![]() The bottom is essentially flat under the cockpit, has a deep see both front and rear and hard chines on each side going up the hull which is where the secondary stability comes into play. Considering the design of the hull, that is exactly what should be happening. Lean to one side and the boat tips into its secondary stability and wants to turn that way. The other thing I discovered is you do need to make sure your body is centered in the cockpit and that you are sitting straight up. I tried exactly that and yep, it most certainly turned left, I did the same thing with my left side and had it turning right. I suspect those that say it turns left are right handed and use a little more power during that side of their stroke (right side of the boat). I found that if your paddling technique is fine the boat tracks well. I've read reviews both here and on other places that say it always wants to turn to the left. Just had mine out for the first time in a fairly slow moving river. It's always nice to have a dry well too to stash those things you don't want wet.Īll in all I would, and have, recommend the kayak for a beginner to intermediate kayaker. But once where you want them they are fine. Not so easy with the smaller cockpit opening. The Rhythm's foot rest have to be adjusted at the foot rest so you have to reach way down into the kayak to reach them. My kayak has a long level for ease of adjustment while on the water. The one complaint I have is the foot rests. But after about 30 minutes I had it down. It felt like it cut through the water well, but took a little adjusting from my 12.6 kayak to get it to go straight. The pads underneath the deck are placed well. It has a smaller opening that other rec kayaks, but is very comfortable. It is not too wide so you save your knuckles. It is a nice size for a smaller person, but is also fine for an average size man (I'm 5'10'', 160lbs). Need replacement parts for your Sound 10.5?
