I ordered a month ago. I was not a fan. The weight is nice. The lack of instructions in packing was somewhat annoying but theres a vid on their site. The boto feels pretty fragile. My main issue was how it performed in the water. Doesnt track all that well even with thr skeg down. And if there is wind. Forget it.
Thanks! That's the feeling I was getting I think the oru kayak might do better. I'll do some more research there but it's more the double the price of this one
Thanks for the review! have a 3-4 year old version and the new one being lighter looks appealing. The old one I still struggle with and find the seat to be really bad.
Just found your channel. I asked on one of your other videos for this exact comparison! I'm trying to figure out if the heavy duty is worth the extra $$. Thanks for the awesome content. Got another sub!
No footrest on the BOTO? That reduces your paddling effectiveness by at least half (for me at least). And with that wide flat bottom and no skeg, I can already predict how it's going to track. As for the sharp-ish edge of the coroplast on the port/starboard beams, any well-equipped hardware or auto supply store should have door edge trim that would snap over that edge; that's pretty much what the heavy-duty model has. (BTW, it's bow and stern.....)
mine will be delivered within 2 hrs hopefully!!! the 2024 models seem to be really nice. The new material looks way more easier to work with. I cant wait to get out on the water today!
I just got the blue 10 lb talk tech it did not come with any written instructions and I'm very frustrated. I did look at the video three times and now I can't find it again. I can't seem to get the latches to lock. I can't go on because they don't stay in place if you could show me a picture of how to do it it would be so helpful p it seems very happy on my dining room table but it really needs to go in the lake behind my house. Please help me out Marianne a new owner please help me
Did you get my first message.? p I can't get past the first one because I can't seem to lock the boat into the slots. I have no written plan for how to put it together nothing came in the box with it please it seems very happy to sit on my dining room table but I'd really like to put it in the lake behind my house please send me the directions as well as repeat the video I can't get to the first video it doesn't show how to hook the lox
I have a 200 225 lb corrugated cardboard with laminate over 10 lb kayak please send me a copy of the instructions so I could laminate it and get it every time please I'm an old woman 83 years old I need help@@outerlimitless

How much do you weigh? I absolutely love my BOTO and it tracks exceptionally well considering it’s build.

Im still rocking mine from a couple years ago. Great for fishing !

@@turo3066 you would likely want the HD for any serious use... Especially if you anticipate hitting and rocks or logs
TuckTec makes EXCELLENT PROCUDUCTS, (WE Own 3) Either The TuckTec or BOTO. You just Can't Go Wrong with TuckTec.
Do you know if the White Boto is translucent like the Oru kayaks are?
Looking forward to how they track in water. Liked the Boto, but as I’m 250+, got the HD.
You'll be good to go with the HD... They track well with the skeg down
Thx for that awesome review!

hid other video shows his son doing katches on 2 different models
look at all his videos (its the 2023 & 2024 comparison
Is your 2024 an 8 or 10ft? I have the 3923, but want either the 3924 or Boto. This video comparison is helpful! Thank you!
10 foot. I think you'll find the BOTO to be a bit flimsy for more serious use
