I am a small 5’1, 115 lb woman so when my ex left I found myself very limited since I don’t have roof racks or the physical strength to maneuver my big kayak. This gives me the freedom to kayak whenever I please and get back to my favorite pastime!
It took 4 months to come in. With Covid and the crazy world, this isn’t great but it’s to be expected. I work in manufacturing so I understand the difficulty with supply-chain issues. The first time folding is difficult but after folding all of the seams a couple of times it gets much easier. I didn’t time myself but I have no complaints with the time it takes (took longer to load/unload my old one safely from racks with help). It’s very wide so it’s stable but not the fastest. Great for a calm lake or river. Easy to maneuver since it’s so light. The seat I got only has one seat cushion and the back, I might add some more cushion at some point. I had to keep adjusting the strap for the back of the seat as it stretched throughout my first ride but there is plenty of adjustability in the strap.
So far I am very happy with this purchase. Thank you tucktec.
Glad you are enjoying your Tucktec! Thanks for the review!
I love my pink puddle jumper. I love that even though I am getting older and do not have the arm strength that I used to have. I do not have to give up being on the water.
Awesome kayak, and absolutely amazing customer service. Could not be happier with the purchase.
It works pretty well, but it’s a little stiff and hard to open. Just be prepared for that and you’ll be fine. I ended up using mine for a back support behind the chair.
Love the tucktec, I use it every weekend to go fishing in. I'd love to become a tester for any of the tucktec fishing products that are released!!
Has super fiscal scratches all over the out side . Was this new or refurbished. I think I paid for a new one. As far as the rating goes. I will let you know once I use it on June 10 2022 .
I was able to put the kayak together in 5 minutes and was out on the river in ten. It worked as well as any hard shell kayak I’ve ever been in, and I am excited for the many adventures that are now accessible to me.
