Types of Inflatable Kayaks
Although kayaking has been practiced since a very long time, the introduction of various user-friendly equipments has really taken the sport to the masses. Inflatable kayaks have largely been responsible for this surge in the number of kayakers mainly because of the easy portability and storage without compromising on the performance.
Types of Inflatable Kayaks
Like the plastic or fiberglass kayaks, inflatable kayaks too are available in various types. The two main varieties are the inflatable solo kayaks and tandem kayaks. Each of these is further classified in to two more categories - traditional or sit-in kayaks and sit on top kayaks.
1. Traditional Sit-in Inflatable Kayaks: These are the usual type of kayaks with cockpits and paddlers sit inside the cockpit. These are the most commonly used kayaks - be it hard-shell or inflatable. They provide great stability and are equally efficient in flatwater and whitewater conditions.
2. Sit on Top Inflatable Kayaks: As the name suggests, sit on top kayaks are those wherein the paddler sits on top of the kayak instead of sitting in a cockpit. A sit on top kayak does not comprise of a cockpit and paddlers must be prepared to get wet while paddling in a sit on top kayak. There is a gentle depression on top of the kayak where the paddler sits. Paddlers must carry a dry bag to store their gear and prevent it from getting wet while riding in a sit on top kayak.
There are several similarities between the traditional and the sit on top kayaks including the shape of the hull. However, sit on top kayaks are considered as more stable kayaks than the traditional kayaks. Yet another advantage of the sit on top kayaks is that paddlers can easily enter and exit from the kayak.
Sit on top kayaks are mainly used by beginners or for recreational purposes. This is because, these kayaks are more comfortable, have open decks and do not pose any risk of getting trapped in the cockpit in case the kayak capsizes. Thus, paddlers need not practice self-rescue techniques like rolls or wet exits.
More about Inflatable Kayaks
Like the hard shell kayaks, these kayaks are then designed for the specific purpose like sea kayaking, whitewater kayaking or fishing. Thus, paddlers can choose solo or tandem kayak and sit in or sit on top kayak for flatwater or whitewater kayaking.
Fishing kayaks come with few more accessories like fishing rod holders, retractors, game bags etc that help in fishing in any conditions. Sit on top kayaks are usually regarded as more stable kayaks for fishing and are widely used.
If paddlers are keen on whitewater kayaking and fishing, then opting for an inflatable kayak is a very good proposition. This is because inflatable kayaks tide very well over rapids and are equally efficient at fishing. Thus, while planning a long whitewater fishing session, opting for an inflatable kayak is a good idea.
With the natural advantages and so many varieties, an inflatable kayak is an obvious choice for many kayaking enthusiasts.

Kayak $74.88 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A kayak (sometimes generalised as a canoe) is a small humanpowered boat that traditionally has a covered deck, and one or more cockpits, each seating one paddler who strokes a doublebladed paddle. The cockpit is covered by a spraydeck (skirt) that keeps the inside of the boat (and the paddlers lower body) dry. The spraydeck or similar waterproof covering attaches securely to the edges of the cockpit, preventing the entry of water from waves or spray, and making it possible, in some boats, to roll the kayak, capsizing and righting the boat without it filling with water or ejecting the passenger.
