Perfect and met our needs!
My husband and I were talking about getting a kayak for a couple years. The only problem was that two hard bodied ones are too expensive and so are the two seated ones as well. Furthermore, having to get a rack for our cars was a bit of a turnoff. After kayaking in Moab in a inflatable kayak, it gave us the idea that perhaps an inflatable one was our best option and we started looking around for one. We were thrilled to come across the Sea Eagle. We loved the quality, the ease of transport, the ease of putting it together and we especially loved the price. We got the pro package because of the better seats and we're glad. As others have mentioned, the toughest part is the initial job of fitting the rubber rings on each of the valves. This is a two-person job, but not as bad as we expected. One person puts the rubber ring on as much as they could and holds it on while the second person pulls the ring the rest of the way over the valve. Once it's on, it never has to be done again. It took us around 20 minutes to blow it up the first time. We weren't sure what we were doing and of course we were a bit nervous. After the first time, it takes us about ten minutes to inflate and literally one minute to deflate. It's honestly a snap to do! My husband had wanted to purchase an electric pump instead of relying on the foot pump included, but I told him that others swear that the foot pump is all that's needed and they're right. It's amazing how much air gets pumped into the boat with just one push of the foot. You do NOT need another pump! We had some concerns about the comfort of seats which are blown up. They're quite comfortable. I can't speak for the regular seats, but the pro seats are well formed with good back and rear-end support. When doing our research, we weren't sure if we should get the 370 or the smaller sized one. We wanted a kayak that gave us a decent amount of room, but was still manageable to be rowed by one person if we wanted. My husband is 6 foot and I'm 5'6" and the 370 is perfect. It gives us plenty of room for our legs, plus for our stuff, but is still small enough to be used by only one of us. If you're looking for a two-man kayak, get the 370. The 340 would be too cramped, I believe. One thing should be noted: You do tend to sit up a bit higher than you would in a hard shelled kayak. Letting out some of the air in the seats would bring you down lower, but we're fine with the higher seating and enjoy the firm support. We've taken the kayak on a calm lake with little breeze, on a lake with a little bit of wind as well as on a river that started off calm and became a bit windy and had some small rapids from time to time. It performed well in all instances! Would it be great in a high wind situation? Probably not, but a light wind didn't cause any issues for us. Does it move through the water as easily as a hard body kayak? Not quite, but it does move through the water easily and doesn't take away from the experience. For someone who's looking for a kayak that can be thrown into a car easily, doesn't cost a small fortune and that is well made and tough, this is the kayak for you. Others are just as impressed as we are. There isn't a time when we take it out that at least one or two people come over to us to ask questions about it.

WOW!
I have been wanting my own kayak since I was a kid (26 now) and recently began researching to see what I can get for around $400. I kept seeing inflatable kayaks but dismissed them as silly... I found the Sea Eagle kayaks while on amazon and began a day of research. After finding an overwhelming amount of positive reviews and videos online showing me what this kayak has to offer i pulled the trigger and purchased it. Its such a great value for such a versatile kayak, 2 seats, 2 paddles, pump, patch kit and the kayak for $350. Couldn't find any other kayak that offered this much value. Being able to blow up and deflate the kayak and essentially bring it anywhere is AMAZING! I live in an apartment right next to a river and being bale to just blow it up and go on the river is great, being able to deflate and just store it in a closet is even more amazing. But how does it handle on the water... GREAT!!! I was extremely impressed with how well this kayak handles in calm, choppy, windy conditions I had the other day. Its a tidal river I live next to and I was able to easily paddle against the current. I first went by myself and after a while just floated around in the middle of the river laying on the kayak it was comfortable as could be. I then took it out with a friend and it handled just as well and we were able to paddle and move with ease. I have no cons as of yet to mention literally everything about this kayak is better than I anticipated. It will be tough to go on a camping trip with 2 people, its definitely do-able if you pack lite but would be tight. By yourself i feel i could pack for a week. If you are looking for a cheap kayak buy this hands down, its versatile in that you can bring it any where and go by yourself or 2 people and extremely easy to paddle. I hope its durable and lasts many years, we will have to see. But initial impressions are that its great!!! *** 10.7.13 Update*** Just got back from an overnight trip on the Delaware and WOW is all i have to say once again! I cant say enough about how amazing this SE 370 is! Perfect in every way, I was able to pack everything for an overnight trip for a friend and myself with room to spare. The kayak dominated in all the rapids, when it did get caught up on rocks it was Easy to get off. Stable, Mobile, Solid, Straight, Comfortable, and Perfect are some words to describe this amazing product. I am recommending this to everyone I know! I hope it last the years but my initial impressions is amazing, thank you Sea Eagle for this awesome product!

