      Oh, it can definitely be deceiving at times! What you need to look for is the tail fin. If it is ululating up and down, that is a dolphin or a whale. If it is ululating side-to-side, that is a shark, which undulates its tail side to side like any other fish, which is what a shark is. A dolphin is a mammal, and it's tail fin always undulates up and down.

    Your rationale was my thoughts too. I was going to do the same thing with my small motor because you can transport it in the back of a boat in the angled stowed position so why not transport it the same way when off a boat. I too once laid my mercury on the side and not only did it leak oil it leaked gas. Great video.

      @bgaviator it's worth a try, I have never used one myself. It does have a drop stitch floor according to their website, which will give it a good amount of stiffness. Won't be totally like the higher end Sea Eagles, but it will get you out on the water cheaply, and it will give you an opportunity to figure out if investing more in paddling is something that you want to do.

    Another question for you if I may? We’ve joined a local paddling club and since we have a smallish dog we want to take along, a canoe or tandem kayak is the only solution where we can all be together. At the moment we are preferring the canoe 🛶 paddling style where we are seated higher and paddle with a single oar. We cannot carry a rigid canoe or kayak so we are looking at inflatables. Since we have an older low pressure inflatable kayak, we tried this but I found it quite unbearable how little progress is made per stroke compared to the rigid boats. The current inflatable goes to 1.5 psi on floor and pontoons. I know this boat goes to 3.2 on the sides and 10 on the floor so my question is just how does this feel compared to a rigid? W know it’s subjective but any guidance would be so helpful. Don’t feel I can commit to spending on one of these if it’s going to feel like a sad second place to a rigid. I do appreciate it’s going to be harder to paddle than a rigid but the videos I’ve seen so far haven’t touched on a comparison between something like this or the Fastrack versus maybe a sit on top rigid or a canoe.

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 9 днів тому

      You might want to consider the Sea Eagle travel canoe as well. I have a review on that boat coming out very shortly. Bottom line, it's a very nice paddling canoe that will certainly enable kneeling while paddling, or even standing. It's all drop stitch performance is truly like a rigid canoe!

      @@KayakCliff Thank you, I will certainly be watching that one when you release it. I would be very interested to know how you feel about the packing up and folding of the travel canoe as some reviewers on the Sea Eagle website say it is quite difficult. Addressing points raised by reviewers (especially the less positive ones) would help those of us contemplating what to get as you obviously point out pros and cons, so we can trust you.

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 3 дні тому

      It is very large and a bit more difficult to fold up than the Explorer kayak, which you simply roll up like a burrito. That is my favorite. The travel canoe you more or less have to fold, and if you are trying to get it back in the original bag, it will take some effort. If all you need to do is fold it three ways and put it in the back of your pick up, that's not too bad at all.

    I would be interested to know how to paddle kneeling. Small problem is I can’t kneel for long so I need to create a good kneeling support so I don’t have extreme knee flexion and my knees are very gently supported. Figuring this out as a beginner is proving to be a challenge. It would be great if I could easily swap between sitting with my back comfortably supported and kneeling comfortably. Ideas and suggestions would be very welcome. I was wondering whether those inflatable seats could come in useful for this but I haven’t bought a boat yet and won’t until I can figure it out.

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 9 днів тому

      Hi 👋 there! Some great questions! Thanks for watching and commenting. Let me first say that I paddled for years in one-piece hard shell kayaks and loved them. The thing I didn't love was storing them, transporting them & securing them when I traveled so they didn't get stolen. When I switched to Sea Eagle inflatables, I got rid of ALL the one-piece hard shell kayaks! With the 10psi floors on the Explorer, FastTrack & PaddleSki or the all 10psi hulls on the RazorLite, EZLite10 or the FastCat12 - I did not feel that I was sacrificing any performance. Definitely not squishy when paddling, they paddle very rigidly and with speeds similar to hard shell kayaks. That 10 psi drop stitch floor is crucial to the hulls performance. Now, for the kneeling question. Will you be doing this solo? Or, will you be paddling tandem and expecting to kneel? If solo - The 380X will give you enough room to just shift from the rigid high back black seat into the knee paddling position. You can even stand in the 380X for maximum position options. I much prefer the high back seats to the inflatable seats. If you plan to paddle tandem and want to kneel, I would go with the largest Explorer - 420X. I have never made kneeling and paddling a practice, but I'm sure it won't be a problem. Bottom line - the 10 psi floors and the full 10psi hulls on the RazorLite & EZLite10 don't even REMOTELY perform like the 1.5 psi boats that you have been using. No comparison at all, that is why high end Sea Eagle inflatables are so popular. Let me know if you have any other questions - I put some helpful links below.

