Kayak MODIFICATION! Simple Changes, BIG Improvement

[@jonathankohl6264]

Everyone needs a friend like Curtis!! Great video!

[@cleatussfmo7437]

Dont need a friend like curtis when you are like him. Quit paying people to do stuff and pick up some tools....then you can make things happen.

[@deepsouthNZ]

Curtis is great on screen should have his own channel

[@jakelandshark1143]

I used boiler plugs on a large hot water tank.. same thing as here. Great video.

[@jasblick9984]

A flat washer over the bolt head is necessary with rubber plugs. I use them for pressure testing pools. It keeps the bolt head from pulling through the rubber. It also helps with equal compression of the plug. A fender style washer works best.

[@fishingthetriangle9983]

For the non-seat holes, you can do to Walmart and get the foam gold balls, I have a Tamarac 110 and they work great!

[@ianstainer6090]

Curtis needs his own channel

[@mnothem1]

Curt is legit!

[@mmiadragonz]

Dang cleanest install of gear tracks I've seen. Very well done. I wished Curtis lived closer to Miami. I could have him install my gear tracks better than what I did last week. Total noob work. Lol

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

A Diaz watching him helped me learn a lot !!! Takes some know-how, so I’m glad I was able to learn the basics before I drilled into my new yak. Lol I’ve since sold this one and moved on to a pedal drive Native ! Thanks for stopping by man!

[@ritchie4661]

Yeah, are those yak attack mounts, either way those mounts are awesome

[@randomposts6277]

Redskins guy is actually super knowledgeable on technical skills. Bravo.

[@jasblick9984]

A bead of GE 100% pure silicone between accessory rails etc and the kayak will keep the connections watertight

[@CRager-qb7pn]

We definitely need more info on that sweet seat setup!

[@RickSnowman]

note.. walmart sells cheap orange golf balls that are foam and fit in the holes easy

[@timhunt2500]

Great idea! Always use stainless steel nuts,bolts and washers to prevent rust and decay.

[@chrisfalcone5211]

Yall look like a couple of cool dudes🤘 keep on keepin on.

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Chris Falcone thank you Chris !!! ✊🏼

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

HOLE MARKING TIP: Put the tape on the track bottom... Mark the holes on the tape then set the tape on the Yak... Bam! Perfect hole placement. USE STAINLESS STEEL SCREWS FOR EVERYTHING ON YOUR YAK! Q: Did those large screw heads interfere with the track mounts?

[@weriesblack1375]

Wat screws are you using i want to do a few mods and cant access the back inside also does the tracks come with scews or bolts

[@genemckeel1432]

Enjoyed the video. Curtis is great. You guys seem close. How cool.😀👍

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

He’s a saint

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

Bad idea! You're elevating the seat which will make that kayak easier to roll... I learned that the hard way with a much bigger kayak. Cost me over $1000 in lost gear and ruined electronics.

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

phartattack luckily I’m not a fat fuck !

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

@@WaterWarriorFishing fat has nothing to do with it... A small wake will roll you

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

phartattack actually I’ve been using it over a year now and haven’t had an issue ... thanks

[@weriesblack1375]

Also u hate sitting in water i did 1 trip and got a seat it was the choice i could make i barley get wet anymore

[@d0wnbyth3riv3r2]

I have this same kayak and I am highly impressed in the seat setup. How is the comfort?

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

William Penton it’s as good as it’ll get without investing in a whole new seat setup! I’m satisfied

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

William Penton honestly man the comfort is lacking lol but an easy cushion or seat backing upgrade would do the trick. Since Curtis helped me with this I’ve just let it be, as is. Hoping to move on to a pedal drive soon!

[@ShelbyRestorations]

where can i get one of those seats... i want to fix my Sun Dolphin Journey 10 ss unless building a tiny jon boat would be cheaper than fixing my kayak

[@robertgiudice421]

Nice job! I love the homemade well nuts for the seat!

[@kumarnamdar1767]

Very helpful tips guys, thanks

[@ultralightfishingguy]

As a Redskins fan myself, I sympathize. Good vid boys.

[@shljr1963]

UltraLightFishing Guy try being a Lions fan

[@nasserkuzbari2205]

Hope you feel better. Great Video.

[@Julian-cx2ez]

dude you should install a water output somewhere, that holes will eventually let water in.

