Return to Discussionsi have one a little two seat Sevylor they aren't bad and was my first kayak ( get the attachable fin or you will spin around in circles) i prefer my old town vapor but if i went on a road trip a inflatable on would be nice to have along without my vapor being strapped to the roof .
i had a battery operated pump i plugged into car cigarette lighter plug and even a large hand pump that worked great. i am just amazed at how far they have come and beginner one are actually pretty cheap and go up from there. getting out on the water is a lot cheaper and convenient than it use to be.
Rented them at the Nantahala River and loved it. They called them funyaks and the good thing was when you went over rocks it took the brunt of the Impact. I've been told they are quite slow on a lake but no experience with one there.
I started out my kayaking with two of Sea Eagle's lower end models. I had fun with them but since they lacked drop-stitch floors they had just enough flex to aggravate my back issues. When I upgraded I chose a rotomolded kayak over a drop stitch inflatable simply because of the fact that inflatables are illegal to use in any park administered by The NY Parks Dept. If finances allowed I'd add something like a Sea Eagle FasTrak or Advanced Elements kayak to my fleet in a heart beat. Well, maybe not in a heart beat cuz a quality inflatable SUP board would likely come first.
I got to try a buddy's Advanced Elements inflatable kayak out on Lake Ontario today. Not a bad little boat but the aluminum back bone kit and drop stitch flooring upgrade would be a must if I were to try paddling one for any length of time.
