Production

Pelican is the industry leader in Twin Sheet Thermoforming (TST), a highly precise process that greatly improves the structural rigidity of the boats by fusing deck and hull under extreme pressure and heat.

• First Layer: Vibrant colors UV resistance improved scratch resistance
• Second Layer: 95% recycled high-density plastic
• Third Layer: Added stiffness and durability

At comparable weight, no other manufacturing process can reproduce the durability, strength, and rigidity Pelican achieves with TST.

Materials

Pelican's proprietary multi-layer material RAM-X is made of exceptionally durable high molecular weight polyethylene (HMWPE). This means less material is needed to produce boats that better resist impacts and breakage.

The result is a harder to break and easier to carry around product.

Hydrodynamics

Our R&D team uses live tests and 3D software to optimize the hydrodynamics efficiency of our different hull types.

This data is use to design products with the best possible stability, maneuverability and speed.

User questions & answers

Question:	Height at folding position
Answer:	Yes. The item I got had a very brittle main body that fractured in many places when dropped from about table or hip height onto a hardwood floor. It was rendered unusable during its first use! If the material selected were tougher this would have been a great bottle - the design is good, the materials for the main body of the bottle are completely inappropriate - or at least were early in 2020.
Question:	Is this compatible with a 2005 Tahoe
Answer:	No
Question:	Do these open up all the way to form a flat area
Answer:	No. What they are showing are the different colors they come in.
Question:	I want to use the J bars on my trailer. The crossbars are 2.5" thick or high and 1.25" wide. Will they fit ok
Answer:	I have used club soda, I know there is a slight difference in the two, with peeled lemons in my bottle without an issue. I do not shake it up or fill it all the way up to the top due to the carbonation. Hope that helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the weight limit
Answer:	Technically the specification states the maximum load as 250 lbs. However, my wife and I exceed that by at least 100 lbs and there didn't seem to be any issues. If you search You Tube for "Travels with Yoly" and then find a video called "Blackwater River - Part 2 - Kayak Trip" you can see it in action.
Question:	what does come with
Answer:	Spoke to the manufacturer, and it no longer comes with a hand pump despite what the manufacturer's box, and amazon ad say.
Question:	Are the seats removeable? Only want it myself for fishing
Answer:	Yes, the seats are completely adjustable and removable. This is a very sturdy little boat as well. We have two and myself, my 12 year old daughter and our Border Collie all ride in one boat together.
Question:	This or intex Challenger? What is the different
Answer:	I own both kayaks and I would rather go with the explore to kayak, the reason is the Explorer - is self bailing has better seats that raise you out of the water in the bottom of the boat has an upturned nose to keep water from splashing you paddles are better quality. I have taken the explorer down a class 3 river the cabarrton river in Idaho with no problems. Take the skeg off if you do rivers, will just cause you problems if you dont, mainly you will loose it. Only use tue skeg in lakes or ponds.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many SKS locks do I need to buy for the rack
Answer:	You will need a 2 pack of the Yakima SKS lock cores to lock the JayLow's to the crossbar.
Question:	Any ideas on how to get a 52 lb. kayak up on the Jaylows by yourself
Answer:	My 16' kayak weighs 56 lbs. I line it up on the side of my car so that the cockpit is between the front and back bars, more or less. I lift the front and "walk" it with my hands until my hands are up over my head, then I lean the front 1/3-1/2 of the kayak against the front jay hook (cockpit out). It helps if the rear end of the boat is in grass or something that doesn't slide. Next I step a couple of steps to the rear of the cockpit and, with one hand grasping the cockpit and the other cradling under the back of the boat, I heave it up onto the rear jayhook. I'm 5'7" (female) and can do this in about 1 minute. I can barely lift the kayak by myself, but doing it 1/2 a boat at a time is super easy.
Question:	Can i please get a detailed answer on how to stop the whistling that these jaylow carriers make? i have a faring already
Answer:	Duct tape over holes on bottom will stop the whistling.
Question:	Will this rack really carry two kayak's? To carry two kayak's do you need additional hardware or straps
Answer:	We have not used these racks for 2 kayaks, we just bought 2 racks. BUT..... We have 4 kayaks and will try it someday. I can see how this rack will work for two, it just needs to be positioned perfectly vertically, instead of leaning back slightly. You will need another set of straps, preferablly two for around the main body and a bow and stern strap. We really like our Jaylow carriers, they are very easy to install and adjust, and very easy to load one kayak onto. You will need two people to put on the second kayak though, because the second kayak won't have the cradle bracket to hold it in place on the back of the bracket.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it free standing
Answer:	The paddle boards I have seen are pretty big. You could use these but I would want to tie them down to the rack so they don't slip off. It would be good for the manufacturer to put on tie downs on the frame so what ever you put on them they are not accidentally knocked off.
Question:	how large is the box that it comes in
Answer:	The arms lay flat. Your 16 inch kayak will fit. Our kayak is about 13 inches deep and we still have plenty more space to adjust away from the ceiling if we needed to. Hope this helps.
Question:	The total width is 94", what is the distance between the 2 support legs? OR, how far does the end of the rack protrude from the legs? Maybe
Answer:	As long as you hit the center of the joist it should handle closer to 150lbs. I have got ~140lbs on them right now.
Question:	are there different size hooks? my perception tribe 13.5 kayak does not fit
Answer:	YES! You can adjust how far apart you place the bars to accommodate the length for an even longer kayak, as long as you have a solid ceiling beam to attach it to. Really, the distance between them is only determined by how far apart the beams in your ceiling are. The weight limit is 150 pounds...75 lbs. per side, so your 55 lb. kayaks will be fine. It's also easy to load and unload the kayaks...no ropes or pulleys, etc., you just stick them up there. I know the photo shows them stored upside down, but we have been storing ours right side up to keep paddles and lifejackets in them too. As I mentioned in my review, the only problem with these is that the hardware that comes with them is not good. My husband went to the hardware store to buy better quality pieces.

