    Overall very nice kayak for the money. There are few things that can be improved. I will create a separate video pointing things I don't like about the kayak. Thanks for Watching. If you like these videos please like and subscribe. This will encourage me to make more videos.

    I have same kayak. Yes, rides a bit low, but maybe if u only had 1 person in kayak. Also, why so much water in floor? Mine stays dry. (Again, it's a 1 person kayak... u had cameraperson). (I replaced crappy scupper plugs).

      Hey Larry, Riot tested the kayak with one adult and one kid in the front without an issue. I wanted to confirm their testing by doing my own. The water in the kayak is from the extra load I had in the back. 40 Lbs bait bucket and extra equipment. I share the same opinion regarding the scupper plugs.

    great video. Can you do 1 on how you mounted the fish finder ? i am at a toss up between this and the angler 360 for obvious reasons. Where are you fishing out of ? I'm in the st petersburg area

    Have you ever tried a bonafide kayak yet sir

      @Saltloony  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not yet, other 2 kayaks I owned were Vibe Sea Ghost 130 and Ocean Kayak Malibu. I was looking into something light with a pedal drive after my foot injury and Riot Mako fit the bill.

      @@zcolson97 Yes and No. SG 130 is a solid kayak, but i needed something to help me pull out fish away from the structure. I will try to compare both the kayaks in a video if you like.

      I dont get why people leave the scupper plugs in all the time. It's a self-bailing cockpit. If he pulls those scupper plugs out ALL of that water will drain out.
