I get my 2x2 tube from a local shop called H&E steel. So any local metal shop near you should have some. And I bolted my 2x2 tube onto the frame just drill a 1/4” hole on each end and bolt it straight down it holds really well.

Yea it is, but there’s a lot of 10-12 year olds that watch RUclips to learn and I’m not comfortable showing that to them. I try to make it more people friendly especially for young adults. That does work better though and thanks for sharing it.

Yes it’s definitely heavy, but most fishing kayaks being made today is heavy.

Hope it helps you out.

@@334tacticaloutdoors heck yea man, you made it simple, preciate it, got a 10 foot jon boat, use for crappie fishn, gona put a stick steer on it, actually it was a 1436, I cut it down to 1036, got me a couple 8 foot garden stakes for it, it’s gona be good, especially being able to stick steer and have me a little dial for my speed and foward and reverse, All the sloughs I fish with it is in the woods, in the bottoms, no big wind can get to em, so it’s perfect for stuff like that, got a bigger boat for bigger water

@clayton203 that was the reason I made the video just to show the straight forward hookup. Glad it helps. I appreciate you watching.

Thank you!! That’s a very nice kayak to get.

Today’s price of the Acsend 133X is $1099.99 each location can have special sales or discounts. Contact your local Basspro shop or Cabela’s store to check store price.

I used 8awg marine wire.

@@334tacticaloutdoors thank you for getting back to me!

You’re welcome!! If you ever need any help just ask.

@@334tacticaloutdoors why did you choose to run your release rope through the hull, rather than a short rope and and pulley system on top of the hull up to the beginning of the walking area? I’m concerned those holes would allow water in. Not saying what you did is wrong, just wondering.

@jamiebell5809 I like everything to be out my way and off my deck. If you seal everything correctly it doesn’t allow water into the hull.

I try to.

My pwm is 100 amps

Check all your wiring something is crossed or you have a bad PWM.

@@334tacticaloutdoors this is my second pwm, and my other motor (36 lbs) works perfectly

My small motor (36 lbs) works perfectly with all pwm’s i have

What size motor are you hooking up to it? If the PWM is good and working fine with another motor then you need to check the trolling motor.

Yes the drain plug does work when the hull is taking on water. I control the trolling motor with cables run thru the hull to the foot pedals.

@@334tacticaloutdoors how about a video with trolling motor and rod holders and fish finder setup?😁🐟🎣

I don’t have one on the Acsend, but I have one on my lifetime Yukon kayak. ruclips.net/video/JcMLp3NHjjk/видео.htmlsi=ruKsB_uYTeMgl4HA

If you have to add any wire to the trolling motor to reach the battery yes use 8 awg. Anytime you use a PWM use at least 8awg wire.

If you ever need any help with your hook up let me know.

Here’s my video on the PWM. How to hook up a PWM (pulse width modulator) to control a trolling motor. ruclips.net/video/NdA61Oh1OiM/видео.html

Well comparing this kayak to an Old Town 106 is like night and day difference. The old town is 10’ 6” and the Ascend 133x is 13’. Now you’re right it’s a thinner plastic to keep price down, but any kayaks wear and tear depends on the owner and how they’re taken care of I’ve reviewed both of these kayaks and they both have there ups and downs.

It is not hard once you drill the holes in the rear it’s just access to the entire inside of the hull. That’s the same as opening that front hatch.

@@334tacticaloutdoors got ya, ya I’m installing a 6 inch hatch in the back for access so I’ll just go there and the front! Thanks!

You’re welcome!!

Thank you.

Thank you.

Kayak stability is the same in big waves, or in a pond. It all comes down to the person and if they know how to approach waves.

Remove the flush mount rod holders use a clothes hanger and tie some string on the end insert it in the flush mount rod holder hole then lift the kayak the clothes hanger will slide all the way to the front hatch tie the quick connect wire to the string and pull it thru.

Yes in the floor you can just never drill in the bottom of the kayak.

@@334tacticaloutdoors Thank you so much that is so cool, didnt get the notification, I have a secret Im doing Ill tell you I hope not everybody reads this. Im gonna possibly put a swivel boat pedestal in and seat on top. I just got to pick a pedastal where I can lock it in place when I choose a position.

@CrazyCouchSurfer that’ll be nice. Keep me updated on it.

Thank you for the excellent comment.

@@334tacticaloutdoors Excellenct is my middle name, my first name isnotvery. Lol

lol. 😂

Sounds like the speed control that the extender attaches to has either broke or gone bad. You could probably replace it or just hook a PWM up to it and remove the head all together.

