    My friend Brandon and I take out several new watercraft during the day and play around with the new SUPCAT14 racing paddle board. Brandon tried out my Scout 430 inflatable boat with Yamaha 2.5hp outboard , we tried his inflatable board, and of course played with the new SUPCAT 14 race board. This board is not for those who do paddle camping trips due to a lack of deck storage. However, it is phenomenal for day trip paddles long distance. During the day we also tried the Bixpy motor kit on the paddle boards....THEY WERE FAST and we didn't even use 1 bar of battery power....very efficient.

    At 3:32 you seemed to be easily keeping up with the blue boat which had an outboard revving pretty high. That is impressive. That little white motor is super cool though. Awesome video!

      Definitely enjoy the workout. You and Ashley are welcome to launch kayaks from our place and paddle anytime. I got plenty of kayaks and have a nice aluminum kayak launch system that was just put in. Maybe can do boat day too sometime. Pretty cool spot to boat out to called picnic island…has trails through it. Our boat is currently sitting on our neighbors lift, but we will have a new dock and boat lift installed by around February.

    I visit cape coral Florida over a year to visit my mom, this is my dream!! I have been watching your videos non stop! How can I connect with you and learn more about taking a kayaking trip while down there? I'm dying to do this!?

    • @KayakDIY
      @KayakDIY  2 года назад +1

      I own Grab N Go Kayaks. We do rental kayak deliveries to homes. You can contact me when you get down here and I can answer any questions. Maybe can even meet up if timing is right. No guarantees due to me getting busier each year. However, just know I love connecting with my viewers when I can.

    Looks like some nice products. The paddle board seem to track pretty good.

    • @KayakDIY
      @KayakDIY  2 года назад

      The glide on the board is insane.
      It really brings awareness to how lousy the hulls are on fishing kayaks for propulsion efficiency. The scuppers create tons of drag. I prefer a wet self bailing deck designed kayak that is fast and easier to paddle. Skanu holds patent on side scuppers. I just tested this board and realized we have room for significant improvements in fishing kayak hulls.
      I want to collaborate with a kayak manufacturer and build a fishing kayak that is truly a pleasure to paddle. I have so many ideas and designs in my head.

    Wow! That paddleboard is fast!
    I like how it keeps gliding fast even after your friend stopped paddling. How was it paddling with the motor attached? I like the idea of motor for getting me back home if I over do it.

    • @KayakDIY
      @KayakDIY  2 года назад +1

      Barely noticed the drag of motor when paddling. Love this little motor. Use it on kayaks and SUPs. Definitely nice to have when paddling long distances…if wind picks up in wrong direction the motor really helps. Otherwise when standing you act like a sail and the wind can really fight you.

      Thanks. This was an unplanned video. My friend Roy who is a paddlesports dealer just had the board dropped off by him and he didn’t have time to test it due to a vacation so he asked me to. I wasn’t paid. Just wanted to have fun on the water with friends and make a video.

      Love living here. House prices are nuts now, but when we bought our waterfront home it was surprisingly reasonable. We score the home for $250k. Saltwater gulf sailboat access home. We bought 6yrs ago.

    Is that thr original color or did you paint it? Looks like mold to me. 😃 Solid orange will look nice.

    • @KayakDIY
      @KayakDIY  2 года назад

      That is one of their colors. I didn’t paint it. They also have a nuclear green color and blue color as well.

  • @LarryTalbot_1313
    @LarryTalbot_1313 2 года назад +1

    It's hard to believe that it's that fast just paddling it. I like it, but I could do with a different color. That over ripe banana color just doesn't do it for me.

    • @KayakDIY
      @KayakDIY  2 года назад

      Yeah the color I don’t think will be as popular.
      The blue colored ones look pretty awesome.

    ,,electric is the best bet more eco friendly and no noise no oil in the water,,,maby I'll see you guys in the water around sanibel causeway before the toll in the flats,,, maby we can see how a comercial built electric kayak,,or a Bixby powered kayak can compare to my motor designs (basically a shoot out in the flats or deep water) if interested hit me up,,would be nice for Alex f, and zoffinger to show also with their home built setups,,hook something up let's all get together I'm ready,,

      Will check out your stuff and see if I can find time to maybe check it out or meet. I stay pretty busy, but love meeting new people when I can.
