North Wales Kayak Fishing
MALIBU MINI-X
The boat we have been loaned by kayaks and paddles to test and review is a stunning nancam blue
It’s very easy to carry around.
It weighs just 40 lbs .the build quality is very high.
as you can see from the photos it is a very well set up kayak with hatches .
Both have liners the front round one has a plastic bucket in it and the square one has a vinyl bag in it both are removable.
The hatches are very easy to open and close .
Despite the fact the mini –x is only 9ft long there is plenty of leg room.
It’s a very comfortable seating arrangement and all necessary ancillaries are within easy reach it is a very roomy kayak there is plenty of space to kit it out notice the large centre flat area perfect for mounting fish finders and gps systems on .
The paddle keepers are in a recess so they don’t catch your legs.
And the deep seating position should make this a very stable kayak there are no sharp edges to catch on anything .the carry handles are aligned centrally on both front and rear so it has a good balance to it for carrying
The rear tank well is big enough for a crate in fact it’s quite a deep tank well.
It’s a quick
kayak on the water not at all sluggish as you sometimes find on the
smaller kayaks and a dry ride.
The fittings are good and easy to reach while out on the water no
water came in through the hatches at all.
