Feathercraft stopped making folding kayaks in 2016. They do have a limited spare parts shop for boats made after 2000.

Would be nice to see you getting into and out of the kayak...can you push out using the side walls.?
Yes I can/ I weight 160 pounds. I do not know how much weight they can support. I rest my hands on top of the sides of the deck and lift my butt that way. Thank You for watching. Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos

greetings from Portland, OR! I enjoy your videos so much Cosmo, you seriously live the ideal life I imagine for myself when I retire in the future! thanks for sharing your unbiased reviews on the oru kayaks. I have a Haven too but I've never taken it out by myself since it feels too heavy to carry it from car to the dock for one person usually, do you feel you have this trouble as well? I dont find the assembling step by myself too difficult tho, but this kayak is a bit bulky to carry around for one person so I do eventually want to buy a true single seater one.
Its a compromise. You can use a 2 person as a one person. Yes its heavy but its a 2 person kayak! I like it and can carry it. depends on your needs and proprieties Thanks for watching =Cosmo!
This is a great question 👍. Like surfing or swimming in the ocean. I never go alone so to be safe.
Cosmo, have you used the Advanced Elements Airvolution2 or AdvancedFrame Convertible inflatable kayaks? I'm wondering how those compare to the Oru Haven
I have not paddled one. Owners say they are the best. Inflatable. At that price.
I have two of thous! I love it!
Great! Wonderful to be out on the water! Enjoy and Thank You for watching. Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos

What’s the compromise you make when you buy this tandem kayak? i really just want something easy to carry, for family to make quick trips…don’t care about speed and etc…that some pros might care for
I think I outlined that pretty well. You only get a folding kayak when you need a boat you can fold. Sort of like a folding bicycle vs a standard. I think this is one of the better folding designs. =Cosmo
Did you say $2,000.00 for the Haven? I tried ordering from Oru but they don't have one in stock yet,they said september will be the earliest.Thank you, from Southern California here.
Yes it was $2200 last time I looked. Subtract 10% with the discount in the comments. . September is still kayak weather here in New Jersey! Good luck Thank You for watching. Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos

They have a guaranteed refurbished Haven for sale available at 1800 right now
You have the nak to kayak! Great work!
Baw haw haw Thanks for watching =Cosmo
Seems dangerous to me.What happens if it capsizes in the middle of no where ?
Never exceed your capability. Practice self rescue before a problem. Its very easy. I have practiced it many times. I have more of a difficulty with a canoe self rescue. Thanks for watching =Cosmo
No more dangerous than any other boat. Best to have some buoyancy bags though, and to practice recovery from capsize.
@@martin.feuchtwanger I agree I have buoyancy and encourage people to use them and practice safe boating Thanks for watching =Cosmo
@@CosmoWeems leave cellphone in lock secure vehicle. Paying attention to cellphone distracts you from safe paddling
@@stevehansen6792 that's stupid. The Max you can go in a kayak is like 6mph. A cellphone won't cause a kayak crash lol
I’m looking for a boat that has the 500lb weight capacity of the haven, that i can also take on the open ocean.
Should be easy to find. 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕜 𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕨𝕒𝕥𝕔𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘! ✅ Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos

@@CosmoWeems A foldable kayak that’s a mix between the Coast XT and the Haven TT? I’m not seeing any…
You did now specify so I will assume you want a folding boat. Feathercraft (out of business now) made high capacity touring kayaks (skin and frame) that folded. Other than that you will have to do your research. =Cosmo
Canoes have a huge capacity. The average 14′ canoe can hold 700 pounds of passengers and gear.
@@CosmoWeems That’s ashame about feathercraft. If only the coastXT could handle another 100lbs it would be perfect... thanks for your input.
Cosmo, what do you you end up with? I see you tried all models of Oru , which is your go to!?
I have the inlet - very portable. I have a 2 seat Haven and the Coast XT. I love the coast for the type of stuff I like do do like kayak camping. But the inlet is so small I can take it anywhere. A man with one watch always knows what time it is. A man with 2 is never sure. Ha ha ha 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕜 𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕨𝕒𝕥𝕔𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘! ✅ Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos

Wide and stable enough to stand and fish ?

Would you use an Oro on the Bowrun circuit?

With gear ....the tandem model .
2 pddlers 2 sets of gear. Maybe. 1 paddler and gear - I would choose the Coast. 1 paddler and a large dog - the paddler will be working hard. I have only toured with the Coast. The boat can probably do it. Its not a responsive boat. Its wide meaning you will have to work hard. Its hard for me to say since I have not done it. Maybe contact Oru. =Cosmo
Since it is open cabin, no drain valve and you basically sit on the floor, do you get a lot of water inside and get a 'wet butt'?
Yes. On the positive side you can fold it up and put it in your car trunk. Life is a compromise! 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕜 𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕨𝕒𝕥𝕔𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘! ✅ Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos
