Pelican Sit-On-Top Fishing Kayak - 10ft Lightweight Single-Person Kayak

G. Simms: I'm pretty new to kayaks, and t 6'1" 180 lbs the previous 6 foot sit-on-top left me less than enthusiastic. When I mentioned this to my son (who is 6'5" and 220) he recommended I move up to tis 8 footer. Not only is it more stable, it's easier to propel. Very well made. I know some reviews were critical of its condition upon receipt, but we got this in 2 days in a rural lake community in perfect condition, and at it's price it's a bargain.

Wilson: This kayak is so much fun. My 9 year old son purchased it instead of buying one of those smaller 6' kayaks that he would have outgrown next year and he absolutely loves it. His ONLY complaint about it is because it is so wide he bumps the paddle off the sides sometimes but I explained to him that it is wide so that it is more stable and he's perfectly fine with it.
I do wish that there was some sort of net or something in the front cargo hatch as it can be easy to lose stuff inside but I'm sure I can rig something up for him.

Dale ChambersDale Chambers: Pelican has promised on multiple occasions to send replacement parts. I never hear back. There is also a small hole on top and they were going to send filler. There was no indication on the packaging that there would be damage. This was done prior to shipping before wrapping. This is a very bad way to run a business. All I ask is that you do what you say you will do. I’d like to be able to use the kayak so I can write a different review.

Harold: Très bon kayak de pêche et Chasse au canards. Léger et très bon matériel, mérite d'être manipuler soigneusement pour faire durée le plaisir.🤗 Pas facile installer un moteur électrique sur ce modèle 🦉🔮🏴‍☠️

Lance: It is a very sturdy and comfortable kayak. I have had plenty of room for my tackle and rods. I just use a fish stringer and clip on the side of kayak to keep what I’ve caught. Very lightweight and easy to carry to get to water.

Godzilla475: I received this kayak as a gift from my wife and kids. Overall, I really like the kayak. Handles well. Pretty stable, although I have been in more stable kayaks. Easy to fish out of. My only complaints ares that the rod holder that comes with the kayak is basically useless and there are no T-slots. The rod holder mount is too far forward for easy access and sits much too low to allow any fishing pole without an extremely short handle to be used (none of my poles would work). This would be OK if Pelican sold fishing rod holder extensions, but I searched aggressively and could not find any. I added a Yakattack T-slot to both sides of the kayak (would be nice if the kayak came with them) and added two Yakattack fishing rod holders (these are absolutely GREAT and highly recommended). The slots also allow for other attachments - tie down rings, fish-finder mount, transducer mount, camera/Go-Pro mount, etc. I'll never get another kayak without them. The additions cost me ~$100.
Again, overall I really like the kayak, it is just missing some things that would make it awesome.
