    Unfortunately the RVR 119 looks like a well made kayak however its just too heavy at 85 lbs. for most people to load and unload not to mention drag up and down to launch. Weight is always one of the first questions I hear when discussing kayaks. For river fishing I’d be looking for something in the 50 lb. range!

    I’ve had it for 6 years now, going on 7. Thing is a workhorse. Caught a ton of fish, travelled literally hundreds of miles. It has wear. But the bungees still have elasticity, and there’s no sign of the boat stopping. 5/5.

    Hey John, compared to the SS127, what was your perception of the stability when standing to fish, sitting up/standing down, etc.. in the RVR vs the 127?

      @CreekFishingAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว

  • @riverpirate1022
    @riverpirate1022 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I wanted to like this boat when it came out but lack of a PDL drive is a deal breaker for me.
    You can't really launch and go upriver alone without a PDL drive or electric power, you can only float down which requires a shuttle service most of us don't have access to either.
    Paddling these big heavy fishing kayaks is a joke and waste of time and energy.
    I have NK 180 power now, but I always have my PDL drive with me in case that fails.
    You should never rely on electric power alone, especially if you go out fishing alone.
    Fishing itself is best done with the PDL drive, the electric drive is for covering distance and saving time and energy.

    • @groupedup

      A kayak made for river fishing, and not just for solid floating dock standing, can be rather efficient paddling upstream.
