Assembly Guide

  • Paddle power

    No pedals, no motor, nothing to snag. The Rambler is a pure paddle kayak, so there is no drive unit to maintain, no weeds wrapping around a fin and nothing hanging below the hull. That keeps it quiet and light at just 64 lbs fully assembled, and lets you slip over lily pads, shallow flats and timber where pedal and motor kayaks struggle. Grab the included paddle and go.

  • Why you will love it

    The Rambler gives you 10.8 feet of sit-on-top fishing kayak at a total weight of just 64 lbs. Its 35-inch-wide hull keeps you steady while you cast and reel, the open cockpit gives you room to move and organize your gear, and a 308 lb weight capacity leaves plenty of room for you, your tackle and a cooler. It is a full-size fishing platform you can still launch on your own.

  • Reel talk

    Our two-piece modular design removes the need for roof racks, trailers or garage space. Each section measures 67.7 x 30.3 x 10.6 in and weighs about 32 lbs, so the Rambler slides into a hatchback, SUV or truck bed and tucks away in a closet or spare room. The halves lock together with heavy-duty security latches, no tools needed. At 10.8 feet, the Rambler proves you do not need a big truck or a big garage to own a real fishing kayak.

  • Features

    Everything you need to fish comes on board. The Rambler includes a rod holder and a flush-mount rod holder, a waterproof cockpit hatch to keep your essentials dry, a rear cargo area for a crate or cooler, self-draining scupper holes and built-in carry handles. Add extra rod holders from our accessories range to set it up exactly the way you fish.

  • Paddling

    Built for paddle power. The Rambler has no pedal drive or trolling motor mount, so the hull stays clean and simple: a streamlined 10.8 ft shape that tracks straight, turns easily and moves efficiently with every stroke. With no drive gear underneath, you can paddle into skinny water and weedy shallows without worrying about snags, and enjoy a quiet approach that will not spook the fish.

  • Assembly

    Set up at the water's edge in about five minutes. The front section slots into the rear and locks in place with heavy-duty security latches, with no tools required. When the day is done, unlatch the two 32 lb halves and load them straight back into your vehicle. Follow along with the assembly video or the Rambler assembly guide.

  • Seating

    Stay comfortable through long days on the water. The Rambler comes with a cushioned stadium seat with quick-drying breathable mesh and adjustable back support, so you stay relaxed whether you are paddling to your spot, casting or waiting on a bite.
