That's my kind of excitement!

Here is another nice one.

I’ve changed my mind
Agree with LConn, and this video convinced me to get a more modern and higher quality option of what I had previously.

I got the slightly smaller version of the above
575lb capacity

I just watched the video... that is very well built! And the dude doing the video is a buddy of mine, Tony from down Houston area.

What Tony has is the 385 fast track angler (fta)
The fast track series from Sea Eagle has a very rigid knife like hull (its their best tracking hull and best hull for standing)
The fta is about $200 more expensive than the fx

The fx is made out of thicker materials and rated for class 4 rapids while the fta is rated up to class 2

Because I’ll be using this kayak primarily for launching from sketchy rocky and deeply forested locations, I chose the one made out of 2000 Denier (thicker material). Basically I chose the slow tank that’s more stable instead of the faster model. However, if I was going to purchase an inflatable to use as my primary kayak, no question I’d choose the 385fta.

I did purchase a $15 aftermarket long skeg and some two part pvc adhesive to add an extra skeg onto the 350fx to improve tracking.

Those Sea Eagles are nice but too expensive for me right now. I got my kayak for $150 as a floor model, though it looked brand new when I got it, factory sealed and everything.

Glad you posted that video CCTX, watched a couple more of Tony's videos.. Good memories of meeting him and then later on meeting him and his wife on the water a few years ago. Super good guy in my book and SeaEagle was lucky to get him!

Thanks LConn

8min to inflate
So far exceeding expectations

54lbs
The 350fx is made from thicker material, which is what I wanted for portaging over rocky and forested terrain and launching off rip rap. It’s also a bit shorter than the 385fta. The fta (fast track angler) does have an extra knife like rigid keel compartment that you inflate making it track really well. The fta is also $200 more expensive. The fta is 9lbs lighter even though it's almost 2ft longer because it's not made out of the thicker material. Hence the 350fx is rated for class 4 rapids while the 385fta only for class 2

So I thought this would be a nice work around (adding an extra skeg for $40--skeg+adhesive) to achieve the best of both worlds.

PSA

When you mix the Stabond adhesive (8 parts) with the catalyst (1part) mix it in a clean glass jar.
If you mix it in a plastic cup (like a Solo cup) the solvents in the mixture will quickly eat through the bottom of the cup

And wear a respirator

Follow the Stabond instructions—proper prep with MEK or isopropyl and sandpaper. Then it’s a two coat application to both surfaces with specific drying times for the coats

And measure twice and have everything lined up perfectly when you put the skeg base on the kayak. Making sure you have the skeg base centered and oriented in the proper direction.

When you sandwich the skeg with two coats of adhesive onto the kayak with two coats of adhesive, they immediately form an indestructible bond. You only get one shot of doing it right.

Seat mod
Comes with a nice, comfortable inflatable seat but I attached a lumbar support from the Wmart auto section ($15) for added low back support. The auto back support comes with a nylon harness buckle that I used to attach to the inflatable seat.

You're acting like a kid a Christimas time!
