My brother paddled a Vapor 10 for a few months that belongs to his brother-in-law. He's not a big guy, 5'7 and 175ish. He reported the seat uncomfortable and the dark green to be rather hot in the summer. Also the rod holders will have you looking like a shrimp boat while you paddle around. Basically they are turned 45+ degrees outward from the hull.

He's not paddled it since we picked up an Ascend FS12T and the brother-in-law has never picked it back up either...

I have a vapor 10 and i like it I'm 6'3 220 and I do fine in it long periods of time but a better seat would be nice I'm ready to upgrade for sure I want a tandem and just ready for something new I've done all the options myself with a rivet gun just extra eyelets and rod holder was going to put a fish finder but thinking I'll save it for my big tuna for the price and money I have in it I can't complain it served every purpose I've thrown at it

If I had to get a vapor again I'd get the angler addition

I'd also look at the WS Pungo. My wife has the 10 footer and I have a 12 and they are great yaks. I fish out of mine exclusively during colder weather and it is a very good fishing platform IMO.

If you want a nice SINK the Jackson Day Tripper is the one to have. Check it out here.

The Jackson Ibis looks like a fun little SINK as well. It's got the Elite Seat for hours of comfort.
