Perception Tribe 13.5 Sit on Top Tandem Kayak for All-Around Fun Large Rear Storage with Tie Downs

Awesome kayak love the upgraded seats and storage I’m quite tall over 6 feet 5 inches and this fits me great never had an issues seat is comfortable enough to kayak for long periods of time while also being light enough to carry with 2 people easily the kayak also has been super stable as iv rode through medium sized waves with no problems.

This tandem kayak is great! The new seats for the 2020 model are definitely an upgrade from the previous year model. It’s sturdy and well built. We also bought (separately) the scupper plugs so we had them to plug the holes if needed when on the water. There is room for 1-2 small children but there is no true seat them so they are basically sitting by your feet. We bought some foam pads for our daughter (6 y.o.) to sit on when we went out on the river. I’m probably 235 lbs, my wife is ~140 lbs, and my daughter is about 50 lbs. The kayak was stable on the water and we had a great time. The only thing missing would have been some kind of true seat for a kid, even if it was an add-on you had to buy separately that could snap in place or something similar. Definitely recommend it. One thing to keep in mind is that this tandem kayak is huge, and due to its length/weight i would definitely recommend using two people when you’re moving it. Enjoy!

I conducted extensive research before selecting a kayak. My needs are very simple, for I will be on a calm river with my dog. But I have not kayaked in many years. It was extremely easy to order, and I received a month's notice from the purchase date for delivery. To my surprise, within a week or so, I got a call to schedule my delivery. I got my on a Sunday, and that was perfect with my work schedule. I was concerned about the shipment, given that it was such a large object and that it might get damaged. It came in perfect condition as advertised. Delivery people were super friendly. Please be advised that it does not come with scupper plugs. This does not bother me, just a heads up. I am happy with the ease of purchase and delivery. Came as ordered, with no damage, and I look forward to new adventures with my dog!

My Husband and I love this tandem! Very sturdy, hasn't flipped even when we jump out into the lake and then pull ourselves back in. Very good in rough waters when it's windy/Stormy. A little heavy to lift weighing in at 80lbs, but with two of us it's not that bad. Plenty of room for two coolers, our ladder and room for one more small person cause there's a third seat in the middle. Dry bags stay dry and cup holders hold regular cans good.

This is an excellent tandem kayak that is easy to paddle and tracks well. We used it on a lake and it rode well in the boat wakes and we never felt like we'd flip. It's big, it's heavy and loading it onto our truck rack is a chore. There are some areas for improvement. First off, the side handles are not center on the kayak so when it's being carried there is more weight towards the back. The storage holes are too small for my smallest dry bag. It will fit but it's a tight fit. I wish the holes were 5-6 inches. The foot rests are too narrow for my feet and should be 1/2 to an inch wider. The "cupholders" are way too shallow and a bottle of water just tips over. And finally, I wish the stern had maybe a 4 inch square flat spot so when standing up the kayak for loading/unloading it won't be so tippy standing on end. Those are minor issues and we really enjoy paddling on the lake. The delivery was fine and there was no damage to this monster boat. The delivery guy even looked over the kayak to make sure there was no damage. Overall, I recommend this tandem kayak even with the minor annoyances.

Seats are very comfortable and storage is good. Paddles well on the Ohio River.

Awsome !I love this , delivered early and everything just as it should be . No scratches , well wrapped in cardboard and heavy plastic . Planning on taking it with us in a toy hauler around our wonderful country . Yes it is big , but perfect for 2 people to share . Plenty of room for both plus poles and cooler . Back of seats down for traveling and storing . Pull up seats and adjust to what you like for back support . I will send more photos once I get it on the lake this weekend with more information . I’m setting my single kayaks aside and can’t wait to get this big boy on the water .

Very stable and fast. Easy to maneuver. Tried to flip to test stability and can’t flip in the lake. Very roomy with great features such as 2 dry boxes in haul. A place to put 2 ram mounts for cameras, etc. one on right side back and one in front center floor. Handles could be moved closer to center. Only downside heavy when you’re by your self at 80 plus pounds. But very solid and well built.
