This seems sketchy only because I think the pressure from the stabalizers could crack most boats? Anyone had issues with this?

Mike Ortiz - 5 years ago

yes ive used the in the body shop industry to attatch spoilers to trunks on mud flaps mud guards . they also make them out of a mild steel and have a special tool that comes with an assortment we call them nut certs.i really appreciate your content and look forward to meeting in a cople of months i will be moving to the ocala area

Who needs stabilizers when you’ve got a warehouse full of roundabouts?

Do you think the added stress from the stabilizers will cause the plastic near the mounts to crack over time? It looked like as you moved side to side the stabilizers were flexing a good amount.

Those are the same rubber coated nuts that are used to mount a trolling motor on a bass boat. It's amazing how well they hold, I've never seen em come loose. Now mount double Power Poles on the back. lol

alf3553 - 6 years ago

I’ve had the older version of these for years. I always wondered if the flexing at the boat mount would cause problems but years later still no issues, but I also don’t use them very often. I use them in the spring and fall in Northern Ontario when the water temperature will Kill you if you go overboard.

I started watching your vids, and binge watched them all. Which led me to Bay boats, Cruisers, and finally to sailing catamarans. I am so glad to get back to watching kayak videos.... but hey! We all have to do some dreaming. Looking forward to coming down in the spring! Thanks for all you do, Marty!

Thomas Hess - 6 years ago

Well nuts are quick and convenient...but also a pain in the ass should they be attached to something that needs to be removed. Once squished long term, they deform and don't like to come out. Also, any corrosion (which will happen) makes them just spin with the fastener when you try to turn it out. Many of my motorcycles over the years have used them, and I've cursed each one at some point or another! Great vid, Marty!

Wellnuts have been used to attach plastic windshields to fairings on motorcycles since the 1980's. I'm new to kayaking and was not surprised to find them included in a paddle holder I bought.

Wellnuts are availabe at Dicks sporting goods at a reasonable price. I have used them and they work great. Now back to fishing.

Jeffrey Marchant - 6 years ago

Another good episode Marty !!! Nice pontoons for getting the standing stability one may be afraid to attempt, if bigger...At 280 lbs. I think I couldn't be more confident ....Thanks for the tip !!! Just a reminder...Being well nuts are rubber you may need in the future to replace them if they dry rot....especially around sun,salt or brackish water...Outside of that they're great fasteners....

Essex Mominee - 6 years ago

Did you install your dock light at your new place

Anotherflores91 - 6 years ago

Would mounting the floats near the middle of the kayak work just as well? Looks like paddling around all day would suck with them creating more drag. I also wouldn't be able to reach out to unmount them in the back of my kayak, while in the water.

Kayak Chris - 6 years ago

I've been using well nuts on my kayak installations for 4 years now. They come in real handy for anchor trolley installs or any install where the spot is hard to reach to fasten an interior nut. You have to be careful though, do NOT use silicone or the nuts will spin when you go to tighten them. Also, when you drill the hole make sure it is a true and tight fit. If the well nut isn't snug then it doesn't fasten and hold as well.

Scotty makes great stuff! I had one of their transducer mount with a large Lorene transducer on my inflatable boat. I drove my boat at 8 mph and noticed a lot of splashing on the side of the boat, I learned it was the transducer mount that I forgot to raise before speeding up. It did not break!

Devon Steve - 6 years ago

I’ve looked at these for years now, I dunno, I just hate the size and shape of them, look like mini grey bananas, I prefer the look of the homemade ones on the other boat, I have an ocean, wish I could fit hobbies ones

PDGearhead - 6 years ago

Marty, what is the outside of the stabilizer made of? Hypalon laats forever in the sun, but PVC does not. Anyway, they look like a great addition especially for those who want to feel secure standing up.

I've used well nuts before on a bass boat. With a lot of flexing the rubber goes bad and starts to break/ separate. They are great initially. May have been the load too. Min Kota trolling motors used them to mount on fiber glass

G Sai - 6 years ago

Not a very good design at all. If you have a kayak with softer plastic the drilling points will snap or crack easily. Especially the outriggers are so extended so far out from the hull. The hobie or some others ones are way better, with a solid meta bar right across the hull not separating like Scotty does.

jkdodge - 6 years ago

They have been around for years. Only downfall is dry rot

Cup & Cone - 6 years ago

Same experience for me when used in a high UV area (Florida and outdoor storage)... The rubber cracks after a while and they fail, or they dry out and lose grabbing strength. Sometimes tightening them works, but once the rubber goes, they're basically done. Long trifold rivets are only thing that I've had long term success with. Screws are unless you can get a nut behind them.

Cool stabilizer kit and another great video Marty. I use the well nuts for mounting every heavy duty item to my kayak. Rod holders, anchor rope cleats etc. They come in several lengths for various thicknesses of accessories. I went to Lowe's and bought some 10-20 S/S machine screws 1 1/2" long for the thickest mounts.

Chris Pilot - 6 years ago

Scotty wellnuts must just be something that's gone under your radar for a while now, because I've been using them for attaching Scotty and other accessories on my kayaks and canoe for almost 8 years now. I agree with you -- they are great! And they last (8 years and counting).

Chris Pilot - 6 years ago

+Cup & Cone I'm in Northern Virginia and NE Florida. My kayaks and canoe are stored in the garage (up in the ceiling) at both locations. I've only used the genuine Scotty wellnuts, purely because I couldn't find any other source for them. The only thing Lowes or Home Depot had that was similar were aluminum. The Scotty ones are rather pricey, but maybe it's for a reason?

