What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The paddle is strong and not too heavy. Will get blown around a little, if windy, but not too terrible. Great buy if you're not sure kayaking is for you.
Only downside is the legroom. I'm 6'3 215 lbs and still fit in, although leg room is a little tight. I also take lengths to dry it i point fans at it for a few hours, making sure to get the inside crevices dry.
This kayak is thick and able to handle her claws and does great skimming over rock without puncturing. We love this thing for how fast and maneuverable it is. For all components feels very heavy and solid, it's like bounce house material.

It inflates in less than 10 easy minutes. When you deflate the boat, it collapses on top of this valve. There was a hole in the bottom upon first inflation.

My husband has a difficult time with the seat- he's built like a tank so the seat back doesn't really support him leaning into it.
The boat itself inflates in two minutes - about 55 to 58 pumps in each of the two chambers with the manual pump that is include... Read More

I can't say for sure how long these boats will last, but i've already more than made up the cost in rental fees.
Definitely won’t ever be taking our 80lb lab mix on it though.

I was amazed it took only 34 minutes to inflate and it appeared stiffer than the 2person likely due to its shorter length

It is lighter weight than a hard shell so wind can be an issue
