No life jackets on the water? Sorry, but that is stupid.

Can I fish off it

LOL, I ordered this from Amazon ($95) on a Sunday and it arrived today (Tues). It's in my garage, inflated and testing for leaks before using it this weekend. My paddles and skeg are slightly different in design. Being an avid sea-kayaker, I see pros and cons to both versions. As far as paddling with a double bladed paddle, you'll have to coordinate with the other person, so you don't hit each other. That's why tandem kayaks are also called "divorce boats"!

Is it ok for one person also

Rakan El-Haj Daoud - 7 years ago

Dee Tee just a bit slower

Rakan El-Haj Daoud - 7 years ago

Thanks for making a video on this. I'm looking at getting this one and have been trying to watch and read up on it before purchasing one.

is challanger k2 a better buy? i heard its material is tougher than explorer's? any thoughts?

Benny DeJesus - 7 years ago

look closely . it has a plug . plug it up good .

Gianluigi Savastano - 7 years ago

I've just bought one my self. I noticed a hole at the back of the kayak. Is that normal? It seems positioned pretty low and I fear the water to come inside

Paul Ski - 6 years ago

I thought the same thing, but they are outside of the air bladders. No water will come in.

Cydny Blakley - 7 years ago

there should be a plug for that hole. its for draining

Don't forget your pfd! Much saver.

perfect review! God bless you

La Padure - 7 years ago

I'm still digesting the part when you say is lighter when inside the box with no air... before minute 4

StarrTile - 7 years ago

IKR ! It is easier to carry blown up

Danfuerth Gillis - 7 years ago

Awesome kayak I bought 2 of them and we use them both all the time in the summer. Here is a video of me in Lake Erie Ontario with it out on the water ( with good waves)

The seats look like they are made of far shit-er material than the rest.

easetube - 8 years ago

the delivery time is not relevant to the quality of the product.

sock saka - 8 years ago

Experiencia personal con este kayak: en menos de 3 meses de uso se despego por la costura del piso generandose una bola que dificultaba la navegacion
a pesar de reiterados llamados al agente de Intex nunca me reconocieron la garantia que era por un año.
muy mala calidad no lo recomiendo

Brandon McMullen - 8 years ago

Thank you for this great review I will be buying one now after watching this.

Richard Carroll - 8 years ago

is it safe for one person to use this kayak?

Dirk Van Echelpoel - 8 years ago

Clean up your audio man, this is worthless.

Dirk Van Echelpoel - 8 years ago

+Brandon McMullen man you've a short fuse, I'm not lying am I? Neither did I say the whole of the video was worthless, just the audio. Fuck sake, what's your issue dude?

Brandon McMullen - 8 years ago

man you are stupid af. He did use a favor this isn't for pleasure. go listen to music or something audio freak. cant believe you took your time to say this is worthless when its clearly not.Dick Van Echelpoel

Dirk Van Echelpoel - 8 years ago

Good for you, I don't have superhuman hearing, so I cannot when he's on the water shooting straight into the wind.

Richard Carroll - 8 years ago

i can hear/understand him just fine.

Diego Mendi - 8 years ago

Just got one of these. Only hoping tomorrow is not windy. Thanks for sharing.

I am thinking of ordering one of these... How do you think it would be with a dog in it with me? Does the material look solid enough for dog paws/claws?

Yoshi0 - 8 years ago

As an ex-dog owner and having just received this boat... I can say that as long as your dog's paws aren't as sharp as a cat's claws, you're good to go. The material is pretty darn sturdy rubber.

Mindrover - 8 years ago

just lay a towel down where the dog is going to be and you'll be fine. I take two Jack Russells out with me and no problems so far.

StarrTile - 8 years ago

I doubt it...I wouldn't risk it.

Tim Hourihan - 8 years ago

Have you tried going solo in this tandem? How did it go?

fUjiMaNia - 8 years ago

+Richard Herzog Ahahahah

fUjiMaNia - 8 years ago

are there Kayak's that you can hook up a trolling motor to it?

Richard Herzog - 8 years ago

+StarrTile Did you replace the paddles? I heard they were not that good.

StarrTile - 8 years ago

+Tim Hourihan No I haven't...only place I would go is in Jamaica and I treat boating like diving, NEVER go alone ;-)

Nelly Avi - 8 years ago

I am not trying to be a jerk or a wise a** but how can you give a review of a kayak that you havent even had in the water yet? Thanks for the vid but I would consider this more of an open box review tban a true review.

Nelly Avi - 8 years ago

+Tamra Thein you are right I stopped after he said he had not had it in water. I did end up getting it. did not like it too much. Does not track very well, the seem on the top of the sides scrapes your fingers almost cutting them. I ended up selling it to my nephew and got the Challenger K2. In my opinion the challenger K2 is way better. Tracks better and is more roomy.

Nelly Avi - 8 years ago

+StarrTile I stopped once he said he had not had it in water yet. I watched it later on and yes he did have it in water. so my mistake.

Tamra Thein - 8 years ago

So you clearly DIDN'T watch the video beginning to end. Check it out!

StarrTile - 8 years ago

+Nelly Avi Hmmmmmmmmm...not sure you watched the WHOLE video, it's in the water....

dabest133 - 8 years ago

StarrTile - 8 years ago

+dabest133 Sorry it took so long to respond, Bought an Army duffle bag, it all fits inside with a little room to spare...easy to carry too !!
