You can absolutely stand in it... The improvements I've noticed is they got rid of the back hatch that's pretty much useless. And they raised the front hatch so it doesn't take on as much water.

just read so reviews, looks like you can stand in the new ones



Indeed. Why I decided on it.And it just so happened my tax return this year after everything is right about 770. The new fs12t plus all the stuff I listed, the stuff others suggested, and shipping tax on all of it I estimated right around 750. Leaves me 20 bucks for pvc and fittings and hardware.

It's fate bro, I can't not get it now

That new FS12T is a gamechanger as far as standing up to price ratio. Before it came out, it was a minimum $700 to stand up (Native Ultimate, etc).

Hell of a re-design and new platform layout.

Boats, moons, Cringleberry, anyone else I'm missing.....are yall going to be able to make it to the May 31 weekend Yak Life GTG in Delacroix?

Didn't know about that but will definitely look into it. Sounds like a good time. Are you planning on going?

Anyone know of a red and black color combo on a decent kayak? Want one I can stand on if need be and under a grand preferably. I've been looking around and haven't seen the color combo on anything in the 12'+ range. Gay as it may be, I'd like it to match the jeep.

I think the Native Slayers have a black/red color combo. You can find the 12' for just under a grand.

Jackson has a really sick red/black combo. I think it's called black widow. For a brand new Cuda 12 you're at $1200-$1300 for just the boat though. You might be able to find one used though.

You can be a cheap bastard like me. Odds are I'll be getting this boat in the next week or two. I plan on buying a bunch of Bass Pro gift cards on CardPool.com. They're 13% off so you'd end up saving about $100.