[@eriksmith2005]

Haven't even watched the video yet but I gave you a 👍 for having a Redskins fan HTTR! from Corpus Christi Texas 🤙

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Erik Smith my man 🙌🏼

[@1mdlmusic]

I have that same kayak. Gonna do some of these mods myself.

[@1Cast1Fish]

Looks like that yak will be a fishing machine soon with all the new mods

[@gmanlipripper]

I just ordered a t track and ram mount rod holder. getting there. be safe

[@ThePatrick42044]

You can also find Scotty on Euro-Trip (movie)... Lol

[@martys356]

Where did you find those rails?

[@westshorefishing]

Where did you buy the seat

[@mattbender6374]

Great video! Curtis rocks! I have the same kayak so this video really helped! Thanks bro!

[@tubhair]

Great tips. I’ll forgive Curtis’s Redskins shirt.

[@Julian-cx2ez]

very nice work congrats!

[@jondebruler]

David great videos. But I do have 1 question are u planning on sale the sun dolphin

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Thanks!! not planning on selling at the moment

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

jondebruler it is now for sale $250 for pickup in MD

[@jasblick9984]

Awesome video on kayak add ons and mods. Thank you

[@paultrimble9390]

Not trying be smartass but does Curtis go kayaking. Cause I’m his size try soup up sun dolphin 10 ss hell im at weight limit with no gear. Lol.

[@retiredoldsarge5938]

Nest time make sure you are using drying silicone and NOT SILICONE LUBRICANT as Lub is not suppose to dry. Red the Complete label to verify what kinf od silicone you are actually using.

[@crumscorner6643]

Redskins fan my self

[@ravensnsooners5634]

Ravens for life.

[@ULTIMATERUBICON]

Did you use marine silicone.

[@epenaloza52]

Why not use divots?!

[@Ant.s12]

I need a friend like him

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Antonio Salazar don’t we all man 😅

[@colejackson2377]

How do you put the bolts on underneath the kayak on the mounts? I have this exact kayak

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Use rubber stops with a thick nut, and bolt on the end to secure the rubber stop in the scupper hole.

[@elmapeters2969]

What are the Scotty rails for?

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

For EVERYTHING. Paddle holder , accessory options are abundant with a Scotty rail or gear rail in general

[@rxonmymind8362]

Not as technical. Got me some 30# 1” Velcro and straps attached to where your rails are. Works. Not as fancy.

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Rxonmymind love hearing alternatives, thanks for stopping by I hope I have your sub! 😊👍🏼

[@huntingicon]

What brand and model kayak is that, brother?

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Tim Wirt 10’2” Future Beach Discovery Angler Kayak (124F)

[@LarpandLeather]

Where can we find those paddle keepers that can go on the track?

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

ThatCubanKid look up “roto grip” that’s the official name for that piece my friend !

[@LarpandLeather]

I don't know what seat is in the video but these work great www.costco.com/Cascade-Mountain-Tech-Stadium-Seat-with-Mesh-Back-2-pack.product.100393190.html

[@dallascowboymafia]

Where did you get the seat?

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Joe Trevino my friend Curtis bought it , I’m not positive but I think it was from academy outdoors online site It’s actually a bleacher seat for football games etc..

[@justindraffen2475]

Use foam golf balls shove them in there. Cheaper

[@Marek.Synowiec.PhotoAdventures]

nice job, but man, you'ra talking to the camera with something wired on your beard...

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Marek Synowiec shit happens 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Cordovasanches]

I Nee tha seat for me kayak

[@bobcary7780]

Check out this link for ideas you might like for your kayak

[@roonydoonyfartsniffer3370]

The silicone was fine,you use silicone in between two spaces in thin applications

[@MrRoark187]

Not true...old silicone will never dry

[@BigCountry12486]

Those holes are there for a reason...smh.

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

trapangler Yes to educate you they are called scupper holes. They allow water in and out.. they can also be modified, plugged, or used however the hell u want ... like as a fitting for a custom seat like this one. This process is called creativity and ingenuity applied to practical objects. In this case, a kayak that we wanted to make more suitable for bass fishing and comfort.. I hope that helps you out trap angler lol

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

I also checked out your channel, you look to be a local hater huh? Damn. That’s too bad

[@WaterWarriorFishing]

Carlos Garza you right Carlota
