@@pedroll4434 no. They have a large wall in the way🤷♂️
Suppose shipping to Canada is out of the question as well?
Do you shipped in the Philippines?
Don’t see $599?
@@OanhHuuNguyen78 nope it says $799 now .
At that price point the Moken is hard to beat. Thanks for taking the time to compare the two kayaks. ✌
I agree. $599 is Bass Pro shop prices, with Headwaters quality and service thats a win win.
IDK the vibe kayaks are pretty hard to beat at the same price point.
I have an older version Moken 10 and Moken 12.5. I am a fan of both these boats, but my husband and I made the choice to buy two new version Moken 12.5‘s instead the 10 or a Lure. Here’s why. I am a paddler. I come from an open canoe background and I love how the 12.5 handles. I also love the speed of the 12.5 vs the Moken 10 or the Lure 10, 11.5- haven’t tried the 13. It’s 799, and you get a sonar pod, and adjustable seat. I don’t know if I will ever use the sonar pod, but it’s there if I needed, and it has that much needed improvement on the seat. Honestly, that’s the only flaw I can admit in my Moken 12.5. The boat is meant to stand in, but when you’re not a kid anymore, it’s not easiest thing in the world when you’re trying to fish. But that new seat has got to help a lot. And they kept the same hull, so I’m assuming it is going to paddle the same- which is like a DREAM. And again, I’m not trying to knock the 10. It’s a great boat as well, but if you’re going kayaking with someone who has a longer boat, or a hull that’s going to give you more speed, you’re gonna find yourself lagging behind. I went out with my husband with my Moken 10, and his big fish, and it was very hard for me to keep up with him. The 12.5 is sleek, it’s fairly fast, and I had absolutely no trouble with it in the wind even without a rudder. It’s just got to be One of the best boats on the market for the price. Spent a couple hundred more dollars and get a much better paddling boat. It’s going to beat the more expensive Lure hands down as well as far as paddling. I love the 12.5. The only thing is I can take my 10 and place it on the top of my car by myself. That 12.5 is just a little more than I can handle being a woman. But if I use the trailer, it would be no problem.
I can’t wait to upgrade. Glad the kayak manufacturers are getting more competitive and adding more and better features at lower price points.
Matter of time before China gets involved and sells a perfect replica of a 3000 dollar boat for 129.98 at Walmart
👍 I'm gonna have to make a 1.5 hr trip to the Nashville area, come better weather, and see the Moken 10 in person. Time for my 13 yr old grandson to upgrade from his Pelican Apex100, and get into something with more features and stability, and the rudder option on the Moken 10 fits the need, and the overall price is really decent. My Lure 11.5 is going into it's 4th season come June. 👍
I’m really thinking about getting into Kayak and I would love to see a video demo on the 2020 MOKEN 10. Thanks
Where are you located and do you ship. Cost
You’re the 1st video I’ve watched on kayaking and I’m super pleased with your very candid reviews because you’ve answered so many newbie/just thinking about my first kayak questions. I love that you said your shop will be the 2nd purchase if a person finds out if they like the sport so they can upgrade.
I’m in New Brunswick Canada and you’ve made me want to go talk to my local kayak shop to make a connection.
Thank you again - really appreciate your efforts in making this information available. Happy paddling 🛶
Your videos are great , best , most informative I've seen , really great. Cheers Dan 👍👍
Hey Dan! Somewhat off topic. My Dad currently has the lure 13.5 paddle only. Do you think the overdrive system is worth it? Is it a good drive? Thanks! Love the channel.
Eric Hodges honestly I’d try and sell it and get a Slayer Max. It’s not the cleanest retrofit. It works, but your pretty deeply invested in something that is not as good as its competition.
Got rid of my 12' 3 kayak to get something lighter and more compact but could still pack all my gear and stand up in. The only draw back to the moken 10 is the noise it makes paddling through the water but only when there's a alittle chop. it tracks surprisingly well for a 10 ft and i have no problem standing up and fishing. Removing the center counsel and making the whole deck open would of been nice. its really not necessary unless your putting a transducer in, which the Lure 10 was made for. Everything else about the kayak is great. My old kayak had the feel free seat and i can say i like the feel of the moken better, it supports the back better. Wheel in the keel is a god send. after hauling around a 120 pound kayak i don't think i could ever buy another kayak without one. There was no other kayak out there for the price with all the options i wanted in a fishing kayak, feel free killed it with moken.
