Are you sure it is 29 inch wide? Perception's site and also the paper work that came with mine all say 32.

TIYX yup..for some reason mine "was" 29".. Thats why I drove back all way to Houston.. ACK did maje it right though after I brought it back. Just one of them " weird" factory mistakes.. From what e-mail said .. But i Would buy that Pescador 100 now that they are all 32" for tge 2018 models. Just got back from fishing right now..off my Pescador Pro 100..Instagram : texascoastwanderer.. Thanks !!

@@leemp337 hey !! I believe in 2017 or 2018.. the Pescador 10.. the Pescador pro is 32”.. my pro is 32” .. 👍.. I don’t claim to be an expert by no means.. lol .. my tracking on the pro is not the greatest.. my pelican icon tracks a bit better actually.. for me at least..

I actually have a chance to buy the 29" version, as I want better performance. Has anyone compared actual measurements btween a 29 and a 32?

Terry Grier hey ! I really like the Pelican..its width is 30.5"..it at times feels a little tipsy on certain weather conditions..I'm not talking harsh weather but on windier than expected. The seat is horrible and 2 to 3 hrs can start getting unbearable.I took the Perception back because warranty paperwork read 29" width. An error on their part. I bought the perception Pescador Pro 10 which the seat is Fantastic !- it is a 10'6" and handles incredible !! My 61 year old wife used it as her 1st kayaking experience and even with her back issues gave her no problems. I plan on buying another Perception but the Red one u just saw and ACK does have the true 32" width 2018 model. But when me by myself..definetly the Perceotion !! Check me out on Instagram also as Texascoastwanderer.hope this helps and I also enjoy my life! Just got back from my 1st whitewater rafting in Tennesse.

Is this the pescador 10 or the pescador 10 pro?
@texascoastwandererkayakfis6726 жыл бұрын
Hey Jaeden ! That red one is the Pescador 10.. The green one I have is the Pescador Pro 10. I am seriously thinking of now buying that "Dragon Red" Pescador 10. Reasons is it has more storage capabilities for overnight kayak camping n fishing which I really want to do. Right now I've been busy working on my business plan for creating my own Fishing Clothing line. I hope in 2 weeks to get it up n going !! U will enjoy either of those 2 kayaks. Stable n not sluggish in the water. Let me know how u do ! Thanks for watching. I am also on IG with same username.

Nice. That was my choice for a sit on top. I just opted for 10 lbs lighter and got the 'Sound' sit in. Those 2 rod holders are ridiculous on all the Perceptions. I'll fit about a 15" extension pvc pipe into them, with the cutout groove for the spinning reels, and they'll sit very secure. By some Krylon spray paint to match the yak, and it will look very professional.

I took it back n bought the Pescador Pro 10. Same rod holders. I decided to use a hole saw n installed regular rid holders.works gr8 ! Have u seen that my vid in that yet ? Thanks for stopping by !! Let me know how ur new one works out !

All websites show width as 32" .. But warranty paperwork attached to yak shows as width at 29".. So I measured and my measurements show 29" .. Hhmm..Might make a call to clear up this confusion.. I did measure at its widest width. If anyone else might have an answer please comment below.Thanks !
