Mine is being built. I ordered a custom color. I borrowed one from my dealer and took it down the Colorado river for a weekend. Great solo set up. Had to be the most comfortable I have ever been in a kayak. All of my gear, except for the cooler was under the deck. It's faster than what you would assume for such a large kayak. Can't wait until mine comes in.

I got it with the intention of using it as a tandem. Was very surprised at the Solo paddling. It's going to be an awesome kayak

What is your custom color? I love the yellow/black/...spider something.

They are very sweet boats. I'm leaning toward one with a rudder in forest camo. This one will do in the mean time.

Where can you pick up the seat/chair at?
Calling a sport Ghey isnt cool unless in the privacy of your glitter boat.

Any Jackson dealer would have them. Give Dave a call at Kayak Instruction 972-412-7691 he's your best bet. Mountain Sports is the other DFW dealer over in Arlington but I have this feeling they would have to order the seat and there would be some time added because of that.
