KC, you are a special person to be creating such wonderful videos. I am pushing 80 and still get out on the water and must admit your Florida Gulf Coast videos keep the fires lit. Wife and I launch two hardshells off of Thule Hullavators on a Tundra, but your move to inflatables has me rethinking our strategy. Having a hard time picking the best Sea Eagle model for our future life on the water, but your videos have been invaluable.
Thanks for watching and commenting John!! If you want fast and high performance like a 25-28’’ wide touring kayak, then choose the RazorLite. If you want the performance of a wider, sit on top fishing kayak, then choose the FastTrack. Hope this helps!!!

Another great video Cliff!! Makes me want to move to Florida even more now!! Hope you get an opportunity to come up to Arkansas and enjoy the Natural Star sometime!!
Been there paddle boarding in the tunnels! Great video hope it turns a bunch of folks on to this adventure. Nothing like a little creation therapy. God bless!
When I'm paddling the mangroves in my kayak, I bring a telescoping "emergency" paddle used for boating. Ranges from 20" to 40". You can pick them up on Amazon for ~$15.
This is just awesome, Cliff! Definitely going to check out Weedon next time I visit family in the area. Also intrigued by the Razorlite kayak as a good all around rec craft for bringing my dog along…going to watch your other vids with this boat next 👍🏻