Living the dream.
Got this Kayak for a few reasons: It is inflatable (I live in an apartment and a hard kayak is not an option), and it was in my price range, and I liked what the reviews had to say. Got a chance to try it out today... I might have rated it with five stars, but I only tested it in smooth water and I'm not an experienced kayaker, so hesitated to give it all the stars without actually knowing how to put it thorough all it's paces. However, I can say I'm very happy with it so far!! Stability - It was very stable, even getting and getting out, and bear in mind that I am neither graceful, or in shape, or (ahem) remotely slim. Handling - It handled really well. Bear in mind, we were in a lake, on relatively smooth water but we could easily manuver it with either one or two people paddling, and could do intricate turns (even with two inexperienced paddlers) around buoys and the like. Wind: We had some wind, but not a lot... however, I can see that if it was windy, the handling might become more of a challenge. Ease of inflation - Cannot be easier. The foot pump works great; the hardest part was installing the one-way valves to start with. Ease of deflation: Could not be easier. Unscrew the valve tops, and it pretty much does most of the work. Very fast. Ease of getting back in the bag - at this moment, unknown. I have the kayak drying in my tub, and need to clean it off (got some sand and crud in it) before repacking it. However, I don't think it's going to be a problem. Paddles - again, I'm not an experienced kayaker, so someone with a lot of expertise might have a different opinion, but I like the paddles better than the one-piece ones I learned on. The nice part is that you can sort of rotate the angles of the blades merely by adjusting which hole the locking mechanism in the middle of the paddle is in - so you can adjust the angles to be straight (middle hole) or 45 degrees either way by moving to one of the other two holes. (They are a four-part paddle, so there's two paddle ends, and two bits that make up the length of the paddle, the adjustment is where those two pieces snap together). All in all, am thrilled so far. Stable, easy to handle, easy to paddle, easy to inflate, easy to deflate, and FUN. Good bang for my buck. The whole goal here for me was to get something I could use by myself or with someone else to cruise around lakes... most specifically some Montana lakes in a couple years when I get to go back "home" for a celebration. This kayak will make that dream happen.

