![]() I can wiggle around, keep a small cooler between my feet, jump in and out to swim or explore, all without even thinking about it. I love the Prodigy cockpit because it is completely unrestrictive for me (5'8" 160 lbs). I also paddled the Pungo, but it felt more like a tub than the Prodigy (but it does have a bigger cockpit). A recent paddle day allowed me to expand the models I've tried, and I'll stick by my claim that if you are looking for something that will get you on the water for fun at a very reasonable cost, I don't think the Prodigy can be beat. This is the first kayak I paddled much, although I tried many different boats at a paddle day and picked this one as my favorite. I should qualify that by noting that I live in SE Iowa and use it only on lakes. I've owned a Prodigy 10 for a year now and still think it's a great "fun" boat. Overall, I think this makes a really nice all around type of boat as long as you don't go into anything rougher than class II, II+. The overall size of the cockpit would make it difficult to stay in the boat if you flipped and roll back up, but honestly, the main reason for a large cockpit is so that you can get out easily in the case of that. Some negatives I see are, as with the Pamlico, the width of the cockpit makes it difficult to use the kneepads with your knees under the edges when in any kind of situation that you'd want that(i.e, aforementioned class II rapids). In comparison to the Pamlico, it seemed slightly more stable to me, as the Pamlico has lower, edgier sides that can be grabbed a bit easier and cause you to flip. I used a seals sprayskirt, which I highly recommend, it does a great job of keeping water out. It's width makes it difficult to paddle against current, but that is a trade off for stability. I took it though some class II rapids, and it was very stable and maneuvered quite well. The seat was quite comfortable for me, and the cockpit was roomy. Positives include that it tracks fairly well, even in current, but of course suffers as all rec boats do when it comes to maneuverability due to the rudders at each end. The hull and profile of the two boats is nearly identical otherwise, so being nearly 100 dollars cheaper, I went for it. I believe they both ride about the same height in the water, the Prodigy only appears to ride higher due to it's slightly higher cockpit sides. Overall the boats are very similar, but the cockpit of the Prodigy was more centered, and has higher, more rounded sides. My friend had bought a WS Pamlico 100 recently, and I had tried it out, and liked it, but I wasn't keen on the rear hatch, which I've heard leaks, and really seems like it's just for show.
