Sun Dolphin’s Journey 12 SS is a sit-on-top recreational fishing kayak that retails for about $500. It is a great entry-level boat for budding anglers that paddle mainly around lakes and gentle rivers. It might feel tippy, especially for beginners, but the Journey 12 SS is a stable boat that takes quite a bit to capsize, especially in calm waters. Overall, the Journey 12 SS makes an excellent starter kayak if you are just getting into kayak fishing or if you want a reliable boat for some on-the-water exploration.
