I own 3 of this particular model. This years improvements carry
over 2014s molded in carry handles and add a new water right
click-lock hatch seal. Great kayak for one person with fair amount
of storage room. I am heavy user ocean/ICW/lake works well for
all. Anything above a light chop expect to get wet. Kayak sits low
in the water. comfortable enough for long rides. I don't use the
included seat, but it is also very good.

I have been very happy with the Caper Classic package I got from
Austin Kayak, and I plan to repeat the purchase in a few months. I
first saw a Caper on a river in the eastern USA. Two Labradors
were taking turns using it as their resting platform after swimming
in the river. They leaped on and off, and despite seriously rocking
the kayak, it never tipped over. The man aboard the Caper seemed
unimpressed by its stability. I, however, decided to buy one then
and there. My Caper is shared with a limber 9 year old perched
aboard, and she does most of our paddling at her insistence. It is
very stable in moderate chop or the wake of speed boats, or both at
once. We have yet to tip over. It tracks easily, and I am impressed
with how little effort it takes to move us along even with a decent
headwind. The seat that came with the package offers some
comfort, but I added a good quality garden kneeling pad with a
handmade tailbone cut out that helps with an old tailbone injury. I
upgraded the PFD to one that has front pockets that allows me to
keep a phone or small camera on hand. I have a dedicated
backpack in the hatch for all of our small gear, kid snacks, etc, and
we carry a 1/2 gallon water jug and a safety throw bag bungee
clipped on the rear deck. It has worked for us for very many hours
of family enjoyment. I highly recommend the Caper for its stability,
tracking, and great storage!

I just love my Caper Kayak. I ordered it in Envy Green and Its
beautiful! It arrived on time and in perfect shape. The bow hatch
holds all of my goodies. The Caper gives a smooth ride. Never a
feeling of wanting to tip over. I ordered the Scupper plugs but
haven't used them yet. The back open storage did collect some
water, and got everything wet. The holes are to small for the
Scupper plugs to fit. If I need to keep something dry I will just put
it in the front hatch no worries.
