Here is a 1980's vintage scrambler. I used to dive and surf in it way, way back.
Now, I graciously hand it down to Roman, who immediately designed and fabricated the box in the back equipped with rod holders. At first I was concerned because the kayak is actually a little "tippy" (and for good reason as I used to lean way out and carve into the face of the wave) but Roman seems to handle it well. In this picture he's in a lake, but he has also been off-shore with it as well.

The scrambler was designed to transport a SCUBA tank and gear so it can take a sizeable load, but balance will be an issue. I've spent many countless days paddleing this kayak over many miles, but there are better models available for long distance (XT). I also used to "rock-garden" and " rock-hop" with this kayak also because of it's short length. The most noteworthy aspect of this kayak is that it is truly indestructable and versatile. Mine is pushing 30 yrs and is still going strong!
