Convenient for apartment storage |
|
No space for storing a rigid kayak in oceanfront apartment complex in San Juan, PR. Inflatable option does the trick. Good for ocean use although a little tight for two adults. Maybe a sit-on-top would be better. Rolls up nicely and not that heavy. |

This is fun |

This is a fun boat to go out on the lake with. I do recommend the STEARNS - SEVYLOR SKEG FOR TAHITIS, FIJI AND BALI MODELS. Its a rooter that you must have or you will not be able to go straight. Its good for two people. Its big for one person. |

Great Value |
|
I have taken the two that I own out half a dozen times now, and the inflation is easy, boat handles as well as expected, and it is pretty durable. It does not come with paddles, but these, X-Treme Deluxe 84in Kayak Paddle, are great paddles to use with it. |

Great ride! Great deal! Get the skeg!!! |
My fiance and I purchased this boat last summer. We live very close to a river, so we just dropped in by our house. We paddled all we wanted and pulled out about 10 miles down in a riverside park, deflated the boat, then called a cab and threw it in the trunk to go home. Perfect! When deflated, if you get a couple of nylon straps, it can roll up to about the size of a medium duffle bag for transport.
I did one run without the skeg (not included) and one with. Don't skip the skeg. It made a HUGE difference in the handling.
I've had several canoes over the years. The pain was trying to transport, portage, and get home on my own. This is a perfect solution.
I'm 5'8" and my fiance is 6'5". We were a bit cramped when sitting in the boat, so I'd recommend that you get 2 boats for 2 adults. |

good for me |
I recently purchased one of these from another vender. I have no prior experience with kayaks and limited experience with boats of any kind. I needed a small inexpensive boat to rescue stranded R/C boats (see my other reviews) that was capable of handing my 220+ lbs with some margin to go two up if desired. I also purchased a Sevylor paddle, skeg, and large foot pump at the same time. I inflated the kayak with the foot pump in about 20 minutes including installing the skeg. I am pleased with the initial quality and price of this kayak. The vender I got mine from sold the drab green one for the same price as the banana yellow one so I opted for the drab green.
I had planned a controlled, methodical initial sea trial with the kayak due to my lack of experience, but stuff happens. One of my RC boats got stuck in a morass of weeds at a local lake and I had to rush back home and get the kayak. I loaded the inflated kayak in the back of my Ranger and off I went. The kayak was easy to load and unload and once in the water (with PFD on) I quickly figured out how to propel and maneuver the kayak well enough to rescue my R/C boat. The seats are surprisingly comfortable (at least for the short time I was in the water). The low profile of the sides makes this craft ideal for what I needed it for (fetching things out of the water). The kayak was easily removed from the water and loaded back in the Ranger.