I really enjoyed this video and so now I will keep you in mind for a kayak. And thank you for explaining the difference on the kayak’s.
I can’t wait for your videos on the Lure 13.5 V2 with overdrive.
I bought a Moken 10 last year and I’ll never sell it. Awesome.
Thank you for these videos, I’m in the market for a fishing kayak, and I’m a first time buyer. Very educational.
That’s a awesome kayak for $599 should be a HUGE hit this year for Headwaters and Feel Free 👊🏼🎣💯
Like 5 years ago a kayak like the moken v2 would have still been the same price as the lure v2. Great time to start kayak fishing!
@@chovue2363 True! ^^^^
I was just looking at the moken 10 that'll be my next kayak thank you for doing a review
I loved my lure. But sold it for a bote paddle board and can't be happier.
My only problem with your videos is that they are too good and give me too many options for trying to pick out my first boat. Thank you for all of your videos.
This was a fantastic review...I would love to have the same comparison for the Moken 12.5 compared lure 11.5 . Specifically for large River, Coastal bays.
I ordered the lure 10 va $899, just because of this review and consumer/engineering report
Now this one takes me back a ways when Chad Hoover sold me my 1st kayak eons ago, a sweet forest camo Moken 10., nowhere near as nice as this one. Nice to see Feel Free, Johnny Boast, & many others, are releasing excellent gear at reasonable prices these days, even releasing hella upgraded models at ( shockingly) better price points!!! #amazing
Ronnie Patterson crazy right! Things have come so far in a few short years.
Indeed sir, they certainly have.
A wheel in the keel, thats brilliant!!
And with a name like headwaters you should come open a shop in itasca MN the headwaters of the Mississippi.
you guys are awesome....i love the knowledgeable content!.... i wish you guys were in florida...
Would also like to see a paddle comparison reveiw if possible
Thanks
Dave Bard is like that too. We’ll see if I get time to hit the water soon.
Man that Moken 10 would be great for camping trips with the family! I hope it can handle fairly big guys (240 Lbs) for recreation and casual small lake fishing in the Rocky Mtns.
MrBlueSkyNM for sure it can. Plenty of capacity.
Love your videos and the knowledge you share so freely. I have been watching most of your videos regarding FeelFree, Crescent and Bonafide. Those are the 3 manufacturers I have narrowed down to. My model short list has the Bonafide SS107, Crescent LiteTackle and FeelFree Lure 10 V2. I am new to kayaking and will be out on larger lakes with boat traffic as well as smaller rivers with some currents but nothing classified as rapids. I am 60 yrs old and have C5,6&7 fused so overall weight (for car top loading), stability (avid fly fisher) and capacity ( I stay around 200#s @ 5'-11") are my determining criteria.
From these 3 boats would any be "the one" you would recommend?
Your reviews are great but you to "talk me into" every boat you like lol!
Any input would be great and thanks again for sharing your knowledge as I am sure you are helping many more people than you might hear from.
i wish there was an equivalent to you guys in new england MA
Hey Headwaters Kayak!! I've been looking through your videos reviewing all sorts of kayaks and I love it. I've been browsing on the internet for a fishing kayak for awhile now and found this particular kayak. I was wondering about the, Hoodoo Element 100s Sit On Top Kayak. It's retailing under $600 and I was wondering if you could do a review about the kayak or just talk about it in your future videos. I appreciate all your guys' work and especially with kayak reviews. Well, hopefully, you can give me or some of us a review of this kayak. Thank you for your time!
Really great deals on those two! Thanks for showing 👍
Nice that they came out with a 10ft with lawn chair style seat. The 10 footer will shine in skinny water creeks. How do you rate the plastic quality on the hull of the feel frees?
I will go with lure 10 v2, 4” wider is important for me, and the gravity seat is important for my old lower back.
Not sure if you already purchased, it he said there was a 2” (Lure 34” / Moken 32”) difference in width and the Feel Free web site says there is 1” difference ( Lure 34” / Moken 33”).
