Black Pearl LV fits paddlers up to approx. 85 kg. It may seem small at first glance, but trust traditional wisdom: after a short getting-used-to you will feel more relaxed and comfortable in the tight cockpit than clamped between supports in a large one. For lighter paddlers it may be a tad large, but it is still smaller and better fitting than most kayaks out there.”
