You guys have been asking for it so here it is! Our first ever Pedal Drive Shootout.
**** HEADS UP ****** It was brought to our attention that we did not have the drive locked into the yak correctly and that is why the pin broke. This is not a reflection of the drive, more of our inexperience with the it. It's our intention to give unbiased reviews based on real world experiences and this did not accurately portray the drive. We will be doing a revised review of the PA with Bryan from Headwaters in Redding where we can rely on his expertise on the boats.
We picked what we felt are our most asked about boats and put them head to head to see where they each stacked up. We rated them on Speed, Maneuverability, Ergonomics, Fishability, and fit and finish.
All these boats were great options, and for each has their area of expertise. Please take this review for what it is, a simple afternoon on the water with three buddies who love to fish playing in boats.
Your option may vary and we encourage you to share it in the comments. Thanks for watching and happy paddlin!

You're reviews are great man! I can't get over the honesty in the videos. If one lacks a feature the other one has, you don't try to down play. You call like it is.

Hello Fellow Fisherman, You guys hit the nail on the head with this show. For me, the timing was perfect, as I am in full shopping mode right here, right now. I could not have asked for a better demonstration of terrific products. I am a former kayak man, I had a Field & Stream Tallon 12, non-drive system kayak. I motorized it with a Minn-Kota but when it came to adding the marine battery the yak became too unstable. After flipping it twice (never again) I built an excellent outrigger pontoon system that could not have worked better. I could have jogged around it with no loss of balance or stability.

Great timing! Was really wanting to see a comparison of different models, although there are some others I was checking out this covered the majority. Clicked the sub and 👍

Content like this is what makes a brand name, become a trusted brand name over night to people who watch it. Awesome review

@mnpatriot557 3 года назад

Total newbie here and found you guys, appreciate all the details. MN has a lot of water access and finally looking to prepare for some fun for myself!

You really need to have a little awareness that the Mirage drive is seated correctly. Good rule of thumb: If the mechanism wobbles, something is not seated right.

I am in the market for a yak. Your vids help a LOT. So far, the Hobie is at the top of my list, simply because I fish a LOT of weed choked water, a lot of flooded woodlands where trees, logs and stumps may only be just a few inches below the surface, and places where very shallow sandbars separate deeper holes. Being able to easily fold the fins flat against the hull is a KEY issue for me

I really like tbe big wells and the intuitive drive system on that Titan. I've been wanting a native since the old slayer. It just looks like the most fishable boat to me.

@greghammett7894 6 лет назад

You guys are awesome! Thanks for the review! The weight of these boats scares the hell out of me. I'd love to see a review of the Titan Slayer and other lighter pedal drive yaks. Thanks so much for all you do! Really helpful

@GregBlanchardFishing 6 лет назад

Awesome review guys! Would definitely like to see more boat comparisons with the three of you!

Thank goodness someone has done this. I have two mirage drive Hobies.

@user-gk9ie8yd3b 3 года назад

This content is really good... the picture quality is good, the kayak explanation is good... the fishing is also good... especially because the RU-vid translation is also good.

I like the pro angler14 so much I purchased two! And my wife loves her Hobie i11 we really enjoy being able to pack it up in its own custom travel case, so we can take it with us on vacations!

@dirtfishingdad_2_34 6 лет назад

Thank you for the review. This is exactly what I needed to decide which kayaks to demo.

@LOSTXPLAYGUN 5 лет назад

I like the Hobie and the Jackson. The drive in the Native looked huge imo and I do not like the fact it doesn't have a break away.

Enjoyable video. In SW Florida, my experience as an owner of a Hobie Outback { 2007 Model} years ago was the occasional damage to the Mirage drive fins and even the supporting bars when hitting submerged obstructions. Cloudy water is fairly common in the Ten Thousand Islands, so contacting submerged obstructions is practically inevitable. I was hoping that the demo would show the Mirage Drive contacting the submerged log when underway and see if any damage would occur. I know that they mention the drive is fragile, but I'm curious to know if this is still a "common" problem in the newer generation 180 Mirage Drive. The other two boats actually struck the submerged log with no damage. This issue and the hull slap convinced me to sell. Yes, resale value was nice!