Hello Dan, I would be very interested in your thoughts on the Moken 10 V2 vs the Vibe Yellowfin? Living on the North Shore of Massachusetts I paddle mostly rivers. I'd like to upgrade to a sit on top to accommodate my 35 lb dog. Been waiting on local inventory on a Moken 10 V2 or Yellowfin 120. Only thing readily available is the Yellowfin 100. I'm 5'7 around 200. Currently paddling an old 12' dagger sit inside.
Hey Dan thanks for all the content. Love watching your videos they have really helped me get into the sport. With that said I think your specs maybe off a bit. Feel free says the Moken is rated for 440lbs. Which makes the comparison way closer in my opinion. Again thanks for what you do.
Yes but their weight limited are also way out of touch with reality. I’ve put lots of people in boats and anything close to 300 in a Moken and the paddler is going to feel tippy and probably capsize. 275 is realistic Max paddler weight. Some exceptions are out there, because not everyone is the same, but for the most past its not for big folks.
Hello Dan! Thanks for all the info! I have a question on some of the kayaks that have scupper plugs. I've heard some people complain about if you don't have them in, the kayak takes on water. (Hoodoo 100s) and some vibe kayaks. Do i need the plugs to use those? I've used a Jackson staxx before and splash water all over me and it drains right out. Just want to know of those are the same
Slick looking yaks and store well done, might have to look at these sometime for a single.
I really like the Moken 12.5 v2. That’s on my upgrade wish list!
How do you feel about the moken 10 lite? My kayak now is only 46lbs and the idea of going up to 60-70 doesn't seem great to me. I'm in Illinois and can't go sit in any feelfree kayaks because they don't sell them around here apparently
I just bought my 1st kayak. Unfortunately I don’t live near your store. I am making an 8 hour round trip to pick up a Moken 10 v2. I hope I made the right decision. I’m a big guy, about 295 pounds. This video is a big reason I went with the Moken. Any advice on must have accessories? Are the Feelfree paddles decent? Thank you for the great review and any advice you can give me.
Great comparison! Thanks for sharing it.
Like my Moken 10 v2, except the straps that hold the seat back. Sometimes rubs my arms while paddling. Seats comfortable enough.
There is some advantages with the lure 10 over the moken. But a great price for the moken. Good video
I love your Chanel and what you do
Thanks Mark. Appreciate you watching.
so I'm in the market to buy my 3rd kayak- pretty sure I want to go with the ff moken 12.5-use for bay and some lake fishing. I have a bad back and just curious to know your opinion on the 10 ft. boat. don't really have to paddle that far to get fishing (1/4) mile lets say, will the 10 be easier than the 12.5? bay may get 1-2 ft. swell at times with boats going by is it going to flip me out? in a shorter yak or would the 12 be more stable- and is the ff lures seat really worth the extra $$$$- love your reviews and the detail to the whole boat pros & cons your advice would be greatly appreciated. keep up the good work. thanks
This looks like one of the best good, inexpensive fishing yaks for small water yet! I'm in Michigan so I've got a few months to thaw out. However, I have been kicking around the idea of picking up a Vibe Yellowfin 100 but it seems this miht be better in price, quality and options? Maybe Vibe ups their game but all the rage seems to be with the Shearwater right now (whether great or average)? Any chance we could see a comparison between the Moken 10 V2 and Yellowfin 100? I'm also considering the Pelican Catch 100 as I can pick those up locally for $525. If I hate it I'll give it to my kids but any thoughts on comparing all three? I also just saw Jackson has stuck a peddle drive in their fairly new Bite (wonder when Dan might test that model)? That's too rich for me but interesting...
Great comparison the moken is a winner for me, thanks mate
A boat that costs less than my fishing tackle. My wife's going to love that.
Every now and then give them a designer purse that women like and it shuts them up and you can get away with stuff...lol
Another great review. Thank you.
Have you done an Ascent 10T, 12T, or 128T review? I believe those are the bass pro shop models. I am a first time kayak buyer myself and I have been watching a ton of your videos. Your content is excellent and I wish I lived in California so I could give your store my business. Keep up the quality content and god bless!
What a value for $599. This will be box store kayak killer.
MooMoo Outdoors you should review the moken 10.!
MooMoo Outdoors You got that right !!!
Nice review. I like the less expensive option for the open storage.
very beautiful!!! unfortunately a kayak of this level here in Brazil costs a fortune.
I am a new subscriber to your vids! Great job, I really like them! For this vid, in particular, I like the seat and price range of the Moken 10. I don't want to fish, just leisurely boating. What other kayaks in this price range have a comparable or better seat/options? Is this a good fit for a 6'-2 240 lb person?
If it's preplumbed for a rudder them why would pedals be an issue? I am a noob so I really am curious as to why pedals wouldn't be an option. Thanks for all the videos Dan! You do a great job!
It will take a foot pedal rudder system, but not the Feelfree pedal drive. The hand steering does not work on the Lure 10 setup.
Great Video Thank You I LOVE FEELFREE Kayaks. Stay Safe
I'm looking between the moken 10 and 12.5. Looking for something lighter and shorter for transporting when I take it with my rv. How do you think the moken 10 will perform with a bigger guy (6'2" 280). I currently fish from a 14.5' emotion grand slam angle which is a little cumbersome getting on my truck roof racks by myself...really like the moken 10 dimensions.
Dan that is Great but the only thing that is missing in this industry is Trade in it would be Great to go back to your dealer and trade your kayak after the sale that is it sorry.
You can purchase a motorcycle, car, boats , firearms on and on but kayak no will do is this correct or yourself take trade in.
Dan as always thank you for the video. I hope you can give me some insight.
Gio
Do you guys ship? I just bought a kayak today. The Emotion Stealth Pro Angler. For over 800 dollars. Is the kayak for 599 in this video better?
Really cool video, nice kayaks!
Just subscribed to your site. have you done any reviews on Ascend Kayaks (fishing)? I think they are sold only through Bass Pro /Cabelas stores. I wish I lived close to you so I could buy from your shop but since im in the midwest , it will most likely be a local purchase.
I just moved to a new house on a small river and am thinking about which kayak best fits my needs. I appreciate your videos very much! Too bad I live in SC and can't buy from your shop!
Hey, do you think the feelfree moken 10 v2 can handle the ocean? (New Jersey)
I need a new kayak for fishing. Would you recommend anything else?
I will be getting my first fishing kayak. Do you recommend the Moken for beginners or the upgraded one for 799.00? Thanks
Can you add the weight in your reviews
It’s nice to know which ones are for the 400 lb range for bigger paddlers . That would save watching an entire review only to find out its for a lighter person . Thanks Dan
Man was i wrong. I was set on getting a lure. Thought the lure v2 came with the new high back seat. Since that was some of the complaints I heard from consumers. N that would be a big upgrade along with pod and drive.
Also im curious with the big fish 105 sonar pod fit the lure?
How fast is the Moken 10 compared to say a Cresent ultralight 10?
New sub here, found your channel researching the Moken. I need a yak that tracks well and easily transportable on the roof of my CRV. I'll be using for inshore marsh fishing here on the Texas coast. What am I giving up in performance getting the 10' over the 12.5' ? This will be my first yak, your knowledge/input is appreciated.
Is the seat close to as comfortable as the lure 10? One more question the moken looks like the seat is easier to remove off the moken?
Sorry if you answered this in the video, but I’m working and dodging a meeting, haha. But can you set this up with a pedal drive system?
No I’m sorry.
Hey man nice video!
which is the best offshore kayak you recommend?
Love your channel....wish I wasn't in Tennessee so I could visit your shop. Thanks for the review...those two upgraded Mokens at those prices are unbeatable!! Can't wait to try them out and get one. Was looking at Vibe yellowfins...very comparable in size and price....but the seat adjustment and wheel in the keel just takes these Mokens over the top. Perfect for just float fishing down a river. If I fished lakes...probably go the lure for the pass thru deck for a fish finder....at these feelfree prices could just get one of each...Thanks again!!
