Looking and Pricing - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Peception Kayaks and Wilderness Systems are both tied into the same big company, Confluence Watersports.

The Perception Kayak seems to use the old Wilderness Systems style of "tupperware" hatch covers. I would recommend reading other people's reviews of kayaks with this type of hatch cover. Some say they come off in rough surf, some say never a problem.

Both the new Wilderness Systems and OK use more secure hatch covers. WS using a quick hinged and latched type cover and OK using a quick strap type cover.

Otherwise, it looks like it is very similar to WS products.
