love the paint job!!! wish my PA come like that!
|
nice, how much for this sweet ride?
|
looks really nice. never seen one of these before
|
Is this a prototype or production model? Did it gain any weight?
|
4.4 is listed as 44 pounds. This model is the F&D with the rec hatch behind, flush mount rod holders and round hatch forward. I weighed this one with the seat on 54#.
Production has just started. I got 2 to fill orders and this one today. 14'6" long 27" wide MSRP on the F&D is $831 |
Now that looks interesting, when do the demo's arrive .

Very nice looking yak. That bow is going to be even more "fun" in a surf luanch than my old Xtreme. Mike

That camo job is so sick! Too bad nobody will see you on the water... Still love it though. Beats the hell out of the desert camo.
|
oh man, that thing looks slick
|
|
Spottie included with every purchase.
|
Looks fun! :luxhello:
|
|
Are these kayaks ready for demo?

you can update the post I am interested thanks |
Id love to take one of these to san o
|
What is the draw for having such a low profile? I can see how it would surf better, and be easier to lug around... but can also see how strength, weight limit, and dryness of ride could be negatively affected.
Is there some other benefit? |
I know this is a very old thread
Im just wondering about this kayak Its got me interested Does anybody out there have any exerience with it Pros and cons Im lookin for something to get me out further Something fast and somewhat stable I know it cant carry alot I dont bring much Or weigh much I know its probably a wet ride Im wondering bout stability mostly Plus its supposed to be a surfing kayak But it looks kinda like a SOT touring yak to me Got my eye on this The tarpon 140 And a few of the X model Malibu kayaks Really liking the weight of this thing though Any opinions and first hand stories are appreciated Thanks guys |
Thresher 140 looks damn good too
|
I have one of these. Got it a couple years back at a Blem sale. I like it in the surf and that is why I mainly got it, to have fun. I am 6'3" 190 lbs and it holds me ok, but I do not use it much for fishing.
|
Do you only surf with it
Or do you take it for long paddles How's the ride And how do I find a blem sale How often do they come around I could always use a discount |
Was mainly for fun in the surf, but do not use it as much. It is set up for fishing, couple hatches and rod holders. I sometimes take it out to the lagoon in Carlsbad. Easy to paddle, can get some speed with it as well. I can definitely go longer distances than my other kayak (Cobra fish n dive).
As far as blem sales, I see you asked in another thread. I think you will get better answers there. |
Yeah i figured I would start a thread and ask everyone
Thanks Eddie |
