Paddlers whose total load stays under 70 percent of the stated capacity (about 385 lb). Check the listing's dimensions against the kayak size chart for your weight before buying.
On the water: Wear a properly fitted, USCG-approved life jacket every time, dress for the water temperature rather than the air, and check your state and local paddling regulations before you launch.
This is researched general information, not professional advice. Sizing figures are starting points: confirm against the maker's own sizing chart and the capacity printed on the boat or board.
