Ok a jarhead question:)
What do you mean by factor seconds?

that means "blems" or blemished/scuffed decal kayaks. sometimes its some discoloration, sometimes a damaged, but still functioning kayak. i got my extreme as a blem, it has "x-factor" printed on it!

How early should i get there? how long do the lines usually get?

Jzo

For deals like that, which I believe only happens once a year. Saving mega buck in this economy, first come first serve, early as possible. :)

From what i have seen, they have them every few months or so.

Iceman

09-15-2010, 11:47 AM

This is only the second time we have done this......I would get there before 9am. We should have twice the kayaks we had last time, but almost all sold in the first hour last time.

oh woops. I figured since the last one was in June, it was a every few months. I plan to be there at 8pm. might have to break out the tent?:)

Intrested in the pro 2 tandem's

does it depend on the blem for the price difference's...?

from 299.60 to 411.60...

Iceman

09-16-2010, 06:29 PM

$299 is a basic model with no hatches or rod holders, the $411 is the fish and dive model with 3 hatches and 6 rod holders.

A new guy on here. Dont own a kayak yet but would like to come for the sale. Is it possible to get some info about the the X-factor and the stealth 14 and the extreme. How do they compare to each other in term of comfort, speed/control and how stable are they for a new guy?? I have very little exprience on a kayak but when i did go i had a blast. I would like to use it for fishing and just cruising for fun. Which ones does everyone prefer??? Any help is very appreciated.
would there be anyone at the sale to help out a new guy with a kayak??

Hi, Sasha! Heres a link might help you and afterwards call them. Tell them what you are looking for in a kayak, they will take care of you. They are real nice people over there at OEX. From my experience they are little laid back, :D which is good thing cause I dont like to be pushed into buying something.

Hi guys, Im 5-9 205lb. Not sure where exactly im going to be fishing from. But i guess im closer to Topanga and Malibu so that would be the place. I would also like to use it for just cruising around for fun. As someone who never done it before i cant base anything on my exp..

Go with a stable yak first, get your feet wet, and don't worry about the speed factor of a narrower yak.

You can always upgrade later when you get used to the whole kayak fishing thing...and you will.

Definitely go see Andy, he is the Masta...:sifone:

If I lived closer I would go just to :drool5: over the deals...

is it better to go with the X-factor or the stealth 14. Which one is easier to store the rods in?? All the kayaks might be sold before i make a choice standing there lol. Would like to figure out which one i should go for before i get there. Im not a huge fisherman like some guys/girls.
Oh yea i got a VW camper that i would need to get the kayak on top of. So i guess i got to think of that one as well before i get a kayak.

Good job Andy and thanks for the help!

Aye aye captain the red stealth 14 is my now lol. Good guess which one of all those people was me lol. maybe that look of a lost soul that gave me away lol. Thank you for looking for the red color for me. :you_rock:
Took it to the pool today and let me tell you that thing dont flip untill you got it almost all the way on the side. Practiced getting in and out and fliping it back right side up, in the water. I noticed it did take some water in. The gator hatch has some water inside the hatch cover it self. I got no idea if its normal or not as it my first kayak. Next thing up is launching in the surf and eat some humble pie :D.

Sasha it is normal to get water seeping in when flipped over

@ Central,

I can't see the Stealth because of that big :D on your sons face! Great pick of a yak.

Looks like Andy and crew (OEX) did another fine job. :you_rock::cheers1:

I was luck to pick up a X-13 at the first sale along with my brother getting a X-Factor. This sale looks like there were more yaks to be sold then the first. Lots of fish'n machines.

Looks like Malibu will be coming out with some new products in the near future. :luxhello: Maybe something with a peddle type drive for some semi-hands free fishing? Just a thought!

Anyone know of where I can actually see the Malibu kayaks before I buy?? All of the listed dealers that I have seen back east do not have storefronts but are willing to bring a yak or two to the waters edge to give you a ride but I want to see the whole assortment with add-ons to see what I really want to spend my money on. I can travel reasonable distances (300 miles or less) to look. Thanks.

Iceman,

Good question, I'm a couple states north, & the sport hasn't taken off up here yet (cold water and weather is a big reason) it's very hard to find a good deal. I need time to either get down there myself or get a rep down there for me.

Iceman

08-17-2011, 12:54 PM

Trying to plan one but no word from Malibu yet.
