TOOK THE PRO EXPLORER OUT FOR A DEMO THIS WEEKEND, AND
CAN HONESTLY SAY IT EXCEEDED MY
EXPECTATIONS. I'M 6'1-220 AND WAS WONDERING HOW IT WOULD HANDLE MY WEIGHT AND
HEIGHT. I FOUND THAT THERE WAS PLENTY OF LEG
ROOM, THE COMFORT LEVEL WAS LIKE FISHING IN A LAZY BOY. IT KEPT MY
BUTT EXTREMELY DRY, AND TO MY SURPRISE WAS A GREAT TRACKING KAYAK FOR IT'S WIDTH AND
LENGTH. ANOTHER BONUS
WAS THE LARGE HATCH ON THE BOW THAT MADE STORING POLE'S
WHILE GOING THROUGH THE SURF VERY
EASY. I MANAGED TO CATCH A 60+lb FISH AND THE YAK WAS A TEN PLUS IN STABILITY. THIS IS A GREAT YAK FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO DO SOME HARDCORE FISHING WHILE STAYING DRY AND SAFE.
"GOOD JOB MALIBU KAYAKS"
