    • +The Pedal Drive is easy to assemble
Color: Sonic Camo Pattern Name: Sit On Top
I've had this kayak for around 2 months now and have been able to take it out on around 5/6 trips. This quick review is a review from what I have experienced so far. It should be noted everyone's experience will differ based on the waters you will fish. I fish freshwater lakes and rivers so this review will be for those waters. I'll review based on some categories: 1. Shipping/Assembly. +The kayak arrived quickly and undamaged. I received the kayak about 1 week after placing the order. You will have to make an appointment and be present for the delivery. Must sign for this item. +The kayak arrives with the following: Kayak,Pedal Drive, Bungee for both front and rear storage, Rudder and Gear Track - X2. All items arrived safely and undamaged. +The Pedal Drive is easy to assemble. If more instructions are needed, there is a step by step video on Youtube. -The Rudder assembly, while not difficult, did not come with instructions. This may have been a missed item in my order but it was a slight annoyance. Again, Youtube or Perception's website can assist. 2. Pedal Drive / Rudder Operation. +As a huge selling point of this kayak, I feel both systems are outstanding. The pedal drive has allowed me to quickly travel up and down river as well as around lakes. Pedaling is effortless and can be sustained for hours. Times where I had difficulty Pedaling against the current have become times where I fly up river. +The rudder works great in keeping you tracking well. When I am fishing rivers, I was able to stay almost stationary with occasional pedaling. The rudder kept the kayak from drifting one way in the current. -When pedaling for longer duration trips, I have had issues with the nuts which attach the pedals to the drive, coming lose. While this is a small issue, it can be annoying. I also had to tighten the rudder lines when I originally received the kayak. I have had no issues with the rudder since. Solution to both = Keep two Allen Wrenches in your bag, 1 for the Pedals and 1 for rudder adjustments on the fly. +Pedal drive seems to be very well made and durable. I have struck bottom many times (Shallow Rivers) and have not had any damage to the drive or Rudder. ****** I saw many people asking the depth required for the drive to work. Based on my experiences, the drive needs around 14'' to 16'' of water to work. Again, some people's results may vary based on weight in the kayak. 3. Ease of Use / Additional Features +The ability to transfer from having a lowered drive to flush with the bottom is amazing. It lets me cover ground quickly in deeper water and then explore extremely shallow areas if I wish as well. The process to lift the pedal driver up is easy and can be done in seconds once you get the hang of it. +The Kayak comes with a paddle holder (bungee type) on the side. I have found that my paddle is held securely and can be accessed quickly if needed. +The chair is very comfortable and can be easily adjusted for any height to get the best position to pedal. This is very nice when you decided to anchor and sit for awhile. I am able to stretch my legs and relax. +Front and Rear storage areas offer a large amount of room to work with. Am able to fit fishing bag, cooler and additional items in rear storage alone. -Storage inside hull could use work. The hole is very small and almost impossible to access while on the water. ****I have not used the two gear tracks much yet so, no review there. 4. Stability +I have had no issues with stability. I am able to move around and access front and rear storage easily without fear of tipping. ****It should be noted, I have not tried to stand in this kayak yet Final Verdict: Overall, I feel like this kayak is exactly what I wanted. For the price, I would buy another one in a heartbeat. The kayak has major positive points and very few negative. Most negative points can be dealt with just by being prepared and taking a few minutes prior to launch. Overall, I would highly recommend this kayak. ... show more

    • Nice product but poor delivery
Color: Sonic Camo Pattern Name: Sit On Top
Review Image by Hangi Hangi
It is nice product. I just received it and tried to assemble. The package prastic was ripped and wholes so I worried there might missing parts. I asked Amazon delivery about it and they said "we don't know we just delivery product and don't know what parts it has" when I trto assemble I couldn't find manual but I don't know it was provided so I tried without manual. And I can't find a bolt. I assume that bolt will delivery with manual but it missed during delivery. There are storages which can store manual and parts. I give 5 stars but little disappointed. Please let me know how to solve this. ... show more

    • Parts didn’t fit
Color: Moss Camo Pattern Name: Sit On Top
Was excited to get the kayak.. the left pedal was the wrong size and wouldn’t thread in. Customer support from Amazon was useless and the vendor they transferred me to has a form submission process and takes 3 business days to hear back. Be smarter than me and buy at a store where you can get actual support. Amazon was no help. May try for a return.. ... show more

    • The kayak arrived on time in excellent condition from the seller
Color: Sunset Pattern Name: Sit On Top
I have been wanting this kayak since this model came out last year. We were very hesitant to make such a large purchase online, but it isn't sold in our region. Since I've had such a positive experience buying from Amazon sellers, we took a chance. I am thrilled with the results. The kayak arrived on time in excellent condition from the seller, and it is easy to use. I am a 55 year old woman in good health, and find it manageable with the use of a kayak cart to transport it from the truck to the landing, although I do have to transport the pedal drive separately to make the overall weight manageable. It is comfortable and fun to use, and I can't wait to get back on the water soon! UPDATE 6/10/17 I have had the kayak and used it for several months now. If you are seriously considering purchasing the Pescador Pilot you have probably become aware that Perception has encountered some problems with the pedal drive prior to models manufactured before February 2017. Since mine was purchased prior to that, I did encounter occasional problems with the prop free spinning and the quick key slipping. Thankfully, we contacted Perception and they sent out an entirely new pedal drive within a week, with instructions on the installation. My husband installed it, and the new drive works perfectly with no slipping or free spinning at all. I would definitely still recommend this kayak. I love it, and it is great to know that Perception stands behind their products. ... show more
