On Water Review Now Posted: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4Sunn6qjc2rn6M

[@robbogin482]

Great quick walk through Dan, glad you had a great vacation!! Can’t wait for the on the water review!!

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Needed a break. It's been a record setting season for us, but at the expense of my sanity! haha Looking forward to the off season to make videos and get setup for next season in the new shop.

[@tassosmanolas5344]

Tassos Manolas from Greece.What a beautiful piece of fine art you make.A feast for my eyes

[@morrobayfishing5515]

Yes... Going to have to get a kayak. I get sea sick around diesel smell. But sometimes you can't fish from shore.

[@jerry-381]

Love the new seat! I may have bought a Lure 13.5 but couldn't get past the old seat with the low back. Really like the open deck. Don't care for the lights and battery box. The navigation lights aren't legal in Texas as well as other states. The new steering lever looks like it could get in the way or broken pretty easy. Bet it's a good seller.

[@lunchbox7573]

Great video, just have one question. Would you recommend this kayak for ocean fishing?

[@alwayz_be_cullin]

I was sold on coming in this weekend and picking out my Titan 10.5... until just now. This setup looks dope, and would save me time/hassle from doing all the add ons at al later time. I need to get in the shop and figure this out with a demo at the lake with you guys. I hope to be in there Saturday October 27th. Great vids and thank you for all the reviews you guys do. You really make getting educated on these yaks easier to nail down just what to expect and what’s going to be a better fit prior to even getting into the shop. Be well and hope to see you guys Saturday. -Tony

[@JPhan85]

Is the kayak 125lbs with the pedal drive and chair on? I want to top this kayak on top of my 2015 chrysler Sedan. Is it possible?

[@TheTrophyChannel]

Can you tell me what non-pedal drive kayak has the most stability that you have encountered?

[@cmgoulart]

that rig seems to be priced right, neat features and Dan I LOVE that transducer plate and scupper drain. cant wait for the on the water video. They have raised the BAR for sure.

[@SomeStrangemysterious]

Sweet looking boat. The color I’m not thrilled about. Looks like they used all their leftover cans of color and just mixed them in and this is what popped out.

[@dmarksvr]

Any chance you could get your hands on Riot Mako 10 with the impulse drive???... It will fit inside my SUV and has peddle drive for under 1000, so I'd like to know if it's crap or not. If it's as good as my tamarack angler but with peddles that'd be good enough for me .

[@jerrybuonfiglio419]

, I

[@HeadwatersKayak]

It's a cheap kayak with a plastic drive that looks like it would break the first trip out. With that said I did reach out to them about reviewing it, and I'm waiting on a response. If it survived a hard review without breaking I may consider recommending it, because it is cheap. However I firmly believe you get what you pay for, and most of the Chinese pedal drives I've seen or worked on have been total garbage.

[@dmarksvr]

Thanks for the reply, and I hope they work with you to get one out for a review!!! ...Ya the drive is my big concern. In the comments on vids about it people are saying that plastic gears can be good if they chose the right materials and stuff. Composites have come a long way.. but still. Also it seems they may have an option to upgrade the hull to a thermoform ABS model, but that would be out of my price range. I'm loving my Tamarack angler, and If I could just get something as good as it with a reliable peddle drive and weight under 70lbs for under $1000, I'd be very satisfied. But other then this Riot I haven't seen anything like that, at least not that I could afford anytime soon... hopefully they cracked it, because I think a lot of people are looking for something to fill the same niche I am.

[@SanJoseBassDude]

I'm curious about the turning radius, it looks awesome. 8ball rudder control is slick

[@C.Adams82]

Could you wire up the battery box behind the seat to run to the depth finder thru the hull or without the wire being in the way?

[@retnav92]

As a Lure 11.5 owner, I'm looking fwd to the upcoming Dorado video. I've no need personally for a heavy peddle rig in the skinny water I fish, but do think the Dorado is a heck of a rig for those that will get full use of the features. 😎

[@robertstevens7651]

What kind of fish finder would you recommend for this kayak?

[@youdontneedtoknow2685]

What material is this kayak made of? The thin garbage pelican plastic or the heavier duty perception type material?

[@HeadwatersKayak]

John Koeper high density Rotomolded poly. Yes you could say same as Perception.

[@debraburns7712]

In your opinion of both the dorado kayaks and the titan 10.5 with the boonedox landing gear witch would be better or easy to move around for a women ? I love them both .

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Debra Burns the titan with landing gear is far easier.

[@debraburns7712]

@@HeadwatersKayak thank you.

[@jeffsabo4905]

What kind of peddle drive does this boat have? Propeller?

[@tailslapexplore6887]

can't w8 for the next episode mate.

[@markmassa3359]

I’ve been waiting a while for this review. Is that a standard color? As I have not seen that color offered anywhere

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Mark Massa this and the Ocean are brand new colors. They look incredible. I’ll have my on water review up shortly.

[@pandapuddin5837]

Noticed the broad face of the kayak. Would this be good in ocean swells?

[@roncasanova709]

Great walk through! I recently purchased the Dakota Lithium pack you showed in the video. Can you tell me how you hooked it up?

[@monti409]

I see it hold's a deep cycle battery behind the chair, and a lypo up front, then i take it the powered motor can run on ether battery right?

[@tamirule4216]

Great walkthrough

[@killerxela]

what makes this better than the old town topwater pdl? $1000 less for old town and dont see the difference, old town seems more functional and simple.

