A friend of me bought a Falco touring kayak, kind of a hybrid between a touring kayak and a sea kayak. She was very surprised (upset, disappointed) that the bottom of the boat was hollow: When laying on a flat surface, it rests on bow and stern with the middle section about 5 centimeters above ground. I guess this can't be a production error, not in a polyesther boat. It must be a deliberate design, but I don't understand why. Can anybody explain what advantages this built might have? I think my friend needs some reassurance that she's bought the right kayak. I am quite sure this friend is not a member of PaddleWise, so you can tell the truth, I will filter the answers myself.