User questions & answers

Question:	How difficult is it to paddle with the mounts? We want to use this for both fishing and relaxing in our lake
Answer:	I would suggest buying this motor: http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-12V-Electric-Trolling-Motor/dp/B003659THG/ref=sr_1_2?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1434470976&sr=1-2&keywords=sevylor+trolling+motor&pebp=1434470982639&perid=1HEN9B9D2FYKHTN7WSHMIt fits on the boat with no need for a mount.
Question:	does it come with paddles and pump
Answer:	I have a trolling motor setup that I use on my Colorado kayak. I know that Sevylor sells a trolling motor and battery that fits this boat's "trolling motor mount" but it is a very small motor and mount with not much power and the battery won't last very long. This boat can hold up to 470lbs and is designed to be fished and hunted in all day. A small motor that only runs for an hour isn't what I was looking for. So I ended up purchasing a Minn Kota Endura 30lb thrust trolling motor and a 100amphour group 27 AGM battery. (Both from amazon) This motor and battery is not designed for an inflatable kayak so if you wanted to go this route, you'd have to build your own mount, which is what I did. You may also be able to purchase a motor mount that would work. A few notes that I learned through this process:1) The battery is what matters most. It weighs the most (mine is almost 60lbs which takes away from my boats weight capacity), it cost the most and it determines how long you can stay out on the water between charges. My battery/motor combination moves this boat at 3-5mph with 2 adults on board at the highest speed on the trolling motor for 8-10hours. That's a 2 day fishing trip. 2) The battery's AMP HOURS determines how many amps the motor can draw over so many hours. For instance... The minn Kota Endura 30 has an amp draw of 10-13amps per hour of running. My 100amp hour battery supplies that 10-13 amps each hour for 8-10 hours before I need to recharge. Had I bought a 200amp hour battery theoretically I should be able to go twice as long between recharges. 3) You can buy a cheap automotive battery for $99 but you should expect to replace it every year and I wouldn't rely on one in an inflatable. Or you can buy an AGM battery which is higher quality, will last 5-10 years with proper maintenance, and is less likely to fail on you when you need it. If piece of mind and time on the water is your primary concern then go with an AGM of at least 80amphours. If cost is your factor then go with an everstart deep cycle. 4) The weight of the trolling motor must be offset. If you just hang a 17lb motor off the side of your boat, it's going to ride funny in the water dipping down on the motor side. My solution was to build an anchor holder and winch on the opposite side of my motor mount which balanced the weight of the trolling motor on the other side. I have seen a motor mount with a "ballast" (heavy piece on metal) to offset the motor weight. This particular mount was metal and fit into the fishing pole holders on the back of the boat. 5) You need the boat, motor, mount, battery, power center (battery box), and a good battery charger. My final thoughts: I love this boat. I have been fishing in the California Sierras from Pinecrest to Shasta and it is a great boat and a lot of fun to customize and enjoy. I like it so much I recently bought a second boat for friends and family who visit. It's a fantastic kayak as it is but it's even more fun with a nice powerful motor/battery pushing it. My girlfriend and I call it the Trout-slayer. It's a silent stalker and the fish don't even know you're there.
Question:	can I firmly set up 'Coleman Motor Mount' with this
Answer:	Thanks for your interest in our products. Our bodies absorb sound, so while no hearing protection can block out all noise, when worn according to directions, these earplugs will provide 22 decibels of noise reduction, bringing noise down to a lower, more tolerable level. So, in short, yes they will help, but no, nothing will likely block out ALL the noise you are trying to block out. Please contact us if we can help further. Thanks!
Question:	Does anyone have a trolling motor attached to this? How easy is it to setup
Answer:	Thank you for your interest in our products. Yes, Mack’s Pillow Soft Moldable Silicone Putty Earplugs are moldable and we provide plenty of material to accommodate larger ear canals. They simply mold to your outer ear canals (instead of going down into the ear canal) and provide a very comfortable, custom fit. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact us at [email protected]. Thanks!

