Our View
We found that the Dagger Zydeco 11 kayak to be very comfortable and compact. We also found it it be very stable whilst paddling, although it does have a tendency to turn instead of remaining straight when you stop. This though is a minor issue when you take into account all of the other benefits such as the comfortable seat and spacious cockpit size allowing for one to easily enter and exit.
The price point for the Dagger Zydeco 11 Kayak was also another attraction as it is priced fairly competitively at the medium end of the market. All in all a great kayak for all paddling enthusiasts.
