1st thing I see wrong is the outdated metal woven rudder pull lines. My P.O.S. Bigfish 108 had them and the left side frayed because the metal piece used to hold tension would cause enough pinching to break the fibers. Yes, Feel Free sent me a new set within 2 weeks of emailing them my complaint but I noticed wear on the right side a month after that. Upgrade to heavy-duty braided line. The propeller needs some type of guide to center the props blades while it's in the water so that you can easily pull it up and out of the water to remove debris or out of the way in shallow water. Looks like the pedal drive system is the same as the BigFish. NOISY!! Never buy a kayak until you test drive it!! Lesson learned the hard way
@TheBassquatchHunter3 жыл бұрын
Lot to answer here.. first thing, sorry you had some issue and I am glad they were fixed. Secondly, I have used those same cables for 4 years on every model and never experienced the same issue. Thirdly, there is a device to center the prop to pull it up easily. Fourthly, the pedal drive is the same and is chain driven. Just like any other pedal driven boat with a prop. The noise you hear is not loud by any means and is the same noise a bicycle makes when the chain is spinning a gear. It works perfectly for me on the big fish and seastream. I, as well as thousands of others are happy with the stability, quality, comfort and accessibility of these kayaks. I agree with you that you should demo and test out kayaks first and learn all about them before purchasing or reviewing :) get out and catch some fish!
@TheBassquatchHunter3 жыл бұрын
Also, the device you say it needs to center the prop is the spring loaded button just above the prop. You will hear the prop click and stop when it is pressed down. That is to center the prop vertically so it can be pulled up easily. :)

Well, I appreciate the comment. I’ll help you out a little to save you time doing research. This company made the shadow caster to begin with.

Now it is sold directly from the manufacturer instead and parts are extremely easy and accessible if you contact customer support. :)

@@TheBassquatchHunter Made as in design or Manufactured? I clearly recall in 2016 contacting FeelFree and then getting contact email for a company called Joy Sports which got me nowhere. Certain parts should be available for sale on the site instead of waiting for it to fail to contact customer service? Your rudder cable fix video is an example of it. I would love to buy a spare and keep it on my kayak so if it breaks I can replace it instantly instead of waiting a few weeks to receive one through a warranty. Maybe I’m in the minority that thinks ahead before heading out to the water of fixes I may have to do. Taking care of the customer is how you build a brand and if I had easy access to order parts I may need ahead of time then I would be more then willing to invest in the product.
@TheBassquatchHunter4 жыл бұрын
Michael Rutter I understand. I have owned Feelfree’s since 2016 as well and can tell you that their service is always top notch.. the issue may have been because that kayak back then was not handled directly by the manufacturer but made exclusively for a big box store. I am not sure. But I know that if you contact feelfree and ask about any parts for any of their boats, they are very readily available. Contacting joy sports would not help too much since they are not located in the US. Feelfree/3 waters/seastream HQ USA is based in North Carolina and is known for incredible service. Now, some parts are available online and through dealers for their kayaks but it would be tough to lost everything for sale separately im sure. I contacted customer support for the rudder cables and had them within a week or so. It’s almost always a few days before reviving any part you need through them from my experience and what I hear from The majority online on the owners groups. If you need something, shoot them an email or call and you’ll be all set:) PM me on Facebook if you need any contact info or have any questions:)

There is a drain plug to drain water if anything ever happens. As far as storage goes, there is plenty of options for storage solutions on top of the kayak. Most recreational boats will have more internal storage for the camping/traveling experience and fishing platforms usually have less internal storage since it is not needed in a fishing situation as much.

@TheBassquatchHunter7 ай бұрын
Interesting opinion for sure. I will very strongly say that definitely not every kayak is stable on calm water. A kayak’s stability is not determined by taking on waves in a bay perpendicular to crashing waves. Many large boats have capsized taking waves to a side and that is most absolutely not recommended in any water craft or vessel. Stability can be judged in the ability to take on waves in some ways although the majority of anglers are much more concerned about stability standing, leaning and shifting weight around in a kayak.

Then their opinions can matter more than your own about a future kayak purchase:) lol. I have used the drive for quite awhile and very heavily and never once thought it was noisy or any different than any other drive. The feelfree drove is a bit louder being that it is all aluminum and made for the motor

This kayak is the same body style of field and stream shadow castor
@TheBassquatchHunter3 жыл бұрын
Actually it is not. The company that makes this kayak also made the shadow caster and other models for big box stores. The shadow caster was taken from another platform from the brand. The shadow caster has a different seat, no pedal drive and does not have the open bow or the same hull design as this model. Joy sports owns Feelfree, 3waters and Seastream and they also made many of the kayaks for the big box stores under their own names. :)

Well, sorry it turned you off. I pointed out the things that I noticed about the kayak on my first time using it. I promise that every single piece of content I make is real and the truth about my opinion of a product.
