  • There are expensive ways to put a soft deck on a boat or kayak. Then there's my way.

    I didnt know it but, I've missed this activity and your creativity. This is already my favorite production from you in a long time. It is also in major part your interaction with the build and process. Thanks again for another great idea. ( Dog fur carpet might get fleas. Also, the potential smell ) 🤢🤣

  • @averageeverydayfishermansh4501

    Love it. I am with you that I don't think some noise will hurt the fishing but I do think it will make them more aware of you being there and on edge. But just being quiet and more a part of nature is why I love kayak fishing. I am digging seeing you have the time to let your creative juices flow again. LOL!

    It’s been awhile since I met you in Morehead City last summer. Forgive me for not being up on your adventures. So have you decided to abandon the great loop? Did u sell your boat ? Are you back in Florida for good? If so I don’t blame you a bit. It was great meeting you that day. The way you designed the controls for the dual set up was awesome. I am preparing to sell everything here and move back to Florida it’s been since 2010 since I last lived there I miss the warm weather and the fishing. Gene

    I used a yoga mat from Walmart that held up for over a year till I hit it with a presure washer when it got really dirty but I used 3m spray glue to stick it down I used a blow dryer to heat up the kayak a little before sticking it down then put weights on it to help stick it looked and worked awesome

    Hey Marty, I’ve been a follower a very long time now probably since my first episode of watching you and Mike hit “rock-bottom” on the tour you guys did, anyway love the videos, keep it up, just a quick question, “aren’t you worried about mildew or any type of salt or fish guts etc. etc. laying in the mats?”

    • @BeetleBuns
      @BeetleBuns Před 2 lety +1

      that's the same type of carpet people use on regular fishing boats all the time, never had it be a problem. Obviously you've got to clean any real messes you make, but that carpet is tough stuff!

  • @earnestmatlock9694
    @earnestmatlock9694 Před 2 lety +3

    Thanks Marty, another great video. Looks like a very worthwhile improvement to an already great kayak. Maybe these improvements your doing could be added to pelican's lineup of kayaks, as a custom shop line option. There could be a market for that. Expanding ones market share, would mean possible sales volume increase (money). It could over time improve Pelican market share over other kayak builders.
    Have a great day and 73 Earnest K5EWM.
