I’ve been wanting to to get one for awhile now and glad I did haven’t had a chance to go out yet. I have yet to figure exactly how the rudder comes up it’s a little hard by just pulling the cord out and don’t want to break the string don’t if possible to help pull rudder with one hand and the other the string but not sure if that’s doable. Other than that it seems good. Wish they had oar holders but can install o r for now can use the rod holders behind where I would be sitting. I have gone through a series of trolley carts that fit the bottom of the kayak ended up with a scupper cart.
Very nice kyack. Sturdy and built well. Wish they would make pedal system swing up instead of having to pull them out in shallow water. Also was hard to get together first time. Hopefully will be easier with time. Lastly should have come with the paperwork to register it instead of an extra charge for it. Turned me off on buying a motor.
Very nice kayak. However, the wing nuts on the rudder should be some type of lock nuts or double nuts.
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.
