[@grunter1389]

Yeah ... Once had a peddle kayak . But smell of my feet scared the fish. And the birds !

[@thepredatorpodcast]

Very cool.

Thanks mate!

Great review Starlo - any chance you could get your hands on a Titan propel 13.5 and do a review... it would be really good to see the comparison between the two models!

[@StarloGetsReel]

Funny you should mention the Titan, Jason! My wife Jo has one on order and when we get it in a month or two I'll definitely borrow it from her for a comparison!

[@jasonvincent2422]

Sounds great - did she have to order directly from the US or are the aussie distributors on top of the supply chain? Good luck prying her out of the seat when in comes time to do the review!

[@StarloGetsReel]

Aussie distributors have a large order heading into the country. Jo's is one of those. Yes, I'll have to pry her out of it, I reckon! :)

[@jasonvincent2422]

Looking forward to your review (or Jo's).. Would be great to see the yak fully loaded and handling some choppy water... the US reviewers seem to be content floating around flat water.

Starlo do you have any footage on how pedels and prop lowers into the water?

[@StarloGetsReel]

Nathan, have a look at this video of my old Mariner. Shows how the pedal system drops down: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn_SnKWFnNKjgqM

Is this an old model? Native's au website doesn't list this model and it lists you as running a Slayer 12, which looks different from this one

[@StarloGetsReel]

No, it's a brand new model, David. Only hit the country in October/November so not on the Aussie site yet. You'll find it on the US site at: nativewatercraft.com/product/ultimate-fx-propel-13/ My wife Jo runs a Slayer and I ran the Mariner, which is now discontinued.

Starlo Gets Reel Thanks for the info, these are on my shortlist for a kayak purchase soon.

[@StarloGetsReel]

No probs!

[@StarloGetsReel]

No probs!

May I ask you sir, I'm 6'2'' 280lbs how will my frame (fat ass) fit in this kayak?

[@StarloGetsReel]

Well Chris, I'm 6' and 260 pounds, and I fit fine. :) Probably best to see if you can give one a test run.