Cup & Cone - 6 years ago

Just out of curiosity, what part of the country/world do you live, and where/how do you store your boats? I barely got two years out of the rubber well nuts I tried (I think I got them from Lowe's or McMaster). Stored in shaded and covered outdoor, but high UV coastal FL panhandle.

Ed Alan - 6 years ago

Marty, I've used those type of fasteners in the automotive industry for over 10 years. The biggest thing I can recommend to make them any better is a small dab of anti-seize to the bolts/screws before putting them in place. Small one time use packets are available at auto parts stores as are larger multi use bottles. The two most common ones are silver and copper, I personally recommend the copper, slightly higher in cost but well worth it in durability. Keep up the videos, when I see the notification it's the first thing I go to.

RetiredGuy Adventures - 6 years ago

I put the hard foam stabilizers on my Cuda 14 years ago and love them. They will slow the yak down considerably, limit your range and fatigue you early so when I'm getting from point A to B I take them off. I reinstall them when I get to point B. I sight fish the flats in the Mosquito Lagoon with these often.

Thanks for the response! I can stand up in mine. I just can't move once I stand! LOL!

RetiredGuy Adventures - 6 years ago

Plus you have access to the inside of the hull "front and rear"of the Cuda 14 through the hatches. I used stainless bolts and lock nuts with flat washers to mount the rod holder mounts.

RetiredGuy Adventures - 6 years ago

That's exactly what I do in the Mosquito Lagoon here in Florida with my Cuda 14. I use the hard foam stabilizers. They will slow you down and tire you out so I take them out and re-insert them once I have reached the area I want to fish. I am going to change out the rod holder mount to the Scotty "241L" quick release rod holder mount for easier connect/disconnect. I have also found that when it gets a little rough the rod holder that the stabilizer is connected to will sometimes come loose from the mount with the older style non-locking "241" rod holder mount. I believe the locking feature of the 241L rod holder mounts will eliminate this issue. If you have a problem standing in your Cuda 14 as I do you will love using stabilizers!

Bluegills - 6 years ago

No life jacket?

zoffinger - 6 years ago

Florida is pretty loosy goosy with their safety laws. You don't have to wear a helmet on a motorcycle. And you only need to have a pfd with you and easily reachable on a vessel. It is not required to be wearing one on a boat or kayak. Unless you are under a certain age or are on a jet ski. And if you're on a jet ski, you have a whole different set of problems. Haha. Just kidding.

T Ray Prick - 6 years ago

Wisdom Humbles - 6 years ago

Scotty well nuts, glad I watched this because I didn't know they exited either.

Andy_K - 6 years ago

I'm pretty sure that Hobie have a similar thing to those well nuts. Whether they work the same or no is another matter and to be honest, having seen how they work on that piece of plastic, you just sold me on them! I dont care that they probably cost a ton more than a simple stainless screw, they waterpproof the hole and that HAS to be the #1 consideration on a yak! Even if all you want to add is a couple of pad eyes, then not having that worry for the first few trips that you may not have created a water tight seal is worth its weight in gold to me. Thanks for bringing these to our attention Marty. I have paused the video and am going looking for some right now!!
On another note, I have a PA14 (2015 edition) and the hand rail - which is pretty useless and even dangerous when trying to re-enter a yak you've just been tipped out of - would seriously get in my way when adding stuff like those stabilisers. Not that I "need" stabilisers on a 38" wide yak, but the moment I saw them, I thought "Trampoline".... I sail my PA14 at times and having a stabiliser or two which I could stretch a waterproof or mesh screen accross would certainly add to the fun of it.
And here is where I'd like to pitch you another idea for a future video, Marty. How about showing us how to completely fit a new seat??? Not the chair, an actual "normal" kayak cloth seat. Sure, that chair is lovely and comfy, but on open water when that wind changes unexpectedly for the worst and you're being tossed around, having my butt firmly planted on the deck would be much more preferrable. Even when sailing my kayak, I would prefer to be that much lower down as those extra few inches added to the centre of gravity can make a massive difference as to whether I'm likely to be going in the sea before the day is out :)
Thanks again mate and keep up the fantastic work!!

Rather B Fishing - 6 years ago

I have the Hobie Sidekicks. The bar came with wellnuts. You are supposed to screw them in by hand after drilling holes. I have the beach chair on my Revo. I have it set in the lowest potion when I use the sail. I'm going to try to use a Sea Eagle inflatable seat just for the fun of it. It probably will be too high.

Rooter's Backyard - 6 years ago

I sure could use a couple sets of those! Nice video sir!

Charlie - 6 years ago

Seen and used them before. Sometimes a backing plate helps me with offshore fishing to make sure there will be no failures. The floats look to be pointed "outwards". This will slow the kayak down just a little.

Hey zoffinger, I'm looking to purchase my first pelican but right before purchasing it I had somebody tell they are produced as a 2-3 piece kayak. He apparently purchased one and had it come apart while he was in it. Whatams your opinion? Is there a problem with it being multi piece, or did he just have a bad experience?

truth*is*treason - 6 years ago

yes they are used often in auto body industry. bad part is if they get any corrosion they will not come back out. DO MORE FISHING.

truth*is*treason - 6 years ago

could help. just don't get it on the rubber anchor and they will hold just fine.
