the seat cage reinforces the sides and likely makes them less likely to buckle or fold and cause water to come in ; that was a very smart modification and improvement to the Tucktec
Watched this so I can put together the one that Tucktec sent as a donation to Xpose Hope and Kim's Place, a house for trafficked women for our annual silent auction. Now I need to order one. Because this is remarkable. I need the help to stand up as I am handicapped....and the velcro in the bow and stern. WOW. Thank you Tucktec for your donation, and of course, now I have to order one for me.
Just when I thought these things couldn’t get any better😂 I did like the functionality of being able to lift up the skeg when I needed to but the tradeoff for the new folding style and I’m assuming stronger construction seems fair
So no more retract line for the skeg? You just rely on it swinging up as it hits bottom, I guess. Seems like that's gonna make landing trickier, especially where it's rocky.
I was surprised the cotter pins seem to have been discontinued. Where the deemed not needed or why else? I am really looking forward to receiving the yellow pro 2025 model I ordered. Watching this video several times so I can assemble in 5 minutes on my first go. Happy paddling.
do you think it will be some kind of retrofit for the older tucktec to get the seat cage? it looks like that solved the weak point of the older generations that some people had theirs folded in from
We ordered this new model on July 17th and sent multiple emails. Greg was great in communication but the deadline has extended a few times. And I haven’t seen it shipped yet! I am so missing my last boat.
Keep checking shipping through carrier website, I didn’t get an email from Tucktec until it was was already a day from arriving, ordered mine July 25th and got it today
Hmm I just noticed, this boat is all yellow, and the one in yesterday's video is solid red. But the yellow one on the web site has wide black stripes on the edges of the shell. So which way will they be when they ship?
is there a video to attach the stabilizers? also: the seat cage needs to go in one way, not the other(flipped) the plastic part that grips the seat angles slightly down, if u put it in with that opening slightly up the bar on the seat doesn't go in (or itdoesn't sit on floor)
Yes, a sturdier seat and like the strapping and cage support behind the back! I have 2 other models and this seems much improved 🎉
Yes, I love this too. Seems like a big improvement.
What seat is it??

Very cool products! Have owned my tucktec for over a year now and it's gone with me on tons of adventures. Fits well in my compact car
Really love this new, smart design. Way less fussy than my 2021. Looks like the seat issue has been figured out too!
This guy is an absolute genius wished I had not watch the video ,now I got to get a pro model ,very very nice !!!!
Love it! It has features I like from the Boto and from my 2022.

I'm so excited to try this model! Looks like awesome improvements.
Can't wait to get mine in a few days, FINALLY 😁👌
Looks great Pete!
Wow. These are cool improvements!
The upgrades looking really good
Great vid, my friend! I may be due for another factory visit to see the latest magic in person!
come up and see us, George!
I ordered mine on June 29th and it still hasn't shipped! 😡 We're coming up on two months!!!
Me too!
Yeah, mine took like a month and a half.
@@carriefuhrman4129 I'm canceling my order if I don't get the shipping email by the end of this month.
I got mine this week; it took 2 months to receive it
I assume this is what is for sell on the website 9-02-2024. Thinking about buying the 2-pro deal.

My thougts exactly but of all the possible mods drillng a small hole thatll fit cord through should be easy enough

Interesting that the skeg attaches differently now. I might be concerned that it doesn't (?) popup when you paddle onto shore in shallow water.
Watching again I missed that the skeg is two pieces, so it would flex up.
It's a floating skeg, so it does come up when coming to shore

I thought the pro model come with the black rubber liner? wtf
is there a video to attach the stabilizers?
also: the seat cage needs to go in one way, not the other(flipped)
the plastic part that grips the seat angles slightly down, if u put it in with that opening slightly up the bar on the seat doesn't go in (or itdoesn't sit on floor)
Why is there no fin on this kayak?
Do you have any recommendations for alternative seats that can easily secured into the kayak? The standard one is uncomfortable
I understand this is the Pro model. Does the standard version use the same seat cage and seat?
Does the seat cage help with structural integrity of the kayak, or is it just for seat support? Or both?
Both
When will it be available?
dammit... i should have waited 4 months lol.... Can I trade up! Still not sold on this footrest setup though. Mine pop out constantly
When in 2025 will these be shipping?
👍
Come on y’all. Mexican and Canadian flag hanging nice and the American flag all f up?
