If you go out on your own can you manhandle a tandem?

Whats to manhandle? The Oasis is only 14 and a half foot long, and I have been out in mine many times on my own.

It steers really well as it comes with the large rudder as standard, its light for its length.
It is a lot faster than my PA as a single person kayak and if set up well as a single has so much room its not funny but can also work for two.
