Lifetime Tamarack Upgrade #1-THE HATCH
The center hatch opens to the entire inside of the hull! My lunch slid all the way to the back on one trip and I couldn’t eat until we loaded to leave! This upgrade is will prevent loose gear inside the hull. It is an amazing hack using just a paint bucket!

Our adventure vacay to Hilton Head Island We timed it just right to be there during Hurricane Elsa’s arrival (only a tropical storm by then). We kayaked a huge bay and went on a shrimp boat expedition and collected some fresh shrimp for supper! Lots of time at the beach with lots of sunburns for us all! Our room was on the top floor and the roof leaked A LOT during the torrent. Lucky for us it ...
A fun loop trail in Elkmont, TN

We hiked the loop trail of The Little River Trail, Cucumber Gap, and Jakes Creek Trail in the historic village of Elkmont in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park! The weather was perfect and of course so was all the Nature around us. We also visited the restored cottages of the Daisytown portion of Elkmont. The NPS is doing an excellent job of restoring, stabilizing, and displaying some of t...

I love the sound of water flowing in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park! It is unlike others places I have been. It reminds me of peace and solitude, joy and fun, and days gone by. This is the Little River on the Little River Trail near Elkmont.

Grotto Falls Hike 2021

My friend and coworker Tim and I would rather hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park than spend our money at the touristy stuff back in town! We got to see the lodge Llamas which was a special treat! We loved feeling the temp get cooler as we ascended up the mountain! Lots of people, it took a few minutes to get a picture of the falls without anyone else in them!