Thanks Cliff. I never knew you could use/apply the electronic GPS like that for kayaking too. Very cool. Those of us w/o Florida experience are clueless. Also, I would have to write down my turns :) Would not want to meet a sizable gator back in there :) Those SUPers are brave...
Hi LJ - Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Yep, I love the ability to look at the satellite maps on my iPhone. It has gotten me out of being lost on more than one occasion! Safe adventuring out there!
Hi 👋 James - All I ever get is some paddle drip that accumulates after a couple hours of paddling. No big deal though, it only adds up to about a quart. The accumulated water doesn’t slosh around and get you wet, because it sits below the floor of the boat and out of the way. I don’t usually have problems with water coming over the bow in choppy conditions, because the RazorLite is so buoyant which keeps the bow up when large boat wakes / swells come up. The bow just seems to lift up naturally, due to the inflation and the high load carrying capability of the boat. If you are doing major sea kayaking in large open ocean / water with wind and big waves, yes, you will probably want an enclosed cockpit kayak that is sealed shut with a skirt. Hope this helps, safe adventuring out there!
Great video, Cliff! It's clear I'm going to have to take a trip to FL with my Razorlite in the near future. So many places to paddle there. I always enjoy your 393RL videos. Potentially dumb question: you mentioned taking a canoe paddle in the mangroves...couldn't you just separate your Aquabound and use one half of it? Maybe wrap a cloth around the open end to avoid any discomfort to the hand gripping it? Or is that a very bad idea? Also, just FYI: I think you meant the early part of the 20th century, not 19th century when you were talking about the airport (19th century would have been 1800's). Thank you for taking us with you to the mangroves! P.S. Meant to ask: were you using your skeg in this video?
Lol, What’s a 100 years . . . ? I hate it when I do that, oh well . . . Enjoy your adventures in that RazorLite, hopefully you’ll get down to Florida soon. I’m getting ready to review the FastTrack and the Explorer Sea Eagles as well. You’ll probably see them in some of my adventures too coming up. Take care!
This is a really cool paddle spot! I will have to plan a voyage there next time I'm in Tampa visiting family. Good tip on the shorter paddle. Thanks for the video!
Hi Kayak Cliff. I am going to be purchasing a seaeagle boat soon. I know you have made a few videos on the new 437PS PaddleSki. Would the PaddleSki have done well with or without a motor on this adventure? Thanks in advance and keep the great videos coming!
Hi there Brad! Thanks for watching and commenting! While the PaddleSki is a do-everything boat, I don’t think it’s 48’’ width would be able to squeeze through the tight mangroves that occur on some stretches of this paddle. I hope this helps, stay safe out there!!!
Hi 👋 Eli - I launch from the boat ramp within the Weedon Island preserve. Just enter through the main gate and follow all the way down to the end of the road and you’ll find the boat ramp easily. Great place to launch 🚀
Thanks for the video Cliff. The more I watch your video, the more I’m considering on selling my hard kayak for the 473rl. How does the hull handle nosing this kayak on a rocky, or sandy beach? Or how will this handle any stray protruding roots of the mangroves? I want to explore the mangroves in the Keys with my wife.
Hi Arvin - Sorry for the delay. I “nose” the kayak into sandy beaches all the time. If it’s rocky, I just pull up along the shoreline, parallel to it, and get out. Even when I had boats, I was always careful not to pull up on areas that could damage / scratch my boat. The hard plastic V shaped feature at the bow, cuts through water like a knife and does well up on sandy shorelines too. If the extremely durable black 1000 denier material behind the plastic bow gets scuffed, I just smear a little black flex seal paste on it to protect it. Hope this helps, below are other adventure videos in my RazorLite: 393RL Razorlite Kayak - Slow rivers & flat / open water, high performance: Sea Eagle website RazorLite page - bit.ly/3Enpq1z My review of the RazorLite - ua-cam.com/video/wCpz9gl_8Nc/v-deo.html Adventure videos in the RazorLite: Paddling & Diving sunken airplane - ua-cam.com/video/gFZ9gjnO1r8/v-deo.html Earth Day Caddo Lake - ua-cam.com/video/ceOGrVkOyzU/v-deo.html Weedon Island Mangrove Trails - ua-cam.com/video/9lNst39pZsk/v-deo.html Ft Worth Nature Center - ua-cam.com/video/30iakMQHkaI/v-deo.html Trinity River Elm Fork - ua-cam.com/video/o6LbEkF7Vrc/v-deo.html Silver Springs Florida - ua-cam.com/video/T8MZjjmxM9Y/v-deo.html How to fold the RazorLite - ua-cam.com/video/Dfbp_lm3jGY/v-deo.html
Cliff, love your videos. Went ahead and bought a couple inflatable BOTE kayaks to go out and adventure. Do you have an opinion on the lono aero? I'm in central FL too. Hope to catch you out there
Hi there, I have seen those BOTE inflatable kayaks. They look very interesting indeed! Looks like you will have the ability to either kayak paddle or stand up paddleboard. I would be interested in knowing how you feel they perform in windy conditions. Have a great weekend and safe adventuring!
Hi K9! If you don’t have a paddle and you want something decent. Their carbon fiber shaft with resin blades is a nice paddle. That is what I’m using in that video. The aluminum four part paddle is nice, but it is heavier and ultimately you will be looking for something a little bit lighter if you cover a lot of miles.
Hi 👋 Jesse! Ha! Sounds like you are speaking from experience, Lol. We all have been caught in places at the wrong time with mosquitos. I’m like you, once I get caught, I don’t do that again!
Great videos Cliff! I just recently came across you and have been looking at your videos. I subscribed and I’m giving them well-earned Likes. I also have a 393RL and wanted to ask you about your camera set up in the front of the kayak. I’m assuming that is where you are placing your GoPro. Would you mind telling me what the mount setup is and how you attached it to the floor of the kayak? Also, how are you recording the great sound quality? Do you have a separate mic or is that just through the GoPro? I don’t have any experience with a GoPro yet. Thanks again for the great videos!
Hi Dave - Thanks for watching and your kind comments! I’m going to post a few links of everything I use to record via the gopro out of my SeaEagle boats. It would be nice if you could just screw down a camera mount, but that won’t work Lol!

Hi LJ - I was not using the skeg on this paddle. I like the kayak to be responsive when I need to turn. I find it tracks extremely well without the skeg when I am paddling, but I’m an experienced paddler that can compensate my strokes when needed. When I stop paddling, it tends to drift. Now that’s just me, with this kayak you have options. If you would rather have the skeg for rock steady tracking, it is there for you to use. I use mine when I’m in open water windy conditions or when expecting swift cross currents. Take care and have a great week!
Nice finally put the 393rl in the water with skeg, like a razor

I take my paddle apart and use only half like an oar when I paddle the mangrove tunnels
👍 i’m definitely trying that next time!
I cant believe how close I was to this 2 years ago. I kayaked around old Tampa Bay. Will definitely put this on my bucket list!
I really love when I have a chance to paddle through mangrove tunnels down in Florida. It’s a pretty cool experience!