      @@KayakCliff Thanks so much for your comprehensive reply. I would be paddling with hubby and our smallish dog, so I think looking at boat sizes the larger version sounds like the best idea. The information on the paddling experience is super helpful, thank you!! The reason I want to know about kneeling is really just to be able to change position as I have so far not found I am truly comfortable either on a canoe bench or in a kayak seat. Part of this is obviously not being used to it, but I also have a knee injury that limits what I can do and for how long. Falling in love with paddle sports has brought some complications to my life 😂😂😂. I do so love my paddle board for this very reason but the rivers are just not deep enough to be safe unless you kneel. Now here is a question I hadn't thought of. My paddle board came with a kayak seat. How would that fare going down a river? I have not tried the seat at all yet. I have been binge watching your channel as you give such good insights and comments. Keep up the great work and thanks so much for such a prompt and detailed response. You should be an official dealer!

      @DaleswayPrintTech I do see some people using kayak seats that are designed for their paddle boards. I have tried it myself, but found it to be a little awkward. Give it a try, you might like it. It would certainly facilitate shifting from sitting to kneeling relatively easily. My favorite thing to do on a paddleboard for a seat is to have a square hardside cooler that you can sit on at an elevated position, then stand up easily. A lot of people do this as well, as long as it is a stable paddle board.

I'm told with the lithium battery, it is much better and much stronger, the last one was awesome, so I am excited to try it out. Same price as the one that I used in the video, just much more improved. I highly recommend battery pumps, but they make the experience so much better! Air Inflation Pumps: alnk.to/9btN2h3

    Cliff, finally got mine. Are you just supposed to force the locking end of the foot brace bars down into the clip.?? I'm afraid to push it too hard in fear of breaking that clip. The receiving end there doesn't seem to have too much give. Help ?? Suggests ??

    • @KayakCliff

      Hi Bob, Yes, you slide the foot brace rods through both holes on the black receiver mounted to the boat hull. Then take the end of the rod with the black 90 degree plastic finger, then rotate it downwards to lock it into place in the receiver. Should rotate down pretty easily if you have the rod fully inserted. Let me know if you figured it out!

    Hello! Love your channel! Just came across it a few days ago and have watched quite a few of your videos. Subscribed as well. I do have a question, unrelated to this video, but maybe you can help? How "tippable" is the RazorLite kayak really? Everyone mentions how tippy it is, but then others mention is really not that bad, but I've never seen a video showing what it would actually take to tip it... video suggestion I guess, but I'm wanting to order it TODAY so a quick answer would be absolutely amazing if you could help :)

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 13 днів тому

      Hi there, Eric - thank you for watching, subscribing and commenting! Great question! The razor light is no more tippy than any other 28 inch wide touring style kayak. People that comment negatively, have likely never been in that style of boat before. I have been paddling it for, three years now and have never tipped over even going through heavy class one Rapids loaded down with 70 pounds of camping gear. The razor light is my favorite kayak by far 6 foot, 190 pounds. I think if you're 250 pounds, it's a different story though. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions! By the way, I'm attaching my affiliate link below, if you click on this web link to order, it does not cost you a penny more, it just gets a little bit back to support the videos that I produce. I like your video idea, I will try to put something together that illustrates tipiness! Thanks, and God bless!

Need it for the family so a single seater won't work. I was also looking at the Aquaglide Chelan 155. I like it alot but people seem to lean more towards the Sea Eagle. I guess they are that much better? Hard decision made harder due to price! Can't just buy and hope to like it.

They also come with a three-year warranty and a generous return period, as long as the product is still sellable. Their customer service is top-notch too! The RazorLite is very stable in my opinion. Been paddling it for 3 years now and never a tip over, that’s even with 70 lbs. of camping gear in it over strong Class 1 rapids.

