Inflatable Kayak Buying Guide

An inflatable kayak is a convenient and fun way to be able to get out and enjoy the water for any person of any age. If you are looking into purchasing an inflatable then there are five key things to watch for while doing your research.

1. The Weight and Dimensions of the Kayak Typically the longer and slimmer the kayak, the less stable it will be but the faster it will paddle. Weight could be an issue if you plan to take your kayak traveling or if you need to be able to lift it and transport it all on your own.

2. The Load Capacity and Cargo Capacity of the Kayak The amount of weight a kayak can hold can vary greatly depending on the model. Take special note of how much the load capacity is. This is especially important if you are a larger person or if you plan to go on multi-day excursions where you will need to load up with a lot of gear.

3. The Quality of the Material Most inflatable kayaks are constructed with PVC material which tends to be very durable and rugged. Usually the cheaper the price of the kayak the less durable it will be (with some exceptions). The durability may be an issue for you if you plan to do any whitewater kayaking or use your kayak heavily. Watch for a high denier count as well as for reviews from other kayakers. This tends to be a good way to get an idea of the durability of your inflatable kayak.

4. Performance It is not fun to paddle a kayak that only goes from side to side and barely moves. Tracking and performance are important to an enjoyable kayaking experience. Watch for kayaks that use a skeg or a rudder as these will usually provide a better performance than those others. Once again read the reviews to see what others have said.

5. Set-Up Time With an inflatable set-up time is important. I paddle the Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame inflatable kayak which has a set-up time of about six minutes. I actually find that I get on the water faster with my inflatable than I ever did with my old hard-shell kayak which would take forever to untie from the roof of the car and transport to the water. Quick set-up time is ideal and means far less work.

There are many different types of kayaks to choose from and you will need to decide what type of kayaking you will be doing most. For example either whitewater kayaking, flat water kayaking or ocean kayaking. Knowing what you will use it for most will help you to make a better decision as to which models to begin researching first.

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.