writing titles is the hardest part of a review
Overall, this is great. It's so cheap that if something happened to it, I wouldn't be that upset about it, but it's tough enough that I don't expect to have any issues with it. Comparing to sit-on-top tandem hard kayaks also sold on Amazon: Sea Eagle 370 inflatable kayak is $250, 12.5' long, holds 650 pounds, weighs 32 pounds, has two skegs, can move a seat to the middle for one person, and comes with two paddles (about a $70 value). Perception Rambler hard kayak is $700, 13.5' long, holds 550 pounds, weighs 78 pounds, doesn't have any skegs, the seats don't move, and doesn't come with paddles. Ocean Kayak Malibu hard kayak is $663, 12' long, holds 375 pounds, weighs 57 pounds, doesn't have any skegs, the seats don't move, and doesn't come with paddles. So looking at the basic metrics, this kayak is superior. If you want to say that this kayak is not as tough as the hard kayaks, then you can look at Sea Eagle's whitewater kayaks. Remember, all professional whitewater tours use inflatable rafts, so just because it's inflatable doesn't mean it's not tough. The Sea Eagle 380x inflatable kayak is $950, 12.5' long, holds 750 pounds, weighs 40 pounds, and comes with two paddles. So more expensive, but still much lighter and can hold more. So let's review this Sea Eagle 370 kayak in depth. 1. Portability: Throwing this in the back of your vehicle is way easier than hoisting it on top. In addition, you don't have to have roof racks, either permanently installed or strapped pads. You don't have to worry about getting a hit on your MPG because it's on top, you don't have to worry about it getting stolen because you left it on top of your vehicle in the hotel parking lot, you don't have to worry about it not being strapped down properly and coming off, and you don't have to worry about damaging it pulling into a garage because you forgot it was up there. If you do want to inflate it at home and transport it on top, you can still transport it on top. 2. Inflating: Super quick and easy. You're talking about a couple of pounds of pressure, unlike your bicycle tires. The foot pump works great, and you can also get a pump that plugs into a wall outlet or your vehicle's 12V outlet. I'm not talking about a pump for your vehicle's tires; I'm talking about something that pumps up pool toys, with a pump hose about an inch wide or so. 3. Storage: Take a towel and wipe it down, deflate it, and put it in the provided storage bag. The bag is big enough so it's not difficult to use, and comes with a shoulder strap to carry it around. The kayak is bulky enough so it's not really easy to carry it around, but it's not a big deal. 4. Tracking: the longer the kayak, and if it has a skeg/fin underneath, the better it stays in a straight line. This 370 has two skegs, and tracks pretty well. The skegs are not removable (unlike Sea Eagle's Class IV kayaks). They seem pretty sturdy, however, so I wouldn't worry about them in whitewater. The instructions talk about how to heat them and bend them straight if they get bent. I was surprised how quick and straight this kayak was, maybe because my expectations were so low. 5. Seats. Yeah, I'm not crazy about the seats, which Sea Eagle calls "deluxe". I let out some of the air in the seats, and that seemed to help. If you want different seats, like the ones that hook onto D rings, there are no D rings on this kayak. Which also means that if you flip this kayak, there's a chance that the seats will come out. The back isn't very high, which means the back of my life jacket is always wanting to ride over the top of the seats. 6. Width. This is a thin kayak, 15" wide, with high sides. This is good for keeping water out and balance, but if you have a life jacket that has pads all the way around your waist, you may want to get a life jacket that just has the inflatable stuff in the front and back, as the sides of the kayak were pushing on the sides of my life jacket. 7. Foot wells. There are no foot wells, like with a hard kayak. I don't think that's an issue, as I'm used to getting all gnarly in a canoe, and that doesn't have foot wells. And whitewater rafts don't have foot wells. My hard kayak is short, and my knees get in the way of my paddle using the foot wells, so I don't think of this as a big loss. 8. Looks. I'm not crazy about how it looks, as it looks wimpier than it is. Maybe if it was another color or something. The rope dressings at the ends are nice for carrying it. 9. Length. It may be 12.5' long, but the interior is only 10'8" long. Two people are tight, especially if you're storing stuff. If I was ever going to upgrade to their Class IV kayaks, I'd get the 420x, which is 14' long. 10. Paddles. I think they work well. 3.0 pounds each, and lighter carbon fiber ones are 2.5 pounds. I've never used carbon fiber before. 11. Handles. Can use the ropes up front, but there are no handles on the side. Would have made carrying it easier. Meh. I paid $285 in early August, and as of early September, it's gone down to $250, so I guess I should have waited for the season to end. Make sure you think you'll like it, because you can't return it, unless it's torn or something. The picture shows a yellow 8.3' kayak underneath it.

... is no โRubber Boatโ This is Kayak is an excellent investment. We have been using this for about ...
