RA: Great kayak for the price. Solid and tracks well enough. Prefer it to the Access 9.5 for the extra length and ability to use a proper seat.

J. M. Naquin: Wanted one for a long time. Finally pulled the trigger and purchased it. Had to buy back support but that was perfect too

Meagan ShullMeagan Shull: I love this kayak! It’s been a great summer with this boat. So much room on the boat, I spend the entire day out and I’m always bringing ice chest, beach bag, towels, and my dog. I research a lot of different brands, I’m so pleased with Perception. The thickness is solid and strong. I’m a thin female, and have no issues with handling, loading. I highly recommend this kayak.

JaeJae: The Perception Zip 9.5 is my first kayak. I bought a Perception Rambler 9.5 for my wife last year and by the time I got around to getting one for myself the Rambler 9.5 is no longer available on Amazon(at least from what I can tell). That's OK because I'm guessing the Zip is the same thing basically as the Rambler with just a few differences. It's an entry-level sit on top kayak from a premier manufacturer in the industry. Don't expect a fast, sleek touring kayak with tons of hatches and a comfy(or ANY for that matter) seat, however.

Pros:
Beautiful! I don't know what it is, but Perception makes the best-looking kayaks I've seen. The colors POP and look great whether on your vehicle or in the water. In fact, a child said they looked like 'Popsicles' on my car- I'm taking that as a compliment!
Price/Value. For $350ish you can have a MADE IN USA boat that will get you on the water. Yes...you need a paddle, PFD, and seat(more on that later), but that's not bad!
Stable. This is an excellent boat for beginners! I was on VERY choppy water for only the second time ever(I rented the first time) and never once felt like I would tip over even though other kayakers in...

TechDudeOrlandoTechDudeOrlando: I received my new ZIP kayak from Perception and I’m in love! I can’t imagine there’s a nicer boat for the money. I looked at all the cash and carry stores and I was shocked at the light weight and quality of this kayak for the low price, AND I scheduled the delivery around my schedule to my doorstep!

I’m about 6’3 and weigh 190 lbs yet I feel balanced and agile on this boat. It really feels great. Nice storage areas in the front and back. I can even cruise safely and comfortably with my 6 year old son on board. The incredible value of the ZIP kayak allowed me to get the matching Sea Passage Paddle and probably the most comfortable life-vest I’ve ever worn in the Genesis II PFD/Life Jacket all in my budget. With all the value it made sense to add the Harmony seat back as well because we all deserve some added comfort right?!?! Added a rod holder and I am ready for Spring!

Living in Florida and loving the outdoors this is definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made in a while. Picking up one for the wife soon! THANK YOU PERCEPTION FOR AN AWESOME PRODUCT!
