Kysek bought KC but that looks like the same boat to me and it still looks thermoformed. I could be wrong

That was the word but it’s the exact same boat with different colors. Maybe if Kysek will market them better they’ll be more popular. It’s a great fishing platform.

I wonder how Kysek stays in bus? I never see anyone with a Kysek ice chest. They should just sell the kayak design to RTIC and have them produce it.

They are local as well. Mandeville I think?

It looks like the Blue Sky 360 Angler won best boat for 2018. I know someone said they had one ordered from the Kickstarter campaign. Its a pretty badass boat.

I have no interest in buying one but I still want to check it out, cool concept for sure. I think one of the reps told UncleJack they'd do 5-6mph or something like that, that seems like a stretch.

They are fast. I tested a model way before news was out about them. It is bigger than it looks and it is fast.

Definitely bad arse vessel. Wonder how it would be to car top. Part of me says, for $3500 and it's size, why not just get a little flat boat or skiff. Still pretty cool though.

I think the Dorado will start a trend of loaded Kayaks. Hell, if it had a better drive I'd buy it.

There's a problem with the drive?

I watched some videos yesterday. It's bulky, slow, and very noisy. And is just too deep for what I do.

Pretty easy because the 2 pontoons snap on and off of the main frame. So it breaks down into 3 sections to make transport easy if you don't have a truck or trailer.

Anybody here use a Lure with the new Feelfree drive? Can't really find much on reviews for it online since its so new. Trying to decide whether to wait on the Dorado or get a PA