***** 2 ยฝ Month Review - This is no โRubber Boatโ This is Kayak is an excellent investment. We have been using this for about 2 ยฝ months now. It came to our door in about 4 days time. It was packed very well and unpacked easily. It included the 370 Kayak, very large and good quality Sea Eagle canvas duffle bag, 2 paddles that break down to 4 pieces each per paddle (2 paddle ends, 2 poles make 1 paddle and there are 2 complete paddles), 1 lightweight but sturdy foot pump complete with hose and adapters (this pumps a very large amount of air in a very short amount of time), a repair kit, and a gauge to measure the air pressure. The gauge is a clear piece of plastic that simply measures against the markings on the inflatable tubes of the craft. It is real simple to use. The material is a tough PVC that can take a lot of abuse and cleans up nicely. ** Tip, we ran the repair kit string through it so it doesnโt get lost and is easy to find. ***** Sea Eagle 370 Kayak First we empty the Duffle bag and Gym bag, we break it up and place the Kayak and Paddle poles in the Sea Eagle canvas duffle bag, and place the Paddle ends, foot pump, and Measuring device in a regular Gym bag. The Gym bag is light enough for 1 person to carry along with the 2 seats, while the other one pulls the heavier Sea Eagle bag on out folding cart. (Thatโs just how we do it, it is nice and easy that way) This Kayak sets up and tears down like a dream, partly due to their use of special valves that install and un-install with finger pressure. Easy enough that my 9 year old granddaughter not only can do it but has done it now multiple times. They are a large diameter and the only hard thing was getting their retainer loops around the Boat sockets. If you have weak fingers, you may need help initially installing them, but once they are on, they stay on and you donโt need to worry about them again. Setting up is as easy as rolling the Kayak out, Place the inflatable Skeg covers (Skegs are the 2 bottom fins for tracking) in place to protect them, then threading the valves in, then inserting the hose to each tube, one at a time, and using the foot-pump to pump in the air. This is done surprisingly quickly, and then capping off the valves by just screwing on the caps. I get a lot of interested people who watch us and are amazed that we are able to have a 12 ยฝ foot Kayak in a bag. And once close up, they too are amazed at the quality of this. You start with the bottom, then do the 2 sides, taking the measuring tool to get the right amount of air in them, then you inflate the front and back end caps which firm up the Kayak. ***** Seats Next are the Seats, you simply place them in the Kayak in the desired places, easy as pie. The Pro package we ordered came with the Pro Seats. They are of a good quality and are covered in a canvas which not only protects them and adds stability, but also make a neutral temperature to sit on, so if the sun is blazing, and you are out of the boat on shore or swimming, when you get back in, the seat is not scorching hot, and the opposite goes if it is cold. You can put the seats in anyplace in the Kayak to adjust for amount of space you need. I would recommend getting the Pro Package for the extra, it is worth it. Next we take the Skeg covers off, put them in back of the kayak, place the Kayak in the water and tie it off. Then while one person watches the Kayak, the other takes back the bags, pump, and cart to the car and locks it up. Then we are ready to go. As detailed as this may sound, after a few times, this team work only takes about 15 minutes from car trunk, to getting into the Kayak. ***** Paddles We jump in the Kayak and are off to fun : ) The Paddles are light weight and strong, and break down to 4 pieces per paddle. All the pieces do float, so if one rolls off the pier while assembling, it wonโt sink. They are easily put together, and they give you 3 positions to adjust for your paddling, we just use the center position. My 9 year old granddaughterโs 1st job when we start putting it up, it to assemble the Paddles, takes her less time than it does for me to roll out the Kayak and set the inflation valves. ***** Useage As for using the Kayak, it handles very well, I am about 5โ7โ 195#, and Grand daughter is about 4โ and 85#. I sit in the back and place her seat about 2/3 the way up the kayak, and that seems to work well for us, giving me good leg room and her too. We synchronize our paddling and can make good speed. However when it is windy and waves are a bit high, I can see where a hard body Kayak would be better as the Sea Eagle has a larger profile for the wind and waves to fight. I bought this mainly to provide a healthy and fun way to work off some of my mid-section, and Kayaking defiantly does work your mid section, you can feel the burn. By summerโs end I should be at my weight goal. It is easy to paddle and can go pretty quick, plus it handles the large Boat swells much better than a Hard Kayak, as it is flexible enough to roll with the waves, whereas the hard Body Kayaks I see,, the waves will sometimes wash over them. I can visualize many years of use with this and cannot recommend it enough.

