What Users Are Saying
The whole storm ultra light is something to stay away from. Bulkheads not sealed, plastic is so thin the seat rivets punch through the hull when you simply sit in the kayak on the ground to adjust foot pegs. All fittings are super loose. Seat cannot be worked on as it was put in before they glued the hull and deck together. Oh! And the handles pull out and you cannot replace the bolt because it is too far of a reach. And little to no warranty communication.
