    Nice video man! It's not so bad of a boat. I have a seam torn on the back part of my section 1, and a leak somewhere in the floor, but it still keeps my butt dry for at least an hour or two for some fishing. You have a wonderful family, and it was fun to watch the video

    • @hitchedandhaulin2031
      @hitchedandhaulin2031  Před 7 lety +4

      @Wheelchair-bear Před 5 lety

      Can you maneuver it very well with just one person in the boat? And how much adjustment is there for the back seat to come ahead if one person wants to be a little bit more centered?

    My kayak finally arrived today.. before I purchased this, I watch slot of reviews.. but I’m SO glad I came across yours tonight.. when blowing it up.. I saw things in your video that were never brought up in other reviews.. like when you closed the value right before putting the seats in.. and I didn’t know the seats were Velcro.. you had a great review.. I had to stop it to write this review.. lol., going to finish watching it now.. but thank you for a thorough review on setting it up!! We’re hoping to take our kayak out on Sunday!!

      I also didn't know about the drain opening and plug. I wish they didn't make it clear because we started out on the lake and didn't know about it and started letting water in. I learned from your video where the plug was. Thanks so much for a detailed video.

    Came across your video while researching this kayak - thanks for taking the time to pull it together. Would you mind sharing how yours are holding up as well as providing info regarding the comfort of the seats? Concerned about whether or not the inflatable back actually provides good enough support for an extended trip. Thanks again & in advance!

  • @vanthadoun1
    @vanthadoun1 Před 5 lety +1

    I bought the K2 Intex explorer also, I found it to be easy to fill up and maneuver but the one thing we had a problem with was the location we chose to kayak at. It was surrounded by lots of pine trees on a hot summer day. so we (my wife and I) were constantly being bitten by mosquitoes. Next time we will wear some bug repellent to prepare ourselves.

    • @hitchedandhaulin2031
      @hitchedandhaulin2031  Před 6 lety +1

      Tom Beck Hi Tom! Yes you can use this kayak with just one adult. My husband and I have done that a couple of times. We just install the back seat only, but Velcro it slightly more forward than we do when our kids are with us. However, Intex also has an inflatable one-person kayak that is not as long. It’s the Intex Challenger K1 that you might look into. ~ Ginni

    • @hitchedandhaulin2031
      @hitchedandhaulin2031  Před 6 lety +2

      THEGREATBAMBINO SULTANOFSWAT This kayak has a weight capacity of 400 lbs. So as long as you and your gear combined do not exceed that you should be fine. 😊

      They're rated for 400 pounds.
      In my experience with kayaks, unless the water is extemely calm and flat, you'd want to stay under 360 pounds.

    • @hitchedandhaulin2031
      @hitchedandhaulin2031  Před 7 lety +4

      Oh, it's really easy to deflate. They have a bigger valve below where you air it up to deflate it that releases the air quickly. I'd say the hardest part is making sure the water/sand are out before you fold it all back up. Overall great kayak. We've had a blast on it. ~ John
