    Just bought this boat from TG Saturday. Alex and his dad were AMAZING at selling this wonderful product. Their customer service and time they spent with me was like no other. Amazing people to do business with and couldn’t be happier with the Big Rig FD! Thank you Alex!

    What about transducer mounting? By utilizing the rod storage you couldn't use a yak attack arm mount. Very curious about this

      A arm swing can go up and over the rods in an ark form.

    How does it handle in open water against the wind in heavy chop

      In the chop its great, very stable, handles fine in the wind as well.

    So far I have bought a Jackson Big Tuna and a Blue Ski Boatworks Angler 360 from these guys. I have had a great experience with them both times. As soon as I sell my Big Tuna I'll be buying one of these new Big Rig FD's from these guys.

    is the steering handle by the chair stiff like the coosa hd? i assume they used the same rudder system

    • @tgcanoesandkayaks
      @tgcanoesandkayaks  5 років тому

      It feels very similar to the Coosa FD in my opinion, with a different handle.

    Still think the steering design is all wrong. And need a bigger tankwell. Jackson is close with this one, but not quite there yet.

      @@tgcanoesandkayaks Dual Left and Right like the Hobies. I demoed the Coosa Fd and didn't like the steering at all. Absolutely love the idea though of the drive kicking up when hitting something or running shallow.

    • @tgcanoesandkayaks
      @tgcanoesandkayaks  5 років тому

      I hope I am not misunderstanding, all Jackson pedal kayaks have steering controls on the left and right side of the kayak just like Hobie. Hobie uses a left right turning action while Jackson uses the forward back action. I agree the kick up prop was a great design on the Jackson. Its always a great idea to try before you buy, glad you are getting the opportunity to do so. Appreciate your feedback.

    Have you experienced any tracking issues with the Big Rig FD? I purchased the Coosa FD so I could fish with two hands while still moving. Unfortunately, because the kayak does not track straight I always tend to have one hand on the rudder steering knobs. As a result, I designed and fabricated my own larger rudder which is self-retracting so you can still fish in shallow water. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/gX1CZFJNjnY/v-deo.html

      @tgcanoesandkayaks  5 років тому

      I have found many peddle kayaks on rivers don't always allow me to free both hands consistently. I have had no issues with the HDFD. I watched your video, looks like a really great idea for more steering. Thanks for sharing.

    I absolutely love this design, but man that flex drive gets really hard to pedal after about 30 minutes.

    • @tgcanoesandkayaks
      @tgcanoesandkayaks  5 років тому +1

      Biggest adjustment I made when in a pedal kayak, is to go at a relaxed pedal speed. I have found peddling harder to try and gain 20% more speed just doesn't work in any peddle kayak, it burns my legs out very quickly. The drive design is great I will agree.
