If I may suggest, you could doa very interesting video, going down one of the large rivers floating into the James Bay, either in a sea kayak or a longer river touring kayak.
Hi Ken, we love you videos. We're certainly going to visit many of these places. (We're not too far away so that helps.) But can you make the videos longer? We'd love to watch all night long. Thank you!
Another great video! I found all the disparaging the comments about you being in a Pelican (the Maxim to be precise) disappointing. Not the boat we're used to seeing you in but at least you're out on the water. Say what you want Pelican has been making kayaking affordable for the masses. They also have some excellent day touring boats but mostly cater to the recreational kayaker. Elie kayaks was their higher end brand but I believe it's been merged under Pelican. Oh and they also own Wilderness Systems, Perception, and Dagger making them one of the largest kayak manufacturers in the world.
Thanks! I totally agree... Any kayak is better than no kayak. :) More importantly, for many people, this is the RIGHT kayak to have. An affordable, but well-built kayak that allows people to get outdoors and enjoy our natural playgrounds. Could I have had a little more fun in a higher performance kayak? For sure. But that's not the main reason I was out there. I was primarily out there to explore a new place and share that experience with a new friend... It was another magical day on the water!
Ha! Good question... To be honest, it didn't bother me once I was paddling. Since we were filming, I wasn't trying to cover distance, or get anywhere quickly... we were just out for a cruise. If it hadn't been comfortable, then I would have been bumming. :)
HA! Well put. I wasn't planning on paddling the Maxim's... I brought my Trak Kayak up there, and realized there that I forgot the whole cockpit coaming for it. I had taken it out before the trip to adjust the placement of the thigh hooks and forgot to put it back in the bag. Yeah... I was bummed. At that point though, I was just happy to find any kayak!
Why isn't this channel huge?
Outstanding production quality!
Props & respect to you folks.
Thanks for the kind words Rick!

Ken after having paddled so many top of the line performance kayaks in your time,. How frustrated were you to have to paddle that kayak?

@@PaddleTV I figured you could have fun in even a "junk" kayak.
Baby Bathtub Boats??? Totally wrong to be paddling in the Big Water!!