I've tried a lot of kayaks and I'm impressed. But NOT for whitewater!
I've been kayaking and canoeing for almost 40 years, I've tried several other inflatable kayaks, and this was a really good deal for the money. First, maybe I missed it in the other reviews, but it doens't take 30 minutes to setup or take down as some have said. The first time, sure. But after I knew what i was doing, it took me 10 minutes from the time I pulled it out of the bag to going in the water. Same thing when deflating. I use a power inflator (a cheap Walmrt one that plugs into your car's accessory power), then I finish with the foot pump... about 5-10 pumps in each fo the 3 chambers with the foot pump and I'm good to go. I don't know how much time I save with the power inflator, maybe 3-5 minutes, but you're still looking at 15 minutes tops. Clearly, it isn't as good as a "regular" kayak for long distances. It's a "jack of all trades", and in every category you could spend much more and get a better boat for a particular application. But as a quick, inexpensive, all around boat, it's perfect. It's slower than your standard kayak, it's almost like a canoe in that regard. And for any lake or ocean trips over 2 or 3 miles I'd get frustrated (and tired!). And there are much more exspensive inflatable kayak's that are better for whitewater. Going into the wind with this on a lake or ocean is a challenge too. But I was impressed at how well it tracked, and it rode fairly high in the water. All in all, it's versatile, it's an easy setup, and you're out on the water with minimal fuss. That speed of setup is really important for me, and because of that I've been using it even more than I thought I would. For my regular kayak it takes me about 30 minutes to prep... put roof racks on, muscle the 50 lb. tandem on the roof, tie it down, etc. At 10 minutes setup this thing is amazing. Throw the bag in the back of your car, and go. I've used it to tow extra gear from a regular kayak, I toss it in the back of my motor boat for queit morning paddling or fishing, and I plan to try it on Class 2-3 whitewater soon. It's a little shorter and smaller than the usual "Ducky" inflatable kayaks I've used before on some Class III, so I'll be interested to see how it does, but I'm sure it will be fine, probably a little more maneuverable. My main reason for getting it was that I currently have a Heritage 15' tandem kayak which we love, but it doesn't hold much camping gear, which means very, very primitive camping. So we loaded this inflatable with about 150 lbs. of "luxury" camping gear... stuff like a big cooler, folding chairs, extra sleeping bag, queen air mattress, more food and clothes... and jsut towed it with my Heritage. My girlfriend loved all the "luxury" items so that alone was worth it! Worked great, rode really high in the water so drag was less than I'd anticipated, and it tracked perfectly, even in a 5-10mph breeze... but it did catch that breeze more than a standard would. All in all I'm really glad I got it, and I'm using it a lot more than I would have guessed. Update: I recently tried it on some whitewater for the first time. I did it solo, and it was much more unstable than the NRS Duckie I've rented many times (an NRS Outlaw II). The lateral stability isn't great, probably due to the center/bottom inflation section that actually extends about 4-6" lower in the water than the 2 side tubes. So it lifts you up in the center just a little, which means more instability. I didn't dump, but I came really, really close on a relatively short Class III section. I don't scare in whitewater easily, but I have to admit it was not fun... it took every ounce of fortitude and conecentration I had. In fact, this water was more like Class 2.5, so if it was longer or full Class III all the way I would have dumped for sure. (Class II, no problem, but you can ususally do Class II on an air matress if you want, so that's not saying much.) Compared to the NRS, which is called a "Duckie", the NRS is made specifically for whitewater with a flat bottom, and it's a little wider. I've done the same section of water at the exact same level (it's a measured Dam release) on the NRS a lot, and I always felt completely stable and in control. I'd be very skeptical of anyone who says it's great on Class III. Maybe it would be a little more stable with 2 people in it, but I don't think so. Plus, it took on quite a bit of water and the drain hole isn't worth the risk... it's just a hole with a screw-on cap... it doesn't ahve a true one-way bailing function. Personally, I won't be doing anything more than Class II on it... it's really not made for whitewater, and IMHO both the manufcaturer, and some reviewers, are really being irresponsible by suggesting it is. That being said, it's still pretty handy, but I was really hoping to do whitewater as well. For that sole reason I wish I'd bought the NRS, although it's twice as much.

