recall the URL for the kayak trailer built in
eastern Ontario. I recall that it was referred to in a posting where someone
commented that it would be a long way to ship the kayak trailer from where it
is built to the purchaser in California. The web site shows a few photos of a
while kayak trailer with an extended tongue. Any suggestions? Many thanks...

cheers, Stephen

I would like opinions or comments good or bad about this boat.  This would
be my first sit inside kayak I presently own a Scupper Pro and fish/tour
with it.  I would like the Vizcaya primarily for a touring kayak in our
winter (ha!) season here in South FL.   Thanks

I've tried it.  Of all the Perception boats I've paddled, and I think I've
paddled at least all the plastic "sea kayaks", the Vizcaya is my least
favorite.  I felt that the low volume in the bow made it unecessarily
tippy.   I don't mind tippy boats but if it's going to be tippy at least it
could be reasonably fast or manoeverable and I thought it was sub par on
both accounts.   I haven't noticed this in all the Perception boats but
they all use a similar seat that I felt had me sitting too high.  Try the
Corona, Shadow, or Eclipse instead if your heart is set on a Perception
kayak. I think they're much nicer boats.

I forgot to mention, but as far as I know, the company now has a
distribution system for the U.S. as well as Canada.
