Definitely do the comparison between the 125 and the 127. I have both and I feel that the 127 is more stable but definitely want to see your take on it.
Aliex, you are one of the coolest people on youtube. Your reviews of kayaks have helped me make a very informed decision. If you are ever in the San Antoni or Austin, Texas area look me up. We will go paddling.
Thanks Payne, you comment came at the right right! Someone just wrote me a hate comment for speaking the truth lol 😂 thank your for this positive comment I do have to visit Texas !
yess :) i wanted to do it 100% right thats why it took so long and still it was no perfect, the audio was not the best, i had to really work on it lol... but i know now what i need to do
We need that Recon 120 flip video! Well at least I do, since I can't decide between the Shearwater & Recon 120. LOL Awesome video Aliex! I can't wait to get into the kayak fishing scene.
For the younger folks, you can also stick your foot in the handle close to you for leverage before grabbing the other to flip it back over. Looks like fun stuff during the summer months 😂
Great demonstration aliex. To me it looks like it’s easy to loose your center of gravity because the kayak is narrow, making it easy to flip. But flipping on that perch seat takes a lot of effort
How does vibe matchup to wilderness Recon on stability? I'm 6'0 235lbs an I like to stand & cast with comfort without worrying of tipping over? Appreciate any feedback on comparisons.
Can you do a top 10 list for fishing kayaks under 1000? It seems like content for that this year is really empty. Would like some opinions and thoughts as I'm trying to get a new yak this year! Can you make a vid or list a couple of kayaks I can think of buying. I'm thinking of the Yellowfin 120.
@@guam90 I’m dying to do a 133x series but the robot is not liking my channel too much right now, let’s see what happens. The problem with the shearwater is that the walls are low water comes in faster and flips…ss127 is more stable
@@AliexFolgueira Yeah I’d rather spend the extra couple hundred dollars and get a bonafide but I was really like the 133X one for the price two seems stout and it’s like a little boat
@@AliexFolgueira thanks, I'm curious. Ive heard vibes were tippy which is what steered me away from one before old town. Seeing this though they appear stable, but would it stay stable through 2 to 3 foot swells??? We get them on this lake here in AZ
I would love to upgrade to one of those, but I don't have the funds. I really wish I could work a set amount of hours at a kayak shop and take a kayak as payment.
Dang aliex, I was just about ready to buy the feel free lure 13.5 and I ran in to this video. What do you recommend for ocean fishing the Pacific ocean? Thanks
I am not getting the Shearwater but I am getting the Cubera 120. I know you really like the C-Tug. Do you think the C-Tug is the right chice for the Vibe Cubera?
@@AliexFolgueira will you be adding the C-Tug affiliate link for the regular C-Tug? I do not need the SandTracz version. I live in the middle of the Rocky Mountains.
Great video, thank you making it and getting so wet. I'm ready to buy one now; I just have to find someplace that sells them and has them in stock. Only one place in NJ sells them as far as I can tell. What is your opinion on the Bixpy motor? Do you think this kayak can be hauled on a trailer? I don't think I could lift it on top of my Jeep roof rack like my existing Future Beach kayak that weighs 74 lbs.
You welcome 🙏 Bixpy ?? For Shearwater?? Like hell yeah 😎 pls use my affiliate link when you buy bixpy it helps me a lot ! Trailering a kayak makes it super easy, those roof racks should be fine too, they hold at least 110#
@@AliexFolgueira can you do a comparison video with the competition, like a hobie or old town to see how you would stack them up? Old school video, just a thought
Hey Aliex. I was really considering this kayak vs the 2021 Hobie compass camo. I ended up going with the Hobie but I still have to wait for the dealer to take delivery of it. I was just curious, how does the Shearwater compare to the Compass in stability and other features? Which kayak would you go with?
Walls being low would that be a problem? Isnt the weight limit over 400lbs? I dont need to walk on it just be able to stand occasionally to stretch my legs and knees what do you think. I really like the shearwater 125 plan to buy it with perch and xdrive to use in open water and paddle most other times. What do you think? Originally i was looking at the bigfish 120 and also buying the hobie pro14 as a open water vessel bigfish for creeks and rivers.
@@AliexFolgueira yes i noticed walls low doesnt help me in deciding man i love the looks of this kayak but that does worry me. I need to find where i can rent one for a day before i buy it.
Absolutely need a fatboys perspective tired of these skinny no injury guys that tell you the kayak is so stable but theyget in it and the boats barely budge the waterline. Cmon man be real find a fatboy with bad knees to show me its stable.

Where is an alligator when we need one 😾😜👍🏻👍🏻
Great clip
I asked it to stay away for a bit 😀
Wanted to reach out to you about a recommendation for a on top kayak to use mostly for Wildlife photography looking mostly at stability.
What’s your budget?
plz do the flip test on Hobie MIRAGE PRO ANGLER 12/14 and Old Town Sportsman AutoPilot 120/136. Thank you, Bro!
Which do think is easier to flip the shearwater or seaghost 130
shearwater is way way more stable than the ghost
How is the stability compared to the dorado?
Dorado 10 this a 7
Is the shearwater more stable the bonafide 127
Nop, ss127 is more stable

Hi Alex, another great video. In your opinion, which has more stability, the Sea Ghost or the Shearwater? Or are they comparable?
Def Shearwater feels solid just know its limit
Looks like a nice place !! Looks stable but seems to flip easily . W ater must be cold??
The perfect place for the channel
Where is that community at? Seems like a cool place….
Been thinking of changing kayaks. Have a Vibe SG130, looking for something a little smaller and maybe more stable. I'm 6' 290lb, any recommendations?
The shearwater would be something smaller, I wouldn’t go less than 12ft for you if you want another brand the old town 120 pdl should do the trick
I want one now, great video BTW
Excellent boat

Amazing how much effort was needed to flip it when on the perch. Seems you're more likely to just fall off instead.
Yup you are just falling off the perch, which is good because you don’t lose your gear “hopefully “ lol