A BIG disappointment
My husband and I are traditional Kayakers and have owned 2 "Hard " tandem kayaks which we love.We always wondered about the Sea Eagle brand of inflatables.I noted that many stores had put the 330 and 370 on sale on-line but we called all of them and no one had a kayak that we could "See and sit in" at any locations. Knowing how good Amazon is at returns and customer satisfaction, we bought the 370. It arrived a few days ago and the box was so heavy, I wondered how this was going to be "easier for us. I was impressed with the paddles and the foot pump and first tried to blow up the "PRO" seats that were supposed to be so much better than the deluxe(usually $100.more) They were much smaller than I had imagined and there is not way to attach them to the kayak. A good stiff wind could blow them away and they move around at will in the Kayak, but they seemed comfortable. The boat is much heavier than I thought. We imagined hiking into difficult locations to kayak, but the 370 is very heavy unless you are young and in shape, and considering all the other gear one would need, paddles, pump, ect, this would be a hard sell for us.I proceeded to roll out the boat in our garage and attached the valves. The valves are tricky to get on and the ones in the kayak are in a foolish, hard to get to, place. All three together right in the front, at angles that make it hard to get the pump into.Why they did not put them on the sides or the top where one could easily get to is beyond me. But I inflated the boat in a short time with the foot pump. Then I realized that this kind of big, klutzy pump would have to ride with us wherever we went in case of accidental deflation. There is clear plastic gauge( a thin easily lost piece of plastic)that one holds up to the boat to check for inflation. Seems like a good idea but should somehow be attached to the boat permanently as it is pretty important and I lost it three times in the garage. The spray skirts on the bow and stern have their own valves. Seems dumb, fiddling with 2 extra valves for that. Anyhow, the boat looked awesome and we sat in it and had a lot of room and felt pretty comfortable.Couldn't wait for the weekend to get it into the water. The next morning, the right side of the Kayak and both seats were deflated. Read the directions and checked the valves as they suggest, re-inflated the kayak. A few hours later the same side was deflating again. I cannot put my life on the line using this line of products. I guess this Kayak would be fine for a lakeside camp where people are in bathing suits and are very near the shore. For any serious Kayakers, I wouldn't recommend this Kayak. It seems like an accident waiting to happen. I just called Amazon and this Item is going back Pronto.

The boat is not yet wet!
The Sea Eagle arrived promptly. It was brought in the house for opening. I seldom read instructions, but I do watch YouTube videos so the few assembly items were not much of a hurdle. My wife, she reads the instructions on most items we assemble, she was not overly impressed with the printed instructions. Air caps for the bladders. They sorta suck. I have one or two that did not hold up to being installed. Plan on buying additional and having one or more on ready reserve to not be without when needed. Make extra caps an add on when you purchase your Sea Eagle. It is not an option, it likely should be. The foot pump. Although it works, it sorta sucks as well. Maybe with enough practice I can get the fill time in less than 15 minutes, but what prize would one win? The 12v powered pump, make that another add on when you buy your Sea Eagle. It was not offered as an option. I have not examined the "flat repair kit". I will do so before the first launch. The instructions did not offer which air bladder to fill first, according to my wife. One of the videos I watched suggested filling the base bladder, or the bottom of the boat, which makes sense. Filling one at a time, it was easy enough, it was a lot of foot work with the pump. The fill gauge on the two side bladders, well that is a pretty clever thing. If the clear overlay is lost or the printed gauge on the boat is rubbed off, that will prove to be a future problem. This particular Sea Eagle is on the high end of the lower tier of inflatable boats. If one were to buy the next tier up at the lowest level, you may get very little more for a lot more money. That should read as a compliment to this boat, it is clearly the best in class or as good in class in the lower tier inflatable kayaks. When I actually get the boat wet and if I see additional issues, I will update this review.

