I just got that pelican rally yesterday. $253 after tax. No paddle. Threw it in the water w/o paddle just to feel it. Very stable. Felt great. Love the seat!
Maiden voyage tomorrow!

Thank you!! Responsive to feedback, I like it! This is the quality this channel has always delivered, thanks for fixing a mistake like that!

[lysan]

I really appreciate your efforts to get people on the water!

Your $500 kayak video a few years ago got me on the water. I still have and love my Lifetime Tamarack and still want but have not invested in a peddle kayak.

[jay_eyeiii]

was happy to see you walk out with a costco glizzy. No way you dont get one after shopping lol

[WisGuy]

Bought a pelican sit-in kayak from Costco six years ago for $300 with paddle. It was the equivalent of a $480 kayak elsewhere. The one real problem is that it does not track very well in any kind of current or wind. I remedied that by gluing a skeg on the bottom.

Just took my first shirt kayaking float last week. Ready to get my own, but have very low budget. Thank you so much for this!!! Ps.. have your walmart app open at Walmart.. scan for prices not listed. 😊

Great video and very educational in new at kayaking and I’ve been wondering about the quest also I’ve ran into online and never heard of the company before but read all these good reviews on it I’m so thankful you do these videos it really helps especially when someone doesn’t want to drop 600-1500 on a kayak when you don’t even know if you’re going to fully enjoy the experience or not.

[SippinGoose]

Great video. Walmart hooked you up for sure. 250 to 89 😮

[nickvanelzen]

This makes me want to hit up my local Walmarts and see if there's kayaks sitting in the sun and or are damaged lol that's such a great price

[KevinKuefler-tr]

You must be an awesome Walmart I live in Warren Detroit there's no such thing as kayaks around here LOL

[Funkayak-pi]

Learned so much from you. Whenever I feel unmotivated to paddle I watch your vids and next thing you know I'm on the water. Any chance you could review p&h especially the virgo. Even if it's just you discussing p&h.

[GaryThesnell]

I thought I got a deal on my lifetime chargers at $145 each but $89?! Wow what a deal

[dylandriscoll]

Damn I bought a pelican challenger I should have gotten the queast Outlands

Hey, I don’t know if you have a Tractor Supply around you. You’re the only guy that I think that I might be able to talk into doing this.😮 so Tractor Supply has just gotten in a huge quantity of different types of kayaks and a lot of them are modular two piece kayaks and you can even with one of the products you can buy a single kayak and buy another mod. That is another section so you can make it at tandem kayak. I’m only interested in the fishing. I think they call it a try Hall two piece modular kayak. It would solve so many problems but if I could tell before I buy it if it’s a piece of crap would make me so happy I live in an apartment in suburban hell I don’t know why you say that Olathe Kansas is a very nice suburb. Anyway, if you could get a hold of one and do a review on it, I’m thinking it’s gonna be pretty popular. It’s pedal drive fins in the only video video I’ve seen on this particular design was an Asian girl somewhere in Asia. I don’t like to say the country I think it is Only because for some reason that can get you in trouble I’m gonna make it freaking book out of this question and you’re not gonna read it cause it’s gonna be too long and I just can’t shut up. Please do video modular kayaks. Thanks. 🙏

Up here in Washington the Tahoma is at 334... and the Tamarack is at 398, if I am remembering correctly. I ended up grabbing a Pelican Saber at 234... it is sitting still wrapped in my garage because I am trying to convince my wife to let me take it back and get a better one, lol. (Also because I need to grab a paddle and a good PFD).. I am watching FB marketplace like a hawk... I think that other Pelican you looked at was 298. My son was interested in the Ozark Trail sit-inside Angler that was 315, but my wife is an RN and has been hearing horror stories about the sit inside ones and their lack of bulkheads causing them to sink and be hard to get out of.

[BobBohner]

That’s a fantastic video. What’s the same category results for sit on top yaks?

[TheRooster]

That blue Pelican Rally 100XP that you didn’t see a price on is $334, as of now, two months later. I just got one for under $300 out the door though.

[KevinKuefler-tr]

Hi Kevin again I have my kayak on the top of my roof I know where to put it right now could I put a heavy duty canvas top on top and give it some are let me know thank you

[mastrtonberry]

Great video but if you're using the camera mic in the stores like this it might be easier to hear you without background music
