ghost who is designed to handle tight quarters like rivers and streams adventure awaits with the sea ghost 1:10 the new lure 11-5 v2 is an update to our flagship fishing kayak in the lure series built from the ground up to be stable maneuverable and offer flexibility and comfort in a variety of applications it also comes in two different platforms the base platform which we'll take a look at here and the overdrive ready platform that comes rigged for the overdrive system giving you access to pedal and motor power and adds a rudder so we're looking at the 11 v v2 here in desert camo and the first thing you're gonna notice mold it and handle really great option for carrying the boat around but what I really like about this is it gives you a versatile spot to tie the boat down when you're transporting to and from the lake you've got some flush spots here on the bow as well from mounting accessories and you've got a large lockable storage well that gives you access to the inside of the boat and just gives you an opportunity to put a large amount of gear in here maybe if you're gonna be out on the water for a long period of time and the first difference that you're going to notice from the previous lure is we've got rod tip protection now here mounted in the front just a great opportunity to be able to throw a rod in there if you're coming into a into a dock or something and you don't want your rod to get caught it's also worth noting the hull design in the lure series as well it's based on our feel free try hull design which is a good blend between stability and speed and can help aid in tracking for our fishing kayaks moving back we've got the unit rack here mounted on the side and these are great for just utilizing accessory mount plates for putting rod holders or cellphones or any kind of electronics really anything that you need to kind of attach to the boat you've got adjustable foot pegs here so you can get comfortable in there and you've got the removable sonar pod what's really nice about the removable sonar pod is that if you're not going to run a fish finder or electronics it's just extra storage but if you do decide my own a fish finder in here you don't have to drill into the bottom of the boat to mount your transducer you just pull out the sonar pod mount your transducer here you put all your wires and accessories inside here you run a couple cables outside mount your fish finder on top and you're good to go and when you're transporting to and from the lake the whole unit with the transducer and everything can come right out of the boat and you can stick it in the back of your car truck for safekeeping moving back we've got the stand up assist leash which just helps you get in and out of the seat a little bit easier we've got our padded standing platform here which just keeps it a little bit more comfortable if you're standing up on the water all day these boats are known for being very very stable and so having a little bit more mobility in the cockpit is certainly helpful you've got scupper holes all throughout as well just to help everything drain on the sides here you've got paddle parks to keep your paddle out of the way while you're fishing and then of course we've got the gravity seat and the gravity seat is just really amazing it's comfortable it's really soft and cushioned it's breathable it's got some pockets on either side to kind of catch all of your accessories and of course it's adjustable so you can lower it all the way down when you're paddling just to get a little bit more power out of your paddle or you can raise it up and get a little bit more visibility while you're sitting there fishing we've got some bungees on either side of the seat as well for throwing some tackle trays or to just kind of keep a couple of things close at hand and moving back you're gonna see another a difference in the v2 and that's we've removed the cup holders back here it just gives a little bit more space throughout the boat we've got two flush mounted rod holders with leashes you've got a large wide open tank well as well for crate bags or coolers really anything that you need to keep back here you've got straps to kind of strap your crate bag down bungees again well just kind of keep everything back here secure you'll see some more unit rack rail as well you've got another handle back here so another thing you're gonna notice in the lure series is what we call rudder ready so we've got all these little notches back here where the boat is already pre-wired out internally to have rudder installed so you can install a beaver tail rotor back here we're on the cables install your hand control on your hell even you're all set and underneath you've got feel fries patented wheel in the keel a super super helpful feature that just helps you get the boat from your car to the water without having to drag it around or have your buddy help yet the tarpon series of kayaks are revered as the crafts that pioneered the sport of kayak fishing now you can experience the legend redefine with the all-new tarpon 130 ex maintaining the performance heritage of a quick yet stable haul the
