    I just have to tell how much you are appreciated. There is a guy in the RV world named Josh with Haylett RV and his focus is to provide information to educate folks on all products RV whether they are able to purchase from him or not. You are that guy for the paddling community. I guess after this video we should say the Small Watercraft community. We live here in Palm Harbor Florida(across the bay from Tampa) and you make us feel like we are just around the corner. You are a great guy with a great mission and we appreciate all you do.

    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

Headwaters Kayak's videos continue to impress me with the information that they provide and the real reviews of the stuff that they talk about. Love that you did an example of how to get back in a kayak in this video. I haven't seen that before.

    Dan, you make a great point about self-rescue with a motor. How does that work out? With a gas motor you have at least a 40lb weight on the rear, and a gas tank. With a trolling motor, youve got a big heavy battery which hopefully is affixed to the boat in the event it flips...or for the sake of getting back on and getting back to safety, maybe not. In all reality, a tow is probably in order. IMO, I'd stick with at most a pedal drive.

    • @FT4Freedom

    Seems like a really good value. For those interested, an actual Torqueedo rep has a youtube channel ( sorry, I can't recall his name) and his top speed in one of the better, larger Jackson fishing kayaks IN PROTECTED, CALM WATER was 5 mph with the Torqueedo. Of course his Jackson is heavier than this craft. I wonder if this Jonny boat can handle a 2.5 hp outboard. If so, you could save a ton of money on power........and still go much faster than the Torqueedo.

    • @HeadwatersKayak
      @HeadwatersKayak  5 лет назад +1

      Howabouthetruth yes it’s meant to take a 2.5 and I’ve seen guys run up to 6hp. They don’t advise it though. Was Jeff (from Torqeedo) using a travel motor?

    • @howabouthetruth2157
      @howabouthetruth2157 5 лет назад

      @@HeadwatersKayak That's good to know. He was using the top of the line Torqueedo for kayaks, with the deluxe battery ( whatever it's called )........I was kind of shocked that it only ran 5 mph top speed in calm water in his big Jackson. He was comparing performance against the Bixby. The video is less than 2 years old I believe. Of course it blew away the Bixby, and I really like the Torqueedo........but they are way too greedy. I know for a fact it takes far more labor, materials, and machining to produce a small gas powered outboard, vs an electric.......yet they charge double.....or more. It's sad actually. They could chop the price in half, and sell SO many more Torqueedo's, that it would more than make up for the smaller profit margin. The way they are priced now, they are LOSING far too much market share. ( This whole "global warming/climate change" thing is nothing but a proven scam anyway. If people want go after A REAL problem about "mankind vs Earth".......they need to go after the military industrial complex and their 24/7 spraying of chem trails. They and their contractors are spraying all over the world, even over the open oceans.........365 days a year. It's so wicked & despicable. ) I believe you are going to sell the Jonny boat like hot cakes!!! Keep up the great work Brother, and tight lines!!! Long time subscriber Steve........Melbourne, Fl.

    I had a 16’ boat with two seats, 25 hp Chrysler, and the driver seat was up front. If you have to steer in that very uncomfortable position, it needs stick steering. My boat had stick steering, GREAT. The stick was on the right side, throttle on left side. Just my 2 cents about sore shoulders and a good style fishing rig.

    Pretty cool little boat. Good review.
    That said, if you don’t want a real boat, just want something with a trolling motor just to fish out of, you just can’t beat the Pelican Bass Raider. Stable as can be, tons of room and you can just throw in the back of the truck or top of the car. Pelican is also way cheaper.

    • @HeadwatersKayak
      @HeadwatersKayak  5 лет назад +2

      Dre Sted those have a place too. If I lived on a private pond I’d have one with a little trolling motor. With that said this thing with a gas motor would cover miles and you just can’t do that in a bass raider. We are seeing hairs being split in the industry. So many niches being flushed out.

    The speed attainable is directly proportional to the LOA (Length Over All); so, a 10' kayak will not travel as fast as a 12' kayak. The same applies to, for example, sailboats. Also, the shorter the kayak the more frequently one has to make directional changes. My Old Town 10 footer requires more course adjustments than my 12 footer.

    Hey, would you ever consider reviewing the Ozark Trail Pro Angler? It is a cheaper sit on top kayak that is offered by Walmart but seems to have decent stability. I was just wondering what you thought about it. Thanks!

      Well, you could say that for most any kayak. I love this channel, I dig many of the fishing kayaks, and I truly appreciate and admire all the hard work & effort he puts into demo'ing these yaks for viewers, with total honesty. But man, do I ever love my Twin Troller X-10. I've owned it for 2 yrs and 8 months now. I fish more than the average bass fisherman here in central Florida, and after owning quite a few various boats, including 2 bass boats in the past.........I can honestly say, dollar for dollar, the Twin Troller is the best investment I have ever made in any fishing boat. Absolutely nothing, at any price, has the handling, prowess, stability, and comfort of the Twin Troller while fishing, and totally hands free at all times. It can out-maneuver anything on the water. Seriously. 2 large men can't capsize the Twin Troller if they tried, and that's no joke. It also takes my 3.5 hp Tohatsu 4 stroke outboard quite nicely for larger lakes & rivers. It runs about 10 mph top speed with the outboard, and 4 mph using the hidden & protected twin MotorGuide trolling motor heads with twin pedals. The swivel seats are like sitting in a comfortable office chair. 1 or 2 anglers can sit or stand and fish. ( 10 feet long x 4 feet wide ).....The ONLY drawback, is it weighs 175 lbs, and some folks can't use that in waters where a craft must be carried to the bank to launch. They make a dolly for it, but I trailer mine. The transom is so strong, I can leave the outboard on, even while trailering over rough roads & pot holes. I'm just as tickled with it today, as the day I first received it. They are pricey, but they are worth every dollar, and the hull is incredibly strong. I easily carry 8 baitcaster rod/reel combo's laid completely flat in the extra deep side trays & plenty of room for tackle, cooler, utility box, etc. The electric motors run all day on a single charge with the series 29 deep cycle marine battery. I invented a custom raised casting platform covered with SeaDek. It makes the boat even better in many ways. I feel like I got my bass boat back with the casting deck. But I still love kayaks too. Tight Lines.

If ya wanna see my boat and the custom casting deck I made for it, visit my friend Gerry's channel: "Lunker012" and scroll down his video list & find: "The Twin Troller Gets a Casting Platform". I also sent him several other videos to post on his channel pertaining to the Twin Troller and bass fishing in my area. No actual fishing footage, but I did make videos about the boat, and picture videos about my bass fishing at this time. I need to get a gopro.

    Buy a boat license permit since it has a motor? How much am I looking at total would you say?. I’m work in McDonald’s saving money cause I love fishing especially bass fishing. Can’t wait to save enough to buy this single

    What kind of motor is this ? I don't even see the battery . This is my dream comes true . I hate trailer , top load or paddle due to poor health . With this one I just stick it in my Toyota High Lander and go . Can't wait for the Pelican Power 100 to come out so I can compare and pick the most suitable for me . Thanks for a very informative video .
