I think this boat looks terrific

[@FirstLast-ml7yf]

vinyl hall runner to protect air floor

[@Staronethree]

Wow! Amazing Video!

[@justinsalaskanadventures]

Appreciate the video thanks, debating buying one for a solo moose hunt on the Yukon river in Alaska

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Would recommend the more rugged Wilderness XL versions for hard use.

[@justinsalaskanadventures]

@@outdooroddsandsods thanks for the suggestion I will look them up

[@freshsaltyfries5078]

With the wheels moving it around what’s the weight? Looks awesome

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Manageable for one person for sure.

[@adv4good]

what lake were on Looks like Canada. Beautiful...

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Alberta Canada Thanks for watching!

[@jplee3]

Nice setup! What wheels are you using btw? Are you detaching them completely and storing in the boat while on the water?

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Thanks! They are just generic launching wheels that I flip up once in the water, removing and replacing the pins can be a pain in cold water!

[@stephenhouse6194]

What model of air pump are you using. I own the Saturn SK385XL and I am looking to get another electric pump.

Is the carpet over the inflatable floor? I see this one has the rubber or vinyl over the tube tops. Is that a certain model?

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Yes carpet over the inflatable floor for protection. Mine doesn’t have any extra protection over the top of the tubes, just the flap for the rope to attach to.

[@mortschubert3909]

I am considering a 12' KaBoat. Why did you go for something that big? Do you do long, multi-day trips? Packing a whole lot of gear?

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Depends how many people you plan to travel with, we are a family of 5 with gear. Bear in mind that space between the tubes is much more narrow and shorter than the exterior dimensions.

[@mortschubert3909]

@@outdooroddsandsods, so it does! It is still a very roomy boat; and those huge tubes make it mighty stable and reliable. Enjoy your future adventures!

[@mkoutdoor]

What do you get for top speed?

[@outdooroddsandsods]

Depends on weight, I’ve upgraded to a 15hp outboard and can get on step and reach 20kph with approx. 500lbs on board.

[@slackdaddy1912]

What size mercury?

[@outdooroddsandsods]

8hp
