Have you ever seen a child walking around in their parents' shoes? Paddling a kayak that is too big for you isn't much better. The Tomcat LV offers the perfect solution for smaller people and youths.
The Tomcat LV is 20% smaller than the Tomcat Solo, offering smaller paddlers a boat that is easy to handle.
Play boaters will also love the quick, responsive handling this smaller duckie provides.
Like other Tributary kayaks, the LV is constructed using tested and proven materials: a PVC outer shell with double-stitched seams and 20 gauge vinyl bladders for years of whitewater fun.
Is this the smaller of the two tomcats? I originally ordered the smaller one. I am 5'5 and weigh 110 pounds. However, I was planning on using the boat in class 3 and 4 whitewater and decided the smaller one was too small and not stable enough for big rapids. I ended up exchanging it for the larger version. If a person were using the smaller tomcat on flat water I would guess that it would work well for anyone up to about 175 lbs. I hope that helps.
