OEX does great work. Nice and clean. I have to admit that I felt blood leaving my head and rushing to my legs, when I first saw the camo pattern. I think my visicarbon light and flag will help make my camo yak more visible....lol

The only thing I noticed is the dark brown kinda reminds me of the sea dogs. Hopefully I won't be shark bait out there.

I don't know how that icon got there. I hate using iPhones for web stuff.

I don't know what the bottom of the kayak looks like but how do you clean out the water pump if it gets plugged while you're on the water?

This is one of the reasons for getting the 2013 instead of the blem. I am a bigger guy and heard that water could come into the rear hatch. I have lost over 70 pounds but is is nice to know that there won't be an issue. I also like the built in transducer mount too.

Looks great man now all you need to do is get on the water. Whens the maiden voyage?

Wiring is all finished up and ready to go for you!

As for the pump getting clogged, It is a recessed fitting with a screen. Clogging isnt usually and issue unless you get into some heavy cut up eel grass or similar. Everything on this si same as a Stealth.

That is a good question. I may have to bring a brush with a very long handle. Is this a common problem with bait tank set ups?

Is the battery within reach? Would reversing the flow on the pump work?

When these start showing up at the blem sales I'm getting one! I have 2 of the 2012 models and there great but... that flat hatch in the back is a great feature. Would help with my problem of where to safely put this huge expensive lithium battery I have besides the in bait tank hatch where I need to put bait.

Might be a stupid question but im new to the whole kayak thing, why do you need a bildge pump? Like how does there get to be "that" much water in your yak and isnt there a drain whole on one end so you can just like tip it an drain any water? Or is this used for out on the water?

That pump is for the bait tank.
