Review:	Manta Ray 14.5 Angler. Just got mine today, and I am very satisfied with it. The kayak come with a minor scratch, due to shipping but it is understandable since this has been shipped all the way from Austin TX. Austin Kayak is awesome, and very flexible. I would highly recommend this seller. They have the best price as far as my research goes. The kayak looks very beautiful and durable. It is easy to fall in love. Worth $1000 I have ever spent.

Review:	Since I submitted the below review in April, 2011 for the angler version, I have been using the kayak almost weekly and am still very happy with it. For 14+' it turns very well and tracks perfect. I have been on the lake for almost 5 hours and still find the seat very comfortable. No second thoughts here.

Review:	After paddling a couple of other boats I decided on the Manta ray 14 and really like it. I am 6'3" and 250 pounds. Dealing with ACK was a good experience and delivery went well. I ordered the boat and accessories on line and then ACK called me confirming everything. Shipment was scheduled for delivery about 5 days later but I asked the trucking company to hold off another week due to me being out of town and they said no problem. We then scheduled a delivery time and they called me the day before to confirm and then the driver called 30 minutes before arriving. Packaging. The kayak was cardboard covered on the bottom and sides and had a black cover, and bubble wrap the entire package was covered in thick plastic. Overall a very good experience working with ACK and the shipping company.
