“Why would you buy a kayak from BCF that is not even close to this quality or having no where near the length or accessories that this monster does. Well done guys you have been a pleasure to deal with thanks. The delivery guy you use is great to excellent communication.”
“PLenty of storage for all my gear (tackle boxes, esky, bait well).
Very sturdy build quality - high quality finishings that make me think it will last for many years.
Quick to pick up pace, I can use it as my exercise kayak as well as my fishing kayak.
Very happy, as described online.”
“My second Kayak from Bay Sports. Hamish and the crew are fantastic to deal with. Actually respond to you when you text or call.
The 4.3 Fishing is just the job for me. As a "late 60's paddler" the length, beam and resultant stability are perfect for me.
Its heavy, so reckon you need the dolly wheels, but I launch off my boat. Nice to paddle, and with little effort, because of length, and surprisingly, or maybe because of weight, it clips along. Once going, the foot steering and fine bow entry make maintaining a nice course and progress "easy".
The yak is well set up for fishing, but I don't do much fishing from it, My use is fitness training and exploring. The seating position, even without the elevated "fishing chair" that you can buy, is perfect for a uninterrupted stroke, without hitting the sides of the kayak during catch and recovery. I am about 180cm (5'10").
This one is good for me. I don't spend 50% of my time in the water. In fact, I haven't been for an "involuntary/unplanned" swim off this 4.3 yet! But its easy to get back on, without drawing blood from sharp fittings.
For the price, I reckon its a pretty good production kayak.
I am a genuine owner. Not connected in any way with the dealer or supplier, except giving them money to buy the kayaks. Hamish asked me for a review.”
“After doing a lot of research and some kayaks selling for up to $3000 on other sites, this truly is value for money.
It could do with more rod holders but again I knew exactly what I was getting for the quality of the product and the price I was paying. I am 196cm and I fit very comfortably, the kayak is very buoyant but still quite fast. Bay Sports were great to deal with and answered all my questions via online chat, and they were very accommodating with postage.”
