Nice ! Workout Aliex. Can't wait to see the next episode 😅. These inflatables are so much versatile than hard kayaks. They are the Swiss army knives of fishing and boating.

You can probably get by with a shorter paddle length using a higher angle stroke which will also improve your tracking. Great video thanks for reviewing.

Will you be reviewing again with their high fishing chair we saw at ICAST? I was wondering if it will be designed to stand on similar to the Kaku chair. At 41" with a cat style hull, it would certainly work. Looking hard at this boat as my next purchase.

Would you recommend this for someone only fishing in freshwater filled with gators. Sadly don’t have enough space for a hard plastic kayak. Nor have a truck to transport one.
@AliexFolgueira4 ай бұрын
This thing has more volume than a normal plastic kayak. A gator bite is between 2,000 to 3,000 psi, meaning it will bite through solid plastics. On a normal kayak, a big gator bite means the kayak sinks. Here? You've got five air chambers, so you are still floating! At least you have a chance.

Hey Aliex! Did you receive the rear mounting plate for the motors with your purchase? I have called a few weeks ago and asked them about it’s availability so I can add it to my 12’ Megalodon 3. They said it’s out of stock and haven’t added it to their website but am still seeing it in your video as well as pictures on their website. Do you know anything about this? Much love bro. Thanks for your time.

Aliex, thank you for another great kayak testing video from Aliex. Always great stuff. So, which inflatable to you like better-the Isle Flywater or the Lite Skiff Air?? And maybe you like each one for different reasons and different conditions. Would love to hear you compare and contrast the two boats. I would also like to see you compare these two boats with iATAK from Wildnerness Systems. I look forward to hearing your comparison. Again, thanks for all you do. Scott

It's funny when I see comments like this. How often do you see a shark biting a kayak? I'm not saying it hasn't happened, but it's extremely rare. You have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than having your kayak bitten by a shark. and if this happen you will be in trouble even on a hard kayak. this inflatables have 5 chambers also if you didn't know ..