Product description

Advanced Elements Advanced Frame Inflatable Kayak - The Advanced Frame is a combination of the best of folding frame kayaks and inflatable kayaks. The Advanced Frame kayak's bow slices through water like a knife and tracks just as well as any hard shell kayak. Built-in aluminum ribs help define the bow and stern and improve maneuverability greatly. The stern also acts as a skeg, further increasing the kayak's tracking performance. The Advanced Frame IK uses 3 layers of extremely durable materials to resist the chance of puncture. The heavy-duty 30-gauge PVC main chamber is protected by a high density polyurethane-coated polyester inner cover and a tough PVC Tarpaulin with 1000 Denier Polyester outer layer. A double layer of material on the bow and stern, and welded-on landing plates increase protection when beaching the kayak. There is plenty of on-board storage room for extended trips in this kayak as well. The breathable foam mesh back support of the padded seat sets you up for all day paddling comfort. The best part is that the Advanced Frame sets up in just a few minutes and is compact enough to take along on a weekend adventure. Keep it in the trunk of your car, and paddle whenever you want. Or pack it into a remote wilderness area and paddle where no one has paddled before. Simply inflate with a pump and hit the water in minutes. The included carry duffel bag makes storing and transporting easy. With the looks and paddle-ability of a rigid hard shell kayak with the portability of an inflatable, the Advanced Frame IK has it all!

User questions & answers

Question:	I have one of these, but was wondering if anyone has gone fishing in it? Was it difficult
Answer:	I bought the backbone and it is VERY helpful for rough seas. If you are in flat water you don't need it but you do for any ocean kayaking.
Question:	are these tested before shipping
Answer:	Took Rosebud out of Channel Islands Harbor around the breaker, Santa Cruz Island Prisoners Cove, and out of Ventura Harbor, California. Responds to wind, use that to your advantage - don't go out WITH the wind, go out against the wind and have an easy ride back instead of coasting out, get exhausted and have to fight your way back. ALWAYS use a paddle leash. I used 6' light but strong marine line with a bowline tied to paddle and to a ring that has the elastic. If you don't trust your knot tying, get a paddle leash with the hardware.
Question:	does it come with the backbone
Answer:	Honestly I did not measure while it was blown up. For fishing it is only good for two people. For KayakING fine for three. Seat do move . Found it good for the money.
Question:	How does it handle in open waters? I want to use it to go out in the harbor
Answer:	This is an inflatable kayak that is not meant to fend off crocodile bites. No kayak will stand up to a shark if he has his mind set on eating you...even a hard shell.
