I appreciate the review. Thanks for the comment comparing it with the RVR. I am a river guy and like the RVR. The only thing holding me back from purchasing a RVR is the lack of in hull storage. I will be mounting a NK-180 on whatever I choose. Bonafide has done a really good job building kayaks ready for a motor.
I like the RVR alot, been running the nk180 on it over the past couple months and it's nice. Agreed Bonafide has done a good job on their last two kayaks, both with specific waters in mind and modernized for the future 👍
Mine is on order and will be here the end of March. I'm gonna run the NK-180 on the back of mine. I will be doing 98% river fishing in mine. Can't wait. I have 2 of the ss127, and can't wait to see how this is a better Yak.
OK so I ordered my PWR 129 and they only gave me the three colors to choose from and I’ve been seeing videos all over online with the Cool almost camo color scheme like yours. And mines pre-ordered to pick up at my paddle shop February 1 and I picked the battleship gray but it’s not really the color I want I want that color scheme that you have how the heck do I get that is there somebody at Bonafide that I specifically need to talk to or do you just know somebody or did your paddle shop offer that color to you? How do I get that color scheme that’s what I really want man.
Camo is a 2024 standard color and available. Ask your dealer if they have any on order and if you can switch colors. They may have already sold the camo color before your order, thats a possibility as well. There is no need to talk to Bonafide. Talk to your dealer.
@@tgcanoesandkayaks just got off the phone with my paddle shop dealer and he’s giving me the runaround telling me there’s only three colors to pick out. Probably gonna have to drive over there after work one of these days and show him that those aren’t the only three colors I can get. Thanks for the Quick reply back I’ll be showing my dealer your video with your color scheme and these comments here along with a few other peoples videos and comments on it to prove to him otherwise lol. Hopefully it works out and he can get me that camo color scheme I want before it’s too late.
@@Flukemaster seeing the demo boat that Hans had you and Chad Hoover on is what sold me on this color and the boat itself. I watched every single video you guys put out on this kayak in the last 3 or 4 months. I was going to go with the RVR 119, but I like this one because it’s like the RVR and the SS 127 got together and had a baby. I’m pretty sure you said something similar along them lines in one of the videos. either way if my ordered is already set in stone and it’s too late to change the color it’s still gonna be a great boat. I’m just counting down the days just shy of a month hope it goes by quick.

@@tgcanoesandkayaks Where are you carrying your battery on the RVR. Does it need to be in the front to balance the weight?
@FISHINGWITHFRISBY yes, I am running my battery up front for better trim

The PWR is awesome, fits my needs better and was well worth the upgrade from my SS127
Awesome kayak!
Alex, thanks for this review.
Appreciate ya stopping by Tom 👍
Would love to see the SKF
Nice boat
👍
Nice review. Kayak looks heavy on the paddle. Looked like you had to really dig
For the size of the kayak, I am pleased. A good blade helps. Gonna be throwing a motor on the kayak next to really see its potential.
Awesome vid! Where was this that you put in?

He was probably looking at the SS colors. I don’t understand some dealers lack of knowledge of the kayaks they sell.
