Kayak fishing hype is everywhere, but the truth has a value of its own, since it can be demonstrated and proven in real life:
Kayak stability without comfort and safety is a misnomer, and so is kayak fishing standing and stand up paddling without comfort and safety.
It is not reasonable to expect a paddler or angler to rise up from the L position to a standing position, and it is reckless to expect that they’ll sit down from a standing position in case they lose balance, which always happens when you stand up in or on top a kayak.
This is where the 14 inches high W kayak saddle shines…
I’ve been watching w videos for years, and I’m still amazed. Well done!

The only thing that comes close to this boat is its older sister the w300
borax,
The basic idea with the W500 was to offer a W kayak that’s a ‘get in and paddle boat’, and does not require fro new users to go through a learning curve, like the W300 did.

Did I detect a smile on the face of a certain genius marine designer? Very well done sir, proof postive this boat just plain works. It is a true stand alone anglers craft with no competition anywhere in the paddle craft market.
Who’s the guy performing in this movie
- is he a professional stuntman?
That guy is me:
49 year old, 6 ft tall, 200 lbs, non-athletic, and lacking any special sporting background or unusual capabilities.
Just a regular, middle aged guy.
