Very good review, I have been paddling a Tuna for a few months now and I love it, the weight does become an issue if your putting it on an SUV like I do. The wind factor can get to you but the addition of a stake out pole, a rudder and an anchor has helped to the point of it no longer being a bother, I am eventually going to trade the anchor for a heavier drag can setup or maybe a mushroom anchor, haven't decided yet.

You mentioned shortening it by a foot and adding a large compartment up front. If you did that then wouldn't you then have a Coosa?
Just one more cast!

Nice post, this kayak is growing on me the more I use it, a lot more versatile than I originally thought.
Lynn KI has 2 in stock that I am aware of

Name dropping isn't needed, prices, even sake prices are set by Jackson not the dealer.
