Freedom Hawk pathfinder fishing kayak

Introducing the Freedom Hawk Pathfinder; the next generation of fishing kayaks. Stand, sit, paddle, pole, motor, troll, float; this new kayak is designed to be fished
in all water conditions from open water ocean fishing to coastal flats, lakes, rivers and ponds.
Featuring the same patented outrigger as the Freedom 12 Series, this kayak features three outrigger positions for unmatched stability and efficiency of movement.


It paddles like a conventional kayak in position one. Position two offers maximum stability for stand-up fishing or landing and releasing large game fish. The third
position (in-line) offers a blend of efficiency and stability for rough water conditions, poling, or motoring.


With a maximum capacity of 450 lbs and internal and external storage, you can bring all your gear (tackle, decoys, dive or photography) for a full day on the water. This kayak comes standard with inserts for an optional motor mount and a custom designed recess for your battery case, making the transition from paddling to motoring seamless. At 14 feet 2 inches in length, this boat features maximum performance for longer paddling trips. The added freeboard and upswept bow make this boat dry in open water lake and sea conditions. You can add the optional Elite Angler Seat, the most comfortable kayak seat on the market, for extra all-day comfort. If you prefer to sit or stand, this kayak is the ultimate fish catching machine.

With my Freedom Hawks, I use the technique shown in the video linked below to get into and out of them. It makes the launching a lot easier than other kayaks. Getting out is a simple reverse with or without their bows resting on the launch ramp.

So what does it look like inline?

At 80 lbs. and it's weird configuration, does this paddle like a barge?

Is it a project getting into the water?
