I get nervous about buying things online, especially something this expensive and big. I was so pleasantly surprised when the delivery driver pulled up with well packaged, undamaged kayaks. We bought 2 and couldn't be more happy with these - they are easy to carry, perform great, the back rests are sturdy, and the whole thing is exactly as advertised and what we were hoping for. Would definitely buy these again.

I can’t tell you how much I love this kayak. It’s easy to get in and out of. I just get in and out in about 1or 2 feet of water. That way I can just sit down to get on our stand up to get off. I’ve had knee replacement so I can’t stand up from the ground. This thing is easy to paddle. I do recommend getting a set of wheels. It’s very stable. I feel safe and secure on it. It’s worth every penny. The weight limit was one of its biggest selling points for me as I’m a big woman.

The media could not be loaded. This kayak is amazing! The only thing I wasn’t super thrilled by was it didn’t have any white on it like the product photo. Overall it looks a lot more purple than the marbled look. It still looks beautiful though ! (Does not come with a paddle)

I'm newer to kayaking and always have used sit on top kayaks (mostly ocean brand). I needed to get a kayak that was lighter and smaller and hoped for a good looking one, too. I find this to be not quite as stable as the ocean sit-on-tops that I've used, but it is comfortably stable and I find it easy to maneuver around. It is more sleek in my opinion than the ocean kayaks but maybe just slightly less sturdy in overall feel (still feels sturdy to me, though). I love this Perception Tribe, and I plan to buy a couple more since the length, weight, color and ease of use are all more than satisfactory.

*This will be a long, thorough review. Strap in, maybe grab a snack.* First off, it’s a beauty. Exactly as pictured. You’d be hard pressed to find a more gorgeous boat. Ordered it Aug 25th, received it on Sept. 2nd. Not an insane shipping time for such a massive item. (I live in the southwest U.S.) Now, I received it just a few minutes prior to 6:30 A.M., and I don’t know about you all, but I wouldn’t get up before 7:30 A.M. on purpose for even the sake of Christ himself, so be more on top of it than I was and pay attention to the app so you can choose your delivery window. I’ll start off with what I like about it. The side handles and the bow/stern holds are solid. Not all kayaks have carrying features that convenient, so I really appreciate those features. The chair is adjustable and more solid than 90% of kayaks I’ve seen and used. I saw some reviews about the straps getting in the way, I didn’t have anything even resembling that issue, I think the design of the seat is damn near flawless. Cargo hold areas have really solid elastic cord, so even if the boat tips a little (and all sit on tops do) what you have under the cord is staying put. What really sold me on this kayak in particular over other options was the high weight rating. 300 lbs gives you A LOT of ability to carry cargo, and if you plan on doing a day trip or lake shore camping, every pound counts. Most all other kayaks that are capable of carrying that kind of cargo aren’t under 10 ft. long like this one is, that’s for sure. Personally, I like as little bow and stern hanging off my car roof as possible. However, that high weight rating also means this kayak is heavy, which leads me into what I don’t like as much about it. When I say it’s heavy, I mean it. I’m a petite woman but I weight train and am significantly stronger than an average female. Still, I don’t stand a snowball’s chance of moving this by myself. Because I’ve got a partner who can help me move it, that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning on going it solo, this is NOT the kayak for you. Likely even if you’re a stronger man. You need two people to really do it right, period. It’s too unwieldy for a single person to handle in my opinion. The center of gravity on this kayak is higher than most sit on tops. Now, you get the comfort of that awesome adjustable seat back, but that does make it less stable than an average kayak. Something to consider if you’re less experienced and afraid to tip your boat. It’s a trade off, but for what I wanted this for, longer trips in the boat, I was okay to sacrifice a little stability. This isn’t the fastest kayak in the world. My partner in his sit in was doing laps around me. That’s okay, I wasn’t after speed. I wanted comfort and weight capacity. If you do want speed and you don’t want to get wet, this also might not be the boat for you. Obviously the self bailing feature is awesome, and it’s why I prefer sit on top kayaks to sit ins. In my opinion, if you’re afraid to get wet, kayaking is the wrong hobby for you. And if you tip your boat, it’s a lot more difficult to get out from underneath if you panic with a sit in. (as an aside, PLEASE invest in a good life jacket specifically designed for paddling, your safety is priceless) However, some of the scupper holes aren’t in totally obvious places, like under the seat, so if you’re planning to put scupper plugs in to stay dry-er, be mindful of that. Basically the only major flaw I wasn’t anticipating of this boat in how pathetic their ‘dry bag storage area’ is. I wouldn’t trust that to not take on water. It’s also tiny. If you plan on taking anything on with you, I highly recommend getting your own dry bags, preferably ones that come with straps that can get clipped to the cargo hold area. Also, a *floating* dry phone case. My phone is one thing I don’t want to take chances with. The only other thing I would change about this in an ideal world is price, but especially with kayaks, you get what you pay for. And in terms of quality and aesthetics, this baby delivers, big time. Overall, totally happy with my purchase. This boat has everything I really wanted out of a watercraft.

I’ve been told by Amazon I need to edit my review so that it can be posted. My previous review was vetoed because it discussed delivery. So I will not discuss delivery. I will discuss how great my kayak which was sold by Amazon would be if I in fact had it. I hear it’s the best recreational kayak of its size. I hear it tracks well in spite of only being 9.5 feet long. I hear it’s comfortable and durable. I hear all of that and I look forward to finding it somewhere someday where I can actually get it

This Tribe Kayak is great. We live on the salt marsh in North Florida. This little guy is so Maneuverable, balanced and quick... We use it 11 months a year, when the water is warm. January here in North Florida, our water gets down to 65 degrees so that's a bit cold.. It's up to 72 now so we are on the water! Great construction, perfect size. Arrived in perfect condition. The Prime guys even put them in our garage. Can't ask for more.
