Capella 173 I wouldn’t buy without trying…been there done that…looking for direct feedback from users I sat in a 173 in a showroom a couple of years ago…the memory sticks since it was a comfortable fit I agree that most all boat reviews are positive…some seem genuine, some are dazzled by their pretty purchase I’m just looking to narrow the field with first hand information from

The deep-v hull helps with speed when heavily loaded, and the rockered stern keeps the boat nimble The 167 is an improvement, and brings this mid-sized Capella in line with the rest of the boats in the family, but should you come across a used 169, it is definitely worth a test paddle Happy paddling Brian P H Northeast Guy
- Old P H kayaks, specifically hull failure, thigh braces and skeg . . .
I acquired an 2005 P H Capella RM kayak Unfortunately, it did not come with thigh braces or a skeg It has a cable housing for the skeg Has anyone installed a skeg? Is is something that I can do myself?

Capella 169 I checked your previous posts and see that you are a 130# female who is paddling a Walden Vista, which I think is a 12 5 foot entry level kayak Your posts ask opinions on a variety of equipment, and I am guessing that you are not an expert paddler (neither am I ) Check the P H website

The Capella 163 fit well, I think it has a little less room in the cockpit than the Tempest That concerns me a little in that I like to paddle into December, with a drysuit and fleece pants, but I think it would still be do-able I think there is a little less room in the foot box of the Capella than the Tempest

The Capella is my playboat, and I think an excellent one The other point In my experience almost all skeg boat owners I’ve paddled with deploy thier skegs quickly (and for perfectly legitmate reasons) the moment directional control comes into play If you deploy the skeg, you have a whole new vehicle

Can anyone speak to the difference in the P H Capella 161 and 163 other than the obvious load capacities, length, and width? I have the 160RM but that is going to the wife and I am looking to upgrade I am leaning to the 161 as it appears on paper to be closer to what I have than the 163 I am 5’10” 180 but all torso and arm just a 30’inseam Thoughts? Am I splitting hairs here? I

My Capella 163 has the serial number scratched into side near the stern The last 2 digits give the year There are a number of different Capella lengths and may be either rotomolded (RM) or not They are not all equivalent, differing in various ways Mine is fiberglass (some diolen) - I don’t think the 163 came in rm style The 163 is my spare kayak and can work for somewhat larger people
