there are quite a few of us on here with kingfishers - great value for money in the first thing than springs to mind
they are fairly easy to paddle being a long yak - they have good storage and pimp up good

they are just a good all round yak - I dont think I've heard anyone that owns a kingy knock them

i went and had a look at the kingie not to long ago, if i was a bit older and got out a bit more often i would go straight to it i just couldnt deal with the size of it., had lots of room for storage, seemed a very stable yak and many flat spots to pimp. im pretty sure there is a full review on another site somewhere, once i get home ill look into it.
cheers

You can't go wrong with a kingfisher.
