What's the difference between the 2023 vs 2024 model? TIA

Yeah, everyone take this angry guy's advice and stay away from gps motors. I'll appreciate the advantage at the tournaments!

Replacing the springs will calm your anger. Understanding how gps works, having to make constant adjustments, and how we shouldn't use spotlock in the wind, would help 99% of people that have issues with these. Of course you should take your motor off when on the road!!! Seriously?

Dakota lithium is the best 11 yr warranty who else does that

Thanks for sharing Have you had any water get in from anywhere inside the box ??

Who makes your at1 pole mount?

I have 3 kayaks, each has a different purpose. That little kayak is perfect for dragging up and down steep banks and over rocks in shallow rivers to get to places other people can't. My favorite smallmouth river is so shallow I can't use the other 2 kayaks there.

The hand pump is really a non-factor. If you are paying $1400 for a kayak, you shouldn't be cutting corners by not buying a proper electric pump. Why drive yourself into the ground by being cheap at such a critical juncture? Sure, the supplied hand pump is fine...but the air mattress pump is a joke throw in. $100 will net a fine auto shutoff rechargeable/DC pump. Sure, if you are on a tight budget...but this is not a tight budget boat, so...

Just a couple of comments: if you had thigh straps and foot pegs, you and your father would not have been bounced out of the Star Raven. I recognize your maneuvers from paddling a standard decked kayak - leaning back when entering rapids and waves to raise the bow of the kayak through the wave train. You don’t do that with an inflatable because of the bow rocker and the air cells - the kayak is designed to raise high on waves - that is why you both fell out and flipped. Also, leaning left or right into the current flips the inflatable - sitting centered in the kayak with the thigh straps will enable you to cruise the most beautiful lake to maneuvering the most technical class III and IV rapids.

awesome video. straight to the point and no filler. 10/10 i have this kayak but havent used it - its in the mail!

how many miles do you think this could go on a 100ah battery? i have always used a paddle and have gone as far as 2 or 3 miles one way. just want to make sure it would have range so it doesnt die when im 4 miles out?

May I ask, how much do you weigh?

I feel like fishing in an inflatable kayak is like letting ur dog play with a beach ball

I would love to do a review on your product

The big question....16x16 or 13x16 crate for behind the seat of the IATAK?

.....😢

Nice video! Informative. I'm an older guy, new to kayaking and I believe I'll go with this vest as my PFD. You mentioned jumping into the water... Did the Chinook ride up or does it have crotch straps?

1400🫢

I have an I.A.T.A.K. 110 coming in a few days. Looking to get a nice paddle. Buy once, cry once. What length and model would you recommend? Can't wait to get mine, wish there were more videos with these haha. Cheers

Garbage

freshwater fisherman?

Had mine for a week so far. The adhesive that holds on the mounts and the hoops for the front mount are all coming up. Only put it on the water twice so far. I like that it's light, but not worth it at $1400. Unreal. I'll be sticking to my nucanoe and shoalie. I need to see if I can get my money refunded or something since there's a warranty and this is manufacturer issues.

Picked one up and very good so far

I don’t know if they updated it or if it’s because I am a bigger guy but for me the spot lock in standing water with no wind works great very calm movements I have only had it go crazy fast once or twice

I just bought one today I’m excited to get it on the water tomorrow

First question…… WHY???!

Who uses dye for fishing?

I thankfully won this model. And for my needs it's great. Have used it in turbulent water and calm. Handles amazing. I'd suggest using the rear fin at all times. I'd love to see them make a way to make the sides a little square & not as wide. Same with the front. Built in paddle holder could be an option as well as a sterable Rutter. For the proce point on these. Some options should just be a given.

Could you use the 360 seat as a headrest and lay down in the yak?

I tried helping a guy on one of these out while kokanee fishing. His net was way too short. He was trying to land the fish far from his kayak so they wouldn't get snelled double hooks in it. He ended up losing every fish he hooked.

