I'm the happy owner of a Big Tuna JKQ15212B717. I started kayaking in 1965 with a home built Folbot. I've cruised the Bay of Monterrey in an eclipse and now I have the Big Tuna. Fore Bay, the Gulf of Maine and the Kennebek River are now my paddle ground. This is the best Kayak I have ever owned! Keep up the great work! Made in the heart of the USA! PS, watch for my vids : )

My Cude 14 is such a fine vessel. Literally everyone that i kayak with complains about how they can't keep up with me, and the storage options for long trips are just great. I don't know that I would ever buy another make of kayak, it's been better than every other kayak I put it up against.

So no one notices (or at least mentions) that Eric Jackson (as in founder of Jackson Kayaks) commented here! Big thanks to EJ for founding and running a company that continues to innovate and elevate all forms of kayaking.

This video just sold me on buying a Jackson Kayak for my first boat purchase. Coming from a 13 year active duty vet that is now disabled, thank you for a great product and employing the American working class.

One last thing and I must ask I didn't see an overrun area on your mold not sure how you pull that off but very cool.

Robert Mikolon - 8 years ago

I must say what a clean, organized, safe looking environment. Good work and I simply love my Big Rig. All the best to you guys/gals.

My Cruise 10 is in route to the dealer! I am so excited! My first kayak and I know I have made the right choice in Jackson! Great video, BTW!

Good kayaks but I'd say ditch the music

Cuivre - 7 years ago

Blame the marketing folks. Decided to go with the 'hippy-dippy' music genre....LOL! ;-)

willf650 - 9 years ago

You got me with this video. Just took delivery of a 2015 Coosa HD. A lot of little things that were well thought out make it a awesome total package in that model. Keep up the good work.

ProCaster Kayakfishing - 10 years ago

Great, great video. Shows that Jackson Kayak is aiming to be one of the great historic global manufacturers kayaks. Congratulations.

BulletsBacon Beer - 10 years ago

I love the fact these are made in the USA by a company who takes pride in their product. It is actually one of the reasons I consider Jackson Kayaks first. I love my Jackson Cuda 12 and used it more than any other kayak this year. I sold two non Jackson Kayaks and will be looking to replace them by Spring 2015. Keep up the great work Jackson. #JacksonKayak +Eric Jackson

Are you still making the Illuminati model?

Andrea Caocci - 10 years ago

+tambs575
thanks, EU dealer said they don't make it more.

tambs575 - 10 years ago

+Andrea Caocci I recently ordered a 2015 Cuda 14 in Illuminati. Dealer is arranging shipping, and it should ship tomorrow. Jackson told me they have a very limited quantity of the Illuminati plastic on hand, and they won't be getting anymore. So when the last of it is used, they are done with that color option. Give them a call and ask if they have any left.

Jeff Jenkins - 10 years ago

Ordered a 2015 Rivierra in TyeDie today and can't wait!

Ariel Rosales - 10 years ago

Richard Ponton - 10 years ago

I have a Cruise 12. Just added a Coosa.

EBarcley84 - 10 years ago

Great video! It's great to see the level of craftsmanship that goes into each individual boat. I've been building carbon fiber airplanes for almost 10 years now and was hoping to see a little of your composite boat manufacturing in the video (I think you make a carbon fiber playboat, but could be wrong). Anyway, awesome product and awesome team!

Michael Bauer - 10 years ago

My Jackson Kayak Cuda 14 already sailing in Brazilian waters. City of Curitiba, State of Parana, Brazil. Very good.

slutty!!!!!!!!!

dgtowner - 11 years ago

EXACTLY why I wanted one of your boats! I already wanted the Kilroy, but the more I learned about Jackson, the more I knew I was getting the right boat from the right company. It will be here next week!

Eric Jackson - 11 years ago

molding the kayaks is a very skilled job- getting the heat, timing, oven action, etc. etc. all exact to make the plastic flow right isn't easy... Master boat builders not only "screw things together" but they trim, cut, drill, rivet, glue, use a router, vacuum form, and hand adjust everything in the boat. Think it is easy? Try building one and getting it through Quality Control!

Steven Wort - 11 years ago

Impressive that they do so much by hand, employee American workers,and use American parts :) A little sad that being a "Master boat builder" involves little more than screwing plastic fittings together :(

Ben Howard - 11 years ago

got any job openings?

Matt - 11 years ago

Waiting for open water to try my new Cuda 12. Great song goes good with the video. Be nice to know how long it takes to make a Cuda and how many they put out a day.

REDDOG830 - 11 years ago

What is the song and artist in this video? Nice video

richard matthews - 12 years ago

great video. Gotta Jackson Coosa. It is my favorite river fishing boat. stable, comfortable and a real pleasure to paddle and fish from. thanks for a great boat

cowboyup1251 - 12 years ago

I want one I can t wate to see the coosa 2013 video !!! Soon please !!! I love the cuda 12 still trying to decide ???

MrNotebookguy - 12 years ago

This is a very old technique that automotive companies used to employ. Such as Mercedes AMG motors alll assembled by one individual. I think the person who build the boat should have his signiture on it.
