Are you sure it's a Frenzy Malcolm? Ocean Kayaks do that model.  Terry |

Just be aware mate that they are primarily designed as a flat water boat. Don't challenge it too much on the sea. Terry |

Glad to see you are pleased with the Lure but as terry said these kayaks are made for the USA fresh water fishing and not salt water. Both Terry and I have Jackson kayaks who developed these higher seat kayaks which other companies are now starting to make themselves including Feel Free and just as an example the Cuda 14 is classed as a sea capable kayak as Terry uses but the Cuda 12 which I am using at present is not classed as a sea capable kayak but I only use it on fresh water anyway so it doesn't matter. The point is that you must be careful in rougher seas as you may well find it has limitations on the sea with a higher seat position, even when set low it is higher than other kayaks and at 11.5' it is still a smaller kayak than most that are used on the sea.