[@C.Adams82]

Love your channel. It's my go to channel for kayaks. A kayak that has caught my attention is the Native Slayer XC. Would like to see a video on it

[@Outwestwithchris1]

Pretty interested in your on the water experience. I'll probably add to my fleet by finally getting a Pedal kayak sometime in the next few months and have been waiting on this one to do so...

[@jasonjackson1848]

Any chance you would be able to do a comparison with the old town top water 120 pdl???

[@davidrogers220]

What’s the price on this yak Stan? with what’s there not the paddle just the yak

[@ajw007white4]

Great video man it's a nice-looking kayak

[@deathbyhook]

Can you do a video on accessories for this boat?

[@johnstrand2247]

Great review. Like those lights and rudder! Don't suppose you would consider a trade in of a Native Titan, would you?

[@fishnmusicn]

Looks like a tank. Fishing kayaks have gone away from sleek and have gotten shorter and more boat like. Seems like a trend - not a fan here but to each his own.Will be interesting to see how it would paddle - what does it weigh, 100 lbs?

[@fishingva9946]

I like to call them bath tubs haha. But it really is nice to have all that space

[@allwrightadventures6675]

That is such a nice kayak that would be great for shark fishing.

[@cuttingedj2011]

Man, I own a 2016 PA14 and this is impressive. I will seek to test one out and may purchase.

[@WileyCoyote]

i think you should demo it with the Titan,Hobie Pro 12 and the Predator MK.

[@ethanchmielewskifishing]

Great video. Soooo informational

[@yakinthede]

Time to upgrade! Are those rod leashes on the flush mount rod holders?

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Yes

[@erickelley1570]

What ever happened to you doing a diy video for outfitting that lifetime tamarack angler 120?

[@otroflores91]

With a name like dorado I expected this to be more of a ocean kayak. Don't know how I would feel about punching thru waves with it. Looks nice for inside the bay tho. Also I thought navagation lights had to be different colors to tell the bow apart from the stern and the right/left side.

[@HeadwatersKayak]

They are. Red on left green on right. You only need Nav lights if your under motor power.

[@paulsammut6176]

Dorado is also a fresh water predatory fish from the Amazon...

[@CowboyPescador]

Muito Show o caiaque , pena que no brasil não tenha coisas assim top de linha com preço justo !

[@douggrissom3065]

I would like to see a comparison with the Jackson Coosa fd

[@jamesdeweese5113]

How much?

[@brucestarr4438]

Gonna have to get CF numbers and registration from DMV. Even pedal boats are a gray area. The exception is for Paddle or Oar Powered. You may get away with not registering for a while, but it's coming. California wants your Money.

[@Bobshouse]

hand crank?

[@yakfishnchill5742]

Will that seat fit in a Lure? And can you buy the high back separate to swap if not?

[@retnav92]

Making the higher seat back as a retro refit accessory would be a good move on Feelfree's part. 👍

[@HeadwatersKayak]

I'm sure it will be available as an upgrade. At this point 100% of the seats are going to Dorados, because the demand is so huge, but I'm sure once they get caught up they will be selling them seperate.

[@retnav92]

@@HeadwatersKayak: Hopefully, they've kept the mounting point at the hinged/folding point the same size in order to fit the lower part of the seats.

[@Tohoku09]

that red/fire whatever is sweet

[@HeadwatersKayak]

I agree the new colors are sweet!

[@Tohoku09]

Does this come "out the box" with a paddle?

[@christopherpeek2647]

It's perfect for this time of year

[@SlimeDonkeyTV]

Sweet man! Great video! What about a spot for a micro pole? That yak is sweet!

[@queenjane7054]

WTH. Is the price ??

[@phillipjacobson4498]

Nice ! Just subscribed because I want to see that moter work. And get your feedback on it. I think you should do a review on the fissot on a wind chop lake and with sky boat wakes please. Also have interest in riot mako 10

[@chuckybarto7211]

Does it come in any other colors?

[@brucestarr4438]

IIRC there are 4 different camouflage colors.

Dorado vs Big Fish 120...

[@smgramlick]

Kevin Black I’ve got a big fish and love it, but this has so many more features than the big fish. No pedal option, nothing prewired, less rod holders, no lights. I’m not down playing the big fish, I love it, but it is what it is.

[@pancingminiawas5454]

Kayak😊✌👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍🛶

[@sirAlhafiidz]

Hello my friend..my birthday on March 28.. can you give me this kayak for gift? I love this kayak.. i'm ok with demo unit... i'm from Malaysia..🙏 please..

[@tomasmartinez9072]

queria verte pedalear, se ven muy altos los pedales..

[@jhoth405]

That is a bad kayak

[@williammcintyre1396]

That's not a fishing yak, it's a pleasure craft. Nothing but a show piece. Not impressed.

[@brucestarr4438]

By your logic, a Bass Boat isn't a real fishing boat.

[@williammcintyre1396]

I'M A MINIMALIST, JUST DON'T SEE THE NEED FOR ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES.

[@brucestarr4438]

No need to Shout about it. It's not for you, but it will be a big competitor in it's market, along with the Titan and Pro Angler.

[@williammcintyre1396]

Didn't notice I was on cap lock, didn't intend to shout.

[@brucestarr4438]

No problem. I agree yaks like this are a niche market. They are designed for a specific customer. It's the Yak worlds version of a Bass Boat. Just like Jackson's Kayaks Kraken, is designed for a certain market.

[@marinegrunt7461]

How much?
