Good on JimmyZ for stepping up!. He has the foresight to know that a company that won't stand behind its product won't last long in the marketplace.


I won't now or ever tolerate even one drop of water in my kayak. If there is a drop in there after my use I will find where its coming from and eliminate. Water does not belong in the bilge of a kayak.

Btw, I think you meant "pot shots" not poop shots!

Water leaking in the kayak isn't always a bad thing. When I first gooped my transducer inside my yak and took it out for a test run, it was not working properly and displaying all sorts of wierdness. Then then some water leaked in through the hatch and filled up the air bubbles in the goop and fixed the signal, a perfect wet mount transducer

Did I say Poop shots? OOPS.

Right is right, and the way I see Feelfree going, it's not right.

you know, it still could be the "driest hatch out there". what front hatch out there keeps 100% of the water out? maybe Cobra with their flush hatches and 4-6 latches but any other tub and lid style hatch will leak.
hobies, malibus, ocean kayaks... they all do.

and fyi, some people ADD water to the hull.. gives a better FF reading
