you certainly got me hooked on that now Daire, bought one for my kids (21/18/15) and the missus this minute, they really deserve it, veni vidi vici before they are all gone might even get the odd chance of using it myself
I got one as a 'guest' kayak so I could have folks out with me when they come visit, but often I use it myself for nipping about lough corrib if I just want to go out for a couple of km exercise....
no problems with it yet, very stable due to the pontoon shape, though this hampers tracking a tad... but on the plus- a harder workout =D
