nice, how much for this sweet ride?

GR6RR · 04-13-2012, 03:55 PM

looks really nice. never seen one of these before

CheapPelican · 04-13-2012, 04:27 PM

Is this a prototype or production model? Did it gain any weight?

Iceman · 04-13-2012, 04:43 PM

4.4 is listed as 44 pounds. This model is the F&D with the rec hatch behind, flush mount rod holders and round hatch forward. I weighed this one with the seat on 54#.

Production has just started. I got 2 to fill orders and this one today.

14'6" long 27" wide MSRP on the F&D is $831

Very nice looking yak. That bow is going to be even more "fun" in a surf luanch than my old Xtreme. Mike

That camo job is so sick! Too bad nobody will see you on the water... Still love it though. Beats the hell out of the desert camo.

Mr. Adventure · 04-14-2012, 04:29 PM
