Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Great price, great sturdy quality. Lots of room for two, with room for 3 at a push. The colors are fantastic as well. The new one and the second from the first purchase are both perfect.

Straight line speed and performance is excellent. Maneuvering or turning takes a little more effort but very do-able once one gets used to handling characteristics. Very stable. Good tracking and fast.

It's a big upgrade from two tandem inflatables with the same people since the second kid can sit in the center molded seat. The dry storage stays dry. The only problem is if it is flipped the storage fills with water.

Cons

Kayak was purchased new for full price and arrived used, dented and scratched. Cosmetic imperfections on the kayak & packaging was listed as damaged. Looks like a forklift skewered it.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

Easy to handle, tracks real well, and really stable.

A good solid recreational boat by a good boat maker.

It goes into the dry storage even if they’re locked and we eventually have to get the kayak out and drain it after an hour or so.

The hull makes them just so thick it's not possible.

Price

These are really great value for the price.

The kayak is a great value for the money, the colors are fantastic as well.

I feel like we got a good product at a good price.

Great deal but if u and ur other person are right at or even just under the 500lb weight limit the kayak does take on water.

Shipping

Arrived promptly and can't wait to hiw the lakes!

Got scratched during shipping but not worth worrying about for the reasonable price i paid.

By the time we got the rack it was too cold to take the kids out, so the first time we actually put them in water was memorial day.

Packaging/appearance

Came packed very well, great first kayak could not be happier.

Kayak was well wrapped and delivered with care.

The only thing i did not receive were the 2 storage bags for the drylok compartments.

Competitiveness

I was a little worried because it was so cheap compared to other tandem kayaks.

I'd probably never pay the price of other similar-style kayaks, but maybe that's because i just don't know what i'm missing.
