This boat has had more buzz than any kayak I have ever brought in. I took this little video of one so people can see what makes the 2013 different from the Cuda 14's that most of you have seen.

That's awesome Dan. Those are some sweet colors. :smt007 I'm sure you're not going to have them long :smt003
I think those Ram tubes are going to be great not only for the rods but for installing a extended monopod for killer GoPro videos

Hard not to get excited about anything Jackson!  Really interested to know how the forward Ram mounts are affixed.  Are they aftermarket pieces preinstalled or is there a screw in socket in the boat?

They are threaded inserts molded into the kayak that the ram ball screws into.

$1199 for the 12 and $1299 for the 14'. I do have a couple of 2012 14' that need to go for a good price.

Those boats are sweet looking!  :smt007

My only concern, and this may have already been addressed and if so I apologize, is the seat...looks super comfy but like it might not hold up to being pummeled around in the surf if you come in for a rough crash landing?

What's your take on that Dan?

Thanks!!

 :smt006

Sincerely,

Jim