one year later and $100 more expensive...at least MSRP. But honestly, the Moken 10 v2 is one of the few 10 footers I've found on the market with a decent max weight capacity....especially if you are looking for something and want to keep 100 lbs below max capacity while on the water. Plus it weighs less than 70 lbs. Now, if only I had a place to put it :(
I have a question. I am not much into fishing. We just bought two kayaks from Walmart for my daughter and her fiance who is going to get married soon. I could borrow one of those for the time being but they have no protection upfront. Under the water that is. The areas that I fish up here in Northwest Washington State is the bogachiel river the HOH River and the Sol Duc River. I don't think I can fit a kayak in the Dungeness. unless it's over full. So if I buy a fishing kayak for a river that has Ice Cold Mountain water coming down. It needs to be inexpensive because that's all I fish. I go like three times a year. So do you have any advice? I still haven't seen all the brands out there. Is there an off brand that will work for me like 10 times a year at the most. All the rest of the times it'll be in a lake for fun.
I have a boat myself. But have been interested in getting one of these for lakes or creeks ect. I even saw a video of someone fishing in the ocean on one of these. Now that really sparked my interest. My thing is I would want to be able to paddle with my legs. And have room to really fish. With a fish finder. I dont not know much about my options. Any advice?
Do you guys sell rod tip protectors individually to be able to add on to a boat like the moken 10 or a paddle bungee
How do these compare to the Pescador 120? Bought one last year only thing I don’t like about it is the rod holders. But then again I’m new to the game. Way better than my son Dolphin that’s for sure.
I would love to see a demo of the new moken
So would a perception pescador 10 be a good fishing choice or spend 50 dollars more for a moken 10? Thanks
Was hoping to see an on water review of the Standard, its not featured much on youtube. I did just order two of them but it was only because I like the open bow rather than a hatch.
I guess Covid demand has driven the price up...a lot. This model has gone up from $599 to a current price on the Feel Free web site of $714. Still seems like a great boat for the money....
You are lucky in the US, here in Europe, prices are double of that: nothing less than 1600€ for the german model.
How do they stand to the big fish 105.
Maybe a noob comment to make, but I saw your 2019 video of best beginner kayaks and was wanting to find something that's a bit of an upgrade! I have had the pelican trailblazer 100NXT for approximately 2 years, and I love it! I am hoping to find something that is a bit of an upgrade that I can go up and down the river (moving, with spots of minor white water that I sometimes have to get out and walk it) with (and maybe do some light fishing). Thoughts?
Samuel Schiltz what’s your budget?
@@bobseaver7807 the sky is the limit! I would prefer a sit-in under $900 if possible. And I LOVE how well my current kayak glides through the water!
I'm gonna take a serious look at this kayak. Had my mind set on a big fish 105 but for the price i like this better
Is it feasible to transport the 10.5 on top of a car? Suggestions? Love your channel. I want to buy Moken or Lure very soon.
Of course!
How does the moken 10 paddle and maneuver on small rivers, say compared to the vibe yellowfin 10?
Lure weight rating is 375.
Moken is 440.
How is the lure for a bigger person?
Awesome stuff.
Unfortunately, according to the website ,it's for pick up only and don't ship ,guess I'll need to look for something as awesome as this one somewhere else
Is that a live bait well it had in front ? Do they both have live bait wells?
It's supposed to have a removable sonar pod on the moken according to their website.
Danny Creighton 🤷 it’s not
Hi guys, can you answer a question for me? Do you know if the lite version of the 10 is rudder capable?
I got bad knees whats a good kayak for me...plus I'd like to stand to cast and fish..6'4 220lbs thx
Trying to decide between the moken 10 and the sea ghost 110. Which is the better bang for the buck?
Love the review, might have to go with the 12.5. It's just MORE. Thanks for going over both of them. A guy wants to get me into a lure 11.5 but would seem too slow. The Moken checks all the boxes.
Probably a stupid question but would u definitely take the moken v2 over the budget tamarack lifetime? I'm debating spending the extra and getting the moken
Harold Delano yes I would.
What is,your opinion on vibe sea ghost 110? Have you done an on water review?
Do u think the Moken would be ok to car top in my car rack? I can with my Pelican Catch 100 so I'm hoping the Moken would be just as easy 🤙
Have you made any videos on the bass pro shop brand ascend 12T? At about $500 I’d be interested on your opinion on this yak
What is the cheapest peddle drive kayak? That you would recommend.
How is the paddling and tracking difference between the two ?
Was just wondering if other color variations were available for moken. I only saw 3.
