Really liked your review. Very enlightening and honest. It's not easy to admit to not liking things when you've spent over $1400. I've been considering buying this one but after seeing the glue leakage I'm concerned about the longevity. The yellow stuff you are seeing is contact cement. Bad fit and finish can be an indicator of sloppy work elsewhere. This sloppy work might have something to do with shortage of help at the factory. I noticed they have been out of many of their products lately- including this model and still don't have the peddle drives available. Thanks for the heads up!!😎

Great review. I particularly appreciated the information about the fit-n-finish aspects. Those are important with something that costs as much as these kayaks do. Thanks for sharing.

Great review. Thank you for showing the fit and finish issues. I agree with you. Not as premium as they advertise. I just bought a Zeppelin and this makes me nervous. Thanks again. Well done.

I would love to see a comparison review between this one and the Zeppelin. I love both designs but it's hard to choose between the 2 models.

Thanks for this review. I've just started my research & it's been very helpful. Quality at this price point is incredibly important. Have you contacted Bote about the finishing issues? Curious about their customer service.

Update: I ended up returning this and got my money back. Great customer service but I would not buy it again unless they dropped the price down to sub 1k.

Any update on this? How has it been after using it for a year? Has it held up? Would you buy it again?

I wonder if it works ok without the rear deck. Anyway it's not jewelry; it just gathers patina. Slopover of glue is not a problem if it means they didn't skimp on seam adhesive. The seams may last a couple or a dozen years, and that will count far more than color or cosmetics.

Great review, I wanted to ask if it comes with that platform in the back of the seat. I went to the web suit and is not mentioned in the “include” part