@@334tacticaloutdoors Sorry what is a PWM ? New to this lol 😂

@FishingWithJay04 here’s my video on a PWM. How to hook up a PWM (pulse width modulator) to control a trolling motor. ruclips.net/video/NdA61Oh1OiM/видео.html

You wanna make sure to keep as much weight equal on a trailer. My axle is in the center of the trailer frame which makes it where it doesn’t bounce and ride rough. If the axle was more to the rear it would put all the weight to the tounge and make the trailer seem heavier than it should.

@@334tacticaloutdoors might have to try and do the same thing on mine. Thanks for the info.

@melvinrubio2278 you’re welcome!!

Yea it’s heavy, but the Hobie PA14 is over 150lbs. Kayaks for fishing are getting heavier due to size and features.

That’s awesome.

Yes that is a very good deal. You will definitely enjoy this kayak.

How wide is the seat will it fit a wide ass?

Yea they change sellers after so long. Glad you found one.

Some kayakers do, but they interfere with the Maneuverability of the kayak.

@@334tacticaloutdoors If you are in a kayak race, I understand. But if you are fishing, stability should be more desirable.

A kayak already has great stability as long as you’re buying the right fishing kayak. But most of us get a kayak to fish the areas boats can’t go. Like I said some people add the outriggers but, myself I have no desire or reason to add them.

Thank you, I really appreciate it.

It weighs 125lbs.

The silver piece of the handle that connects to the switch should have a small screw in it. And yes that switch is almost the same in all 30lb motors.

@@334tacticaloutdoors I was given this trolling motor off the boat and the guy took it apart when we got back to his house and tore it apart and that is where the piece(s) started missing. The switch quit working so that is why i started asking questions. I want to fix this and mount it on the back of my boat. Where do you order your switches at?

You would come out cheaper hooking it up to a PWM and connecting a handle for steering. ruclips.net/video/NdA61Oh1OiM/видео.htmlsi=vT9w83HdFnLyIFTq

@@334tacticaloutdoors watched that but are you putting the handle back on the pipe for steering? Or do you have something else to put in it’s pkace

@rickwilson2848 you can make any handle. You can attach it by drilling a hole and putting a bolt through it.

Thank you.

You would need to know the amp draw that motor has to see if the 100 amp PWM would work, but yes with the correct amps it would work.

Yea it hurts to see there size then loose them.

Yes it is.

Thank you.

That’s the main reason to keep it short and out the way when casting, and when u stow It it’s not all the way back into your deck space hitting your drypod. 36” is the normal length for a kayak. Thanks for watching my videos it’s good to hear they are helping out.

Yes it is, to me it’s a lot better.

@@AlleyCatPro24 it was 2” x 1/4” Allen head bolts to mount the bow plate down.

Everything I did to rig this is uploaded on my channel here and I covered how it was done.

@@334tacticaloutdoors ty for responding your the goat dope vid

You’re welcome

@@4bhuggins821 I fed wire through the flex tube and taped it to the cord then pulled the cord back through.

Quick reply! This is the best Xi3 deploy video I’ve seen and I’ve watched many!

Did you install the tubing first into the hull and then feed the cord through using the wire?

@4bhuggins821 yes the flex pipe was installed first cause I had to flare the ends of the flex pipe.

Thank you!! I really appreciate to hear great feedback.

One objective has a really great trolling motor mount, but where it comes back it screws into the screw inserts which to me just isn’t enough. The Bonafide plate you actually do drill a hole and insert a small backing spacer that adds security to me. They are both great options.

I appreciate the kind feedback. That is what my channel is for helping guys achieve the setup they want.

8awg is best from the battery to the PWM and also from the PWM to the trolling motor.

All you can do is measure the inside of the hull from where u install the deck plate to the very front of the bow. Then you can get the measurement on top of the bow the biggest thing don’t get to close to the very front of the bow, make sure you have room to get bolts through and the washer and nuts on. Just get close as you can it doesn’t have to be perfect.

The difference is night and day being honest. I absolutely love my outlaw, but the dislikes was no storage unless I added it harder to add my Motorguide xi3 bow mount trolling motor and it was only 11’ 5” long. The SS127 has plenty of storage much easier to rig easier to mount a bow mount trolling motor it’s 12’ 7” long. Now likes both are super stable, both look incredible when rigged out. The perception is cheaper and is a really great kayak, but the ss127 is a lot better kayak in my opinion.

Thank you for the very kind feedback. It means a lot knowing my video helps and is easy to follow.

Thank you for the kind feedback. It’s greatly appreciated.