Our neighbors are more FREEDOM-ER than yours!
I just got a 220c for a song. I wonder when it was produced.
The mfg date is usually stamped on the bottom.
Alot cheaper than marine foam
I recently inherited one of these. Thanks for showing me how to use it
The 220 models ended in production in 1983 with the 220k model.
How do you make the lantern turn off?
Great video, I just found this and the yellow carrying case for $2 at goodwill
This review was very helpful. Picked one up new for cheap and it glides through the water so much nicer than my sons fishing kayak.
Does the flint starter work?
Wow that's handy. I never understood the point of the storage when anything you put in there will slide away from you
Thank you for the instructional. I have a 228F with a frozen control valve. What do I do?
Just bought a62 220e never been 🔥… and they was stuck on there for good, but I took my propane torch at a very low setting and just hit the brass behind the knob. Took 5secs
A few drops of penetrating oil, motor oil or WD40 and then let it sit for a day before you try turning the knob.
My name is Iris.❤
I just bought one at a thrift store for $15. It was made in 1962.
How come when I light mine I have to get the flame right up to the mantel?
Different lanterns have different airflow patterns inside the globe. But I still recommend waiting for the hiss to gurgle and then putting your flame source through the lighting hole. Eventually the gasses will reach your flame.
Nice! A plane till is on my to-do list!
One important question is do you know JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR?
He's the only way. I hope everyone figures it out before it's too late. There is a reason Christ is the only one mocked the world over. Satan doesn't care who you pray to as long as it's not Christ.
You didn't explain the spark knob.. I'm wondering what that's for?
wow!!!!! that is bright!!!!!
Very good content now mine works too thanks
I just bought a single mantel one for 10 dollars in a flea market. It's a 286a700, built in May 2000, BUT, it is still in the box, never used, brand spankin' new, There is 2 bags of "mantles", owner's manual, receipt, all there ... I'm wondering if a 2000 model that has never been used would be a collector type thing, or is this a very common lantern, and I should just enjoy it?
Enjoy it
I have a Coleman 220E Lantern, but it is missing that rod like piece to the right of the black knob used for varying the gas. It goes into the lighting chamber at about a 45 degree angle, can you tell me what this is so I can order one? Thanks very much.
I tried your system and the kayaks flew off on the highway. Can i have your phone number or email address please?
2 years later and still waiting to see how to tie them down.
Hey Joe! This video was mainly intended to demonstrate the use of pool noodles as padding between the kayaks and the vehicle roof. But for you I will tell what how I strap them down! I open the car doors and hook a cam strap to the oh $n!+ handles. (My car has 4) then I close the doors. For longer trips I also run lines from the ends of the kayak to the front and rear of the vehicle. Some people tie a loop of string to the hood latch and close the hood. This gives a place ti connect the tie downs. The same can be done with the rear/trunk hatch. I hope this helps!
Can she self rescue in deep water though ? Cause that's kinda important for most people
She is a very confident swimmer and would not have any problems getting to shore or floating until help arrived!
Does anyone know if this kayak will work for a guy about 270 pounds. I know thats about the maximum capacity. But has anyone big try this kayak and enjoyed. I found 1 for sale and need a good beginner kayak. I wonder how much weight you can really push on here. The cockpit seems pretty roomy and can get in and out easy.
I am very close to that weight and over it with gear and lunch on board! It may sit lower but we have not had any problems being near the max weight. The manufacturers always leave a large safety margin between their suggested weight rating and the actual capacity. Go over the rating at your own risk, but there is a margin.
i love my argo 100x ive been fishing with it in the summer months
$ ? 🐊
Just guessing... the 2nd video was never made.
You could also inject expanding foam. Total cost €16.
I'm more of a canoe person. I wonder if just some empty buckets with lids caulked shut and lashed in place would offer more float than noodle's.
What would be my problem if I don't hear the gurgle noise?
Also, when I pump the air it does't seem to build up pressure.
If it is not building pressure, there might be a problem with the pump plunger, check valve, or air tube. Oiling the pump Plunger is the easiest fix. But the pump cup might need repair. Check the leather or rubber end of the plunger for damage or dryness. Maybe remove it and replace it inside out. The check valve is at the bottom of the pump tube and might be clogged. Brake cleaner sprayed there and allowed to soak for a day might help. I’ve never been able to unplug an air tube that runs from the check valve to the top of the tank. (Also did you unscrew the plunger to open the check valve?)
If it builds up some pressure but quickly loses it, that is either a worn out gasket in the fuel cap, or the check valve is stuck open.
So you show how to tie a pool noodle to the top of a car but don't show the important bit of actually fixing the kayaks on.
Thanks for watching! This video is about an alternative to expensive car roof racks. I should make a follow up about tying them down. Thank you!
They make 2 inch thick tri folding exercise mats that would work even better.
Hmm ideas…
Brilliant...and funny
I have the same model lantern, I've taken it apart to see if somethings wrong because i can't get it to light. Seeing how you light yours, I may have been doing it wrong. I'll try it again. Thanks very much for your video.
There are several possibilities to why it will not light. I can probably help if you describe what it’s doing?
@@travisfamadventures9044 thank you for your reply, and attention. I took it apart several times to clean and learn through dissection and low and behold I got it working! Now as far as lighting it, I learned through two instances of large fire eruptions, to light the long nose lighter first, then to introduce the pressurized fuel. However it still has a bit of a whoof of fire but dissipates well enough to have that beautiful two mantle glow of brilliant hissing light. I light it even when I don't need it because I enjoy the process and final result of a successful lantern light. Your video was a very much appreciated learning tool. Thank you again for the video and also offering help with diagnosis. God bless and be well
I need some , what causes air to leak when pumping it?@@travisfamadventures9044
Did you get a chance to test this hack?
Thankfully, NO I have not! But I am confident with it.
i was at folly field during the tornado warning
I can’t find the video that shows how to secure the kayaks to the vehicle.
I have the same Friends of The Smokies plate on my Silverado. go vols! Thank you for video
Would this fit on a Toyota Camry? Hah
yep
Good review. I got this as my third kayak in 8 years. Not a newbie. I discovered, through trial and error, that weight and length were my biggest priorities. I need to handle and transport the kayak on my own and carry it over difficult terrain for fairly long distances. At 10 feet and 36 lbs, pelican makes a very good and versatile kayak. The Eddyline sky 10 is 32 lbs, but also costs $1200.
Thnx allot. 🤞👌😊
Just like you said, these are great entry level kayaks. Thanks & God bless!
You just saved me so much money. Thanks bro 🤙
Can i use a gasoline ?
Gasoline has additives intended to make a car engine run smoother and quieter. These additives can cause problems in a lantern. The lantern will burn correctly with pump gas but the heat and orifice jet will cause the additives to build up inside the generator and eventually clog it if not cleaned often. Also the ethanol along with the additives will cause additional problems inside the fuel fount. Outside of emergency use, I recommend against using pump gas in a lantern.
They make specific duel fuel ones now
Miss u dude! ❤️
Aww thanks! I still have the USArmy lighter you bought for me in Gatlinburg so long ago! It doesn’t fit in my collection at all but it was from you! So it is one of my favorites!
Thank you for this video. I am a female who drives a truck and 2 of my friends had no way to transport their kayaks and asked if their scout fit in my truck. I said I would have to get back to them after researching my options. After watching your video - I am more confident that this method is the simplest and will work. Thank you and blessings upon your family.
Thanks for watching! It really is the easiest way to load and carry them!
I have the 10 foot . Love it
Glad I found your channel I have been watching a few. Thanks for the info
Welcome! Enjoy and have fun! I’ll try to answer any questions you have!
Thanks for the video... Just bought 3 kayaks on Father's day... Been experimenting with different tie down methods.. Yours looks easier than what I have been doing so far.. I will try it out.. 👍
It really is simple enough that a strap across their middle to hold them DOWN and one out to the ends to hold them IN is super good enough! add any extras that you’d like! Thanks for watching!
When you consider the price, operational safety, and simple convenience of led lamps, with rechargeable AAs, from a bunch of manufacturers, it's a no-brainer to dump the fuel out of these lanterns into the tank of your mower, and leave these lanterns forever cold. Never mind that some of the 3-AA lamps can run 35-100 hours on Low.
Thank you so much for your comment! Sometimes a person finds enjoyment, comfort, and usefulness in things others do not.
Your LED lamp will be thrown out and floating in the ocean in a few years. These produce a very bright and pleasant color light and are classics that will last forever. And the soft hissing sound is pure joy.
@@cjist1 In your dreams, son, including the 2 from Coleman, one of which comes with a steel bit, that lets you attach it firmly to a tent wall. Try that with one of your Molotov lamps. Translation: your fantasty forecast's not gonna happen. Miniature LuxPro lantern can fit in my shirt pocket, running. Try that with your fire-bomb. Maybe there's some positive about being stuck in the '60s, and playing with fire. Not interested- better things to do. Silence- YES.
@@jacquesblaque7728 I appreciate LED technology as much as anyone else. I have a few Fenix flachlights that are bright as hell and all of my mt. bike lights are LED. I will take LED on a backpacking trip for sure, but if I am car camping its always with one or two of my older Coleman white gas lanterns. I just love the color temp. and nostalgia that they offer. I have never had a safety issue with them. Give em a try sometime, you may change your mind.
@@cjist1 Back in the day, I used them, but I'm not so naive, nostalgia-seeking or stupid as to use them when leds have it all over them. Gimme a break.
Cool place!
Not only is it cool! But it actually feels cooler there too! It was a comfortable temperature inside all of the cabins with just having the doors and windows open!
