Overall m happy. However, ReelYaks should look into their QC process. The rudder control system was rigged completely wrong, and so far I am at least missing the retaining pin for the rudder. There seem to be numerous issues reported on line about the rudder not being right upon delivery. The ReelYak decals on the side are already peeling off and it hasn't touched the water yet. That's terrible for marketing so that really surprised me to see that. So seems like their QC process should be looked into. Now that all being said, their customer service has been awesome. They are responsive and do what they say they are going to do. However, my girlfriend made a good point. what would she do if she were by herself to fix this rudder issue. For me its no big deal but she admitted she wouldn't be able to do the repair. So great customer service or not, that's something to think about
I bought this kayak because I didn't want to invest in roof racks, or the hassle of getting it on and off the roof. It fits in our Honda Odyssey very easily, including fishing rods, tackle, etc. Assembly at the fishing spot takes about 5 seconds, and it is very seaworthy (I fish saltwater for striped bass). I did a lot of research before buying this, and it paid off. It is an excellent product. Already got my first keeper striper on the maiden voyage! (see photo)
Missing the spare propeller and the screw for the rudder handle. It's a solid kayak but if paying this much, I expect everything to come with the product. This makes it extremely annoying.
It met all my expectations. A safe, stable kayak, easy to assemble and handle - even with a two-wheeled trolley - all the way to the ramp.
The Kayak works great. I have the 2 person model. My wife and I both weight 200+ and the kayak is still very stable. With both of us in it it sits really low so I wouldn't take it in the ocean with both of us on it. As a single kayak I have taken it in the ocean with no issues. I have even put a trolling motor in the peddle drive. All in all I am very satisfied. If there were any complaints it would be not enough storage for fishing gear