    When comparing the two boats, is there any difference in leg room between them? I tried sitting in the Pakayak and after about 15-20 mins I was losing circulation in my feet due to having the squeeze up to fit inside the cock pit. Is there any more space in the Sea Eagle from setback to furthest peg setting than there is in the Pakayak seatback to forward bulkhead?

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 12 днів тому

      Hi there Spidey! There is tons of room in the RazorLite and more room to fully extend your legs in the foot pegs if you are especially tall. You can adjust the seat rear wards by loosening the straps to even give you a little more room. Easier to get in and out of the RazorLite, plus you can swing your legs over the side and sit “side saddle” if you want to get something that is stored behind you. The Pakayak is a great boat if you want a true sit inside touring kayak. You can get more comfort in the RazorLite without sacrificing cut speed.

I also just don't trust it to not fail at some point as I see small cracks at fold points, and have to worry about running into things. I'd love a modular but the cost of a pakayak.. ouch..

      Hi there, that trip down class 1 rapids did not pan out, but with the many times I have had the boat out in varying conditions over the first month of use, I think it will do fine down Class 1 rapids. I would make sure you are not over loaded and that your weight is not bow heavy, position yourself as far back towards the stern as the seat straps will all, while still being able to touch the foot pegs. Without drain plugs, if a little too much water comes over the bow, no problem, just pull ashore and flip and drain. Even if you swamp the EZLite, it will still be paddleable. I have had the RazorLite over Class 1 rapids many times and it does awesome.

    Hey Cliff 2 questions please: Can you advise how stable the ELite vs the 393rl? I do rivers, streams and creeks that have large boulders in it. When the 393rl goes over and makes contact with a rock it turns into a teeter totter and is very susceptible to flipping because of the ridged floor. Wondering with the "V" hull on the EZLite if this would be better or worse? I see there are no drain holes? Does the water get trapped in the folds when you flip it drain and you have to sop it up with towel? Thank you.

      Hi 👋 there! The EZLite is much more stable than the RazorLite. With the V floor, if you get high center on a boulder I would imagine your stability will be greater than when you do that on the RazorLite, especially if you can position that boulder on the flat side of the V. The nice thing about the RazorLite is you can paddle extremely effectively with no skeg, that is my favorite way to paddle the RazorLite, which makes it an awesome boat for shallow rivers. If you are in the EZLite, I highly recommend purchasing the small skeg that Sea Eagle offers, that is the only skeg I use on the EZLite10 and it works very well!

    Which battery pump are you using?

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff 28 днів тому

      Hi 👋 there, the pump that I'm using in the video has been discontinued and they just replaced it with this pump. I'm actually getting one of these soon. This one actually has more battery power and pumps it up even faster, with the ability to pump up bigger boats or multiple kayaks. Air Inflation Pumps: alnk.to/9btN2h3

    You went a good time of the year. During “tourist time” I t’s sketchy riding up with all the shuttled riders coming down. We usually go in September on a weekday It’s a good ride!

    Have you had the pleasure of taking a boat like this in the sea? Wondering how it would fare with a bit of swell. I dont plan on taking it out in rough wether, but torn between the speed of this design and the slower tube on the side design.

      Hi there, I think it would do well out in the open sea, with rolling swells. You would not want to be out there where waves are breaking though. I have had it out in very rough water on lakes, but never in the open sea. It has always surprised me and done very well!

    Cool trip. I live in Clearwater so I was mostly able to recognize where you were in each clip. I’ve never been to John’s pass , though. It looks cool.

    No foot pegs in any of them?

    • @KayakCliff
      @KayakCliff Місяць тому

      The two kayaks that have foot pegs are listed in the below links. They are more of your performance type paddling boats. They're not really necessary in the fast track or the explorer line, but you can install those if you wish.

    Ohhhhh thank you. It is so nice to watch a great reviewer for a change. I have watched a ton of videos on inflatable boats lately. Well done sir. Lots of reviews come off flat or stiff. Very nice to watch this one. I think you’ve sold me on this boat! 😊
