I wouldn't feel confident saying any kayak is "safe" per say. I would say yes, but grabbing the stabilizers in an ocean condition where width doesn't really matter, seems like the best combination. It is only 9.5', but Reel Yaks has tons of models that could be more specific for this exact scenario.

220 lbs 5 foot 11 id go a lil bigger if u want to fish it's great to get around but I'd like more room for fishing lil wider

I am actually planning on making a video about this, this weekend when I pack up for a full day float down a river for Father's Day! So it should be up within the next week or so!

I am not sure what you mean by high position? As far as I can tell my only adjustments on the seat is forward or backwards a couple inches depending on your height. I have my seat in the further back position and do not have any problems. As far as raising the seat goes, I have not looked into that.

I have had no issues with the clips at all. They seem pretty heavy duty to me, and I honestly do not see them failing, especially from normal use. I do not see the part listed on the website, which to me seems like people don't need to replace them often if ever. The company has fantastic support and I'm sure if they did fail it would be covered under warranty, or if out of warranty I'm sure they could get you the parts needed to repair.

So, to use the complete motion of the pedals, I'd guess somewhere in the 12-18 inches of water range depending on weight. Since it is the fin drive, the pedals are a "back and forth" motion, instead of a circle like on a bike. So, say you are in about 8-10 inches of water, you can sort of stutter the pedals in shorter motions (the fins will still hit the ground) and it will keep you moving. If you are going less than 8 inches I think the pedals become useless, in which case you push one pedal full forward, which raises the fin drive to its highest point, and you can paddle just like a normal kayak down to probably 6 inches minimum and that would be dragging the fins on the bottom. I have done all of this plenty of times to the point of being so shallow I also drag my rudder at times as well. So far everything has helf up and I have never been completely stuck to where I could not move using my paddle. Lastly worth mentioning, this company does send you an extra set of fins with the kayak so if you damage them you have spares!

I also saw the same review, but mine has held up great! IMO, the person whose rudder cable broke probably had it too tight, as it is adjustable, and you have to connect it yourself. The pedal drive is also solid and k have put it through some abuse. I have bottomed out and forced this thing through way shallower water than it should be in, dragging the pedal drive and rudder and still have no issues. Also a very good friend also bought one shortly after me and he has had no issues either.

Yes and no.... the connection point is not water sealed, but in order for the top of the seam to be low enough for water to get in, the kayak would basically need to be under water. I have had this out in rivers, lakes, and ponds and up to 30mph+ winds and have no issues with water in any way.

Not going to lie, I haven't tried it yet. They do make a stabilizer kit, I know that. But being my first fishing kayak and only having it out a few times so far, I don't trust my balance yet to try standing.

I used to have a soul and went up to the seltos when my son was born for a little extra space

The cart I have is "Onefeng Sports" on Amazon, it was like 40ish dollars and pretty cheap. I hope to get a better one in the future. The outrigger situation I have not looked into. I can tell you that when I moved the rod holder mount from up front to the rail, I learned that the threaded holes for the rod mount as well as the track system nuts were both M6 size. So, I would assume that the outrigger mounts would be the same. I should have an exact screw and thread answer for you later today as I am currently working on an anchor mount myself.

@@HookinWithJared thanks for your reply. I appreciate it. If you can confirm on the size of the screw; that would be great. On a different note if you do decide one day to get outriggers. Steer clear of the brocrafts or at least the one that is designed to be mounted on your rails. The rails on the reel yaks modular 9.5 are incapable of handling that weight and buoyancy stress. My trial and error would save you some time and headaches. I am currently looking for an outrigger that utilizes the round grooves behind the seat.

@johnnyphive4083 I don't have the info yet, sadly work went late today. BUT I did find a little good news. If you go to the Reel Yaks website they have their own stabilizer kits specially made for each of their kayak models and it comes with the mounting hardware! It's on their website under parts tab.

​@johnnyphive4083 if you do decide to go with the Reel Yaks stabilizers please consider using my referral, would be much appreciated! reelyaks.myshopify.com?ref=hookin

Ayyyy. I also fish our SoCal harbors. Alamitos Bay and Newport mainly. How do you like this kayak so far?

I'll hoping to have a video loading it up this weekend!

It's pretty legit! Had it out 2 more times since this video. Stability is good but not great. Went to a lake with gas motors and had no problem with the wakes, but I wouldn't stand in it even on calm water. Build quality so far is very good, and I ordered from Amazon which at the time shipping took 2 days on prime. A good friend ordered one a few days after me and his is set to be delivered the 20th, so it seems like the shipping is all over the place, and manufacturer website states 7-9 weeks. As far as I know this is the only modular sit on top fishing kayak available, so I think the demand is higher than production right now. Last, the weight capacity seems accurate, I don't sit low in the water at all and I weigh 210, plus all my gear and last 2 trips also had a cooler on board as well. Hope this helps!

@@HookinWithJaredthank you for getting back at me. I fish out of a bonafide ss127 its a great kayak but it needs a motor it doesnt have flush mounted rod holder and its a beast of a kayak even loading on my truck on a boat ramp is a pain. It also takes up a ton of space in the garage and it doesnt fit through the gate to put it in the backyard and i dont wanna spend 200 dollars on a kayak cart, i have the same kayak kart that you have and the bonafide is too big for the cart. Thanks again for the quick reply!

Thank you!

Thanks! I am just getting into soft plastics this year, as I have always run swimbaits and spinners and all that type of stuff until recently, so I would have never known!
