Questions & Answers

The mount for a solo unit is a 1" or a 1." What is 5"?

I've only got a Hi-Fi There is a recess in the 5 that can be used for either of the solo mounts. It is necessary to purchase the solo mounts

Does this work for younger kids as well or is it mostly for younger kids? I'm a long skinny 12year old about 90 lbs. Is it okay for me? The fact that it could fit in the back of our van appeals to me. ?

I have a daughter of comparable weight and size, the bra fits her just fine. The thing she likes best about this kayak is that she can stand on top of it like a paddle board.

Could you please provide me with contact information for If they have an estimated time when this item will be back in stock, perhaps they could let me know?

An Amazon customer service representative reached out to the seller for me as I could not reach the seller

A great kayak, but it isn't the same color scheme as it appears in the picture
3/5

While choosing this kayak, I looked at a lot of product photos but the color of the kayak that I will receive is not nearly as bright as the photos in the catalog. Perception kayaks are made to have a smooth ride, and the kayaks themselves are fantastic. It was expected to be much brighter and more exciting in terms of color scheme, and I got this very subtle variety that lacked any real representation of the advertisement. I am not happy with the colors, but I am very happy with the kayak and it is not worth returning just to wait another month for it to arrive.

5/5

I received it much sooner than I expected! I'm glad it came earlier than I expected. Even though it came with thin plastic wrap (not even padded) and was shipped all the way from Canada, it was miraculous that the paddle wasn't damaged, because it could have easily broken. The book is perfect for my child who is 10 years The fact that it fits in the back of my SUV with the two seats folded and is light enough for me to carry is a great feature. We took it for a short paddle board ride on a lake nearby and my son was able to stand up and use it like a paddleboard. It was big enough for me to use as well, since I am a small person. I bought it to try kayaking in calm waters with my son. It seems of great quality and just the right size. I've been out with her a couple of times and so far she's doing great! Our decision to not travel this summer was a result of a chronic illness. The family has been enjoying this summer activity since August 19 and it will continue for at least another month longer.

Buying a boat for kids is their first step
5/5

My first impression is that the colors are as shown in the pictures, despite not having it in the water yet. It's important to note that perception results in quality and you can tell that based on how well this kayak is built. This was purchased for our daughter who loves to paddle in my boat down the lake. I thought she could use it for her whole life and get comfortable with the sport. It fits her perfectly (she is tall and petite) and I can see her using it up to about age 10, perhaps The paddle is not my favorite, but I think that it is appropriate for what the paddle is being used for.

Totally awesome experience and I could not be more happy
5/5

On this board, my kids have had some great days playing together, giving them easier balance and easier access to the board. The space we have is large enough for two If all three children stay balanced, they can go on at the same time! This is a great buy!.

He was as good as a duck to it! He is seven and a half and it is amazing how well he learned how to write
5/5

Our family lives on a small lake with lots of water. He is enjoying himself very much! This is a very well-made product. This kayak would certainly be recommended over others for young people.

Seems like it may have been used before
3/5

I was so excited for it to arrive prior to its scheduled delivery date, so this isn't a one-time deal It has a star rating of 4. The way the package was delivered was very disappointing. Scrapes are present on the body, and on the logo it appears that it is already peeling off. A thick layer of sand covered it, making it difficult to see. Despite the fact that I bought a NEW kayak, it appears to have been used before. Rather than a seamless blending of colors as shown in the pictures, the coloring appears blotchy. Having not yet tested it in water, I am unable to comment on how well it performs. It was just a lot of build up for the actual event to be disappointing.

Kayaks for children that are the best
5/5

I absolutely love the kayak that my granddaughter got! It's so strong, so well made, and so beautiful! Once my littlest grandchild reaches the age of 1, I will definitely purchase another! The kayak is quality made and a great price. I am very happy with my purchase.

5/5

An illusion sits atop! I can't think of a better combination! Access 9 is available on both of our systems. A 6 year old we foster is the recipient of this book I bought for her when she was 5 years old.