I got 2 packs of the Skooler to use as a rubber jerk bait. I use them most for river smallmouth. I wanted a smaller version of the Super Fluke 5" that had more action than the 4" Fluke. Compared to the 5", it's a bit of a dog. I tried the Rapala Crush bait, but it had only an OK action. I'm interested how these look once fished with a T-rigged EWG hook. Does it compare well with a standard Super Fluke? .

That's a pretty damn good review! Thanks brother! Appreciated. This looks like a winner for creeks and small lakes. I think something that's easy to transport and get in and out of the water makes it more likely you actually go paddling. Don't have to store a trailer... it's makes a lot of sense. Thanks again.

So how do you like the iATAK after a month? I have to admit... I think I'm picking one up for creeks and puttering around to cast small lakes.

I just bought one . I am makeing modifications to it to make it a fishing platform. Seat , hatch etc. I will put it on my channel.

You calibrated it wrong or never calibrated it. Spot- lock is super tight when calibrated correctly.

Just bought this rod today in 6.6 medium heavy casting. Haven’t took it out yet but did cast in the yard for a few minutes seems pretty nice and casts well. I’m a budget fishing guy and for $30 bucks it’s nice. Have it paired with a cheap agility reel I got last week at Wally World. I’m new to bait casters so this is my first setup. Still learning to cast without birdnesting it lol. I’ve got the side cast down fairly well but anything over head is a disaster lol. Specs are really good on the premium version of these rods im6 nice eyelets and good handles. Hard to beat for the money.

I’m interested. I fish sometimes daily. Water is reservoir or backwater creek. My launch points are 30 sec from my compact SUV. It’s a Honda HRV . It’s about 6 feet from hatchback door to back of seats. I wouldn’t store it in bag until season end. I could probably partially deflate it and cram in the back. Water inside won’t be an issue. I’d want a fish finder for sure, a single rod holder. My fishing backpack would fit between my legs. Great review👍🏻

Awesome!

Do you have a rudder on your new canoe? Had similar issues that you mentioned. The rudder made a significant difference in how my xi3 performed on my F12. Plus I steer with the rudder and a foot pedal rarely needing to use the motor to turn.

where did you get the outlets/plugs from?

This is concerning. I really want a Nucanoe Unlimited and add a spot lock trolling motor. Are there any other brands that make a spot lock TM for kayaks?

Hi are trying to inflate but it just isnt. Can you help us figute this out

Ok ok so I was on a lake Saturday and my phone goes into roaming...country ass lake...how would that effect it if at all? Most of these lakes I fish don't have the best service phone wise due to them being away from civilization. And why did you not put it on the back? I have a catch mode 110, I can also stand up in it, it has a plastic bracket back there for a motor as well luckily.

Getting this rod what line pound do you have on it

Cool. So you just put the rods in the rod holders, let out some line, and drive around? And you're using a rattle trap? Seems like a good use of time for when I troll out to my spots.

dude your complaining just to complain when it comes to the noise. all these fools with 80,000 dollar bass boats and 150-200 hp motors and they seem not bother the fish those same 80,000 dollar boats have that same trolling motor or older and dont bother the fish. i think you just suck at fishing and trying to cast some blame on motorguide as to why your 1400$ purchase did help you catch fish cause its loud. all trolling motors are the same when i comes to noise guy touch grass chump

I have 2 xi3 motors and the remotes all break! The trans drives seals leak and the motor corrodes and seizes also taking out the expensive control board. Very poor quality and no help from manufacturer who knows of these defects!

Battery SUP HP pump is the best option

I use a H2O angler I use is mainly for all my Texas rigs cause it’s a medium moderate but feels real light, I can get a great cast, and great twitches and feel everything I feel like , love it lol , hate telling everyone it’s one of my favorites lol, same way with the $60 megacast combo at BPS

great video. thanks for putting this together.
