https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV_LeK0cylY Go to about the 2:30 mark, looks fun but you can tell it's not steering great either. I can see where a boat with more of a rocker design would handle that better, but still not too bad. Thanks for all of your help. |
Since we are on the kayak buying subject does anybody has the name and number for the man in Lebanon where good brand kayaks are sold, for all the good things everybody has said about hook 1 I had a very bad experience at hook 1 that spanned 3 months and involved 3 calls and one 3 hr round trip there and still came out empty handed so im ready to take my bussiness somewhere else, if anyone has this info I would appreciate if they can share it,

Batteries Plus on Nolensville Pike |
The Coosa was my second kayak. I used the Ride 115 on an 11 day trip to Louisiana, Texas, and back around Tennessee, and have currently been in the Ride 135 since that trip.
I have taken the Ride 135 down 2 class 3's, it was hairy, but doable. Most of the guys in river kayaks took the safe routes and went around, I just shot them. The roughest part was the 3' wall of water that hit me in the chest, nearly knocked the wind out of me, and the entire cockpit filled with water and made the boat every tippy for a few seconds until the water drained out the scupper holes. I feel that the Ride 135 would suit me on overnight trips with gear if needed but a hybrid style like an Ultimate, or Commander would be better suited. The Ride 115 is a great boat, but lack of tankwell, and speed is an issue for me. I know you're probably thinking why are you concerned with speed in a kayak? Well I like paddling efficient kayaks, where I can cover as much water as possible in a small amount of time. Paddling the Ride 115 more than a mile and a half or two consistently without a break was exhausting. Like said earlier the tankwell is small, but adequate for most. Not me, I fill the tankwell of the Ride 135 up and sometimes feel like I need more room. The Coosa, the tankwell is small, smaller than the Ride 115 tankwell, it's tippy "the only kayak I have ever fell out of". It's slow, I know it's not meant to be a fast kayak, but I like speed relative to kayak. If you are on any pond or lake and have any sort of wind you are spinning, unless you tie a piece of rope to the rear and let it drag in the water. I think I got that tip from Bfish. |

Here is a how to and some pics (not mine and more complicated than mine. I just go chain to leash with a zigzag cleat to tie off). http://jacksonkayak.com/blog/2012/09...chain-install/ |
