    Great commentary and enjoying watching you travelling along the Savannah Way, such beautiful camp sites. Amazing..
    There is a common misconception about Lithium batteries and using them down to 20%. Yes you can do this but but if you check the cycle rate from the specifications you’ll see this will shorten the battery life like any other battery.
    Keep smiling and don’t change your style of video graphing, great work..
    Cheers
    Stay safe..

      Hi Len, thanks for your comments and glad you enjoyed that trip 🤙 Yes, we talked about the batteries and cycle rates - it’s rare for us to drop below 50% but it’s good to know you have the extra power now and then if you need it 😊👍

    Hi Jackie, really enjoying your journey. Have been following you from the start. I've been along the Savannah Way a couple of times, but only in a 4wd. We hope to be doing it next year in our caravan. I must say that your videoing, drone work and editing is amongst the best out there and I would go as far as to say that you leave a lot of the other vloggers with tens of thousands of subscribers to shame. You should be proud of yourself. Thank you!

      Hi Let’s Go Travel Australia. Thanks for watching & subscribing 👍. Our kayak is KXone 410. We purchased online from Bay Sports. It’s a great kayak! We’re used to hard shell ocean kayaks so as an inflatable we are really impressed. It’s a Drop stitch design so super rigid & has a slide in rudder. Glides and tracks well. Easy to inflate and deflate. Not real roomy for two but we chose this one so we can go solo or together. It is pretty bulky when packed down so takes up a bit of space in car. Only 15.5 kg so easily manageable! 😃

    • @letsgotravelaustralia
      @letsgotravelaustralia 2 роки тому

      Thank you so much for your reply, much appreciated. We had a very good hard shell tandem kayak but due to a change in vehicles we not longer wanted to carry one on the roof so were looking for other options. Your reply particular in relation to the drop stitch has helped set us on a path to investigate further and get rid of some of the confusion over soooooo many makes and models. We do have a Labrador who loves to come kayaking with us so will be looking into one of their slightly bigger kayaks to accompany her. Again thank you so much for your reply and will look forward to more UA-cam’s. 😁

      Hi Sean, glad you enjoyed the vid. It sure is an adventure out there. Our kayak is a KXOne 410 slider. We purchased from Bay Sports online. It is a rigid drop-stitch design - pumps up to 8 psi. It comes with a slide in rudder, and glides and tracks well in the water. Only 15 kgs. It packs down easily but does take up a lot of room in our vehicle (only downside). I think all the dimensions will be listed online. Have a great day. 🤙

      Hi Kathy. Glad you’re enjoying the vids. We love the kayak. It’s a KXone 410, purchased online from Bay Sports. It’s a drop stitch design so super rigid, and has a slide in rudder. It glides and tracks really well. We prev used hard shell ocean kayaks but we’re impressed with this one. At 4.1m it’s a bit tight for 2 people with your day bags in but it’s also suitable for solo use. It weighs 15.5 kg so quite manageable. Only con - it’s quite bulky when packed down in its bag so takes a bit of space in back of vehicle 👍

      Hi Anne - its so exciting being in the planning stage - enjoy 👍 Our kayak is a KXone Slide 410, purchased online from Bay Sports. Its rigid and pumps to 8 psi so moves well in the water and also has a rudder. Only downside - its fairly big when packed down but does fit in the back of the vehicle.

      Hi @denton3385, it’s a KXONE Slider - 4.1 m. It’s a drop stitch floor design and inflates to 8psi - so it’s rigid. That’s what makes it so good. Great for long distance. We bought it online. You can check them out here:

      Hi Jack. Glad you’re liking the vids. The kayak is a : KXOne Slider 410, Double Inflatable Kayak. We purchased online from Bay Sports. It’s a drop stitch design so it’s rigid when inflated. This makes it quite fast on the water and with its rudder it tracks really well. Good for longer distances and a lot of fun. Weighs about 15 kg.. it’s a bit bulky when deflated so takes a fair bit of space in the back of the vehicle. Price currently $1500 I think 🤙😃
