Pelican Argo 100X - Recreational Sit in Kayak - Lightweight Patented Ram-X™ Material - Ergoform™ Seating System - 10 ft

This kayak is my first kayak. I was pondering an inflatable one at a third of the price of the Argo, but after reading reviews I decided to buy a quality kayak. The Argo 100 X is that. It is well built but still light. I can easily lift it upon my shoulder and walk about. Plenty of room inside the cockpit. Foot rests are very nice. Legs do not cramp or get tired. Stability, oh my !!! The Argo will not tip over. Believe me we tried. We even ran a paddleboard at full speed into the beam and my Argo stayed upright while my mate went swimming off the paddleboard. He calls my Argo the "Titanic". Unsinkable. Now mind, there are no icebergs around. Well enough is enough. This kayak is fantastic. A great value. The blue fade looks so sweet on the water. See you on the lake.

Husband bought this for my birthday because the first one he bought me is so heavy and long. I love that it fits inside my SUV. Not to heavy. It's not as stable as my heavier kayak but it's easy to paddle and maneuver in tight rivers.

I did a lot of research to find a kayak I could lift and carry by myself, as well as hoist into the back of my car without any help. It is only 36 pounds, and it handles great on the water. I wish the compartment in the front was a true deep storage area instead of a smallish round place to keep a few things, but it's really not a deal breaker for me. The main thing is to be able to get out on the water whenever I want to, without needing to find help lugging around a heavier boat. I have only had it out a few times, and I'm really happy with it. I was out on a windy, choppy day and it was wonderful, very comfortable, and tracks pretty straight. I know a heavier, longer craft would probably tack easier, but this is the kayak I needed for more opportunities for independent paddling on a moment's notice. sits well in the water, the foot pegs are molded into the sides, which may cause problems if they aren't at the right settings for you, but they just happen to be perfect for me to either have my knees up or legs straight. I can't wait to get out there again next week!

I'm loving this kayak! This has been such a fun summer hobby. It's easy to steer, haven't had any problem with getting inside or keeping balance while in the water. Lightweight to lift. Max weight says 275lbs but this is still good for someone plus size by 10lbs. Only setback is you have to buy kayak paddles separately. Get yourself a kayak.

Just took er’ out on her maiden voyage - can’t say enough about this Kayak. I had a larger tandem for years, but my wife never wanted to go, so I downsized to this and just couldn’t be happier. First off, it’s unbelievably light, I can literally just carry it to the lake with ease. It’s got pretty good stability, I’d say it’s intermediate. But it also goes man! On Lake Michigan, the current and waves can be strong, but this sucker cuts like a knife. 100% worth every penny. NOTE: there’s two holes in the back. And no, you’re not “missing” any plugs when this delivers. Those are intentional and help drain runoff. They have no impact on seaworthiness. Enjoy.

Nice kayak, very lightweight. You get what you pay for. No manual included (yes, I know---no one ever sends a paper manual anymore) Tag says "lifetime warranty" and when I called to ask about it I was told it is a 1 year warranty. Boat was filled with plastic shavings that manufacturers didn't bother to remove. See photo.Reason for crap review is that the item required someone to be home and I got spam tagged phone calls from CEVA delivery about setting up a delivery time. When I answered, the calls, no one responds---they left an automated message. NO where on this product or in emails does it say someone has to be home. Why didn't I get an email telling me this?????? Also, they are supposed to CALL 30 minutes before hand----the driver showed up and told me he texted (20 minutes before) but there was no text on my phone. No reason for this. Not happy having to have taken a day off from work for this. I should have had the option for them to leave it without signature.

With about 200 pounds between myself and my dog, I have had no problems on lakes or rivers with tipping over, even with Dottie's sudden movements. Storage is useful. With a cushion it's as comfortable as your favorite chair.

At first, the kayak strap that holds the seat in place broke upon its arrival. It’s was tight. I contacted Pelican and they said they do not sell kayaks. Not sure how that’s true so I contacted Amazon. I got a phone call immediately and accepted a partial refund.Besides that hiccup, I love this kayak! It is easy to carry at another 36lbs. It has a ton of storage space.I want to thank the reviewer who said that it fits INSIDE her CR-V. That’s why I bought it! It fits inside my 2017 Honda CR-V so I didn’t need to buy and install a roof rack. I just put a tarp over the seats (back seats folded forward and front passenger seat folded back with the headrest off).I highly recommend this kayak. It’s stable, great for beginners, has tons of storage space ... I love it!