kann ich nur empfehlen!!
Fรผr mich nehmen die Bewertungen bei Amazon einen immer hรถheren Stellenwert ein, was sich auch bewahrheitet. Wenn man im Internet nach aufblasbaren Kajak sucht kommen TOP Platzierungen, wenn man dann bei Amazon die Bewertungen auswertet, ist die Realitรคt anders. Diese Kajak habe ich aufgrund der Bewertungen bei Amazon gekauft und bin damit sehr zufrieden. Ich schreibe die Bewertung, nachdem wir mit dem Kajak einen Indonesien Urlaub gemacht hatten. Das Kajak hatten wir in eine XXL Reisetasche mit Rollen verstaut, wiegt 24Kg (bei 30Kg international frei kein Problem) Wir waren an mehreren Orten mit keinen Inseln und hatten diese immer mit dem Kajak besucht. Das Kajak wurde aufgeblasen, wir waren jeden Tag damit unterwegs, dann wurde das Kajak verstaut, wir sind in Indonesien weiter geflogen und dann das ganze wieder von vorn. Ich wollte damit schreiben, dass das Kajak wirklich strapaziert wurde, aber ohne eine einzige Panne! Super! Wir hatten eine sehr schรถne Zeit mit dem Kajak und haben Orte erreicht, welche man ohne Boot oder Schiff (die es in der Region nicht gab) nie erreicht hรคtten. Da wir nur zu zweit im Kajak waren, hatten wir genug Platz fรผr Getrรคnke und unsere Schnorchelausrรผstung incl. Taucherflossen. Auch einen kleineren Wellengang auf dem Meer ist fรผr das Kajak kein Problem. Dieses Kajak ist nicht in den Rankings oder Tests vorn, aber eine 100% Empfehlung!

Exceptional Family Kayak
My husband and I moved to Vancouver with a dream of being able to explore the waters. The Sea Eagle has made these dreams a reality! We have had this kayak for about a year, and I couldn't be happier. It fits our family of 3 (mom, dad and toddler) comfortably. Our small dog and a bag for snacks and water can fit as well. We have taken it out dozens of times on lakes and the Pacific Ocean (inlets of Vancouver). It is sturdy, reliable, easy to assemble and has responsive steering. The air valves make inflation and deflation dummy-proof, and the foot pump is efficient. Set up takes about 5-10 minutes. It's heavy, so we now have a collapsible wagon that can carry everything to our launch point. Then, we bungee the wagon to the back of the kayak, and off we go! We also have a small, collapsible dolly that the kayak can bungee to, and we can carry the accessory bag (which has ample room for everything included in the package, plus our three life vests). Our family feels very safe in this craft. I would not recommend it for extremely choppy waters (check the conditions before going out), but it has served us well for our purposes. Even with some wind, large wake and strong tides, we have managed to get from point A to point B with no problems - it just takes a tad more man power. There have been zero punctures or leaks, and we use it regularly. I would highly recommend this kayak to anyone seeking ongoing adventure on a budget. It's a dream come true.

comfortable, light and easy to inflate/deflate
Very well made, tracks straight, comfortable, light and easy to inflate/deflate. Worth the money as it is high quality along with the seats and paddles. Theres lots of room for 2 or 3 people or 2 people and a lot of camping / travel gear etc..This would be a good kayak to go on a weekend or longer adventure. It is so easy and fast if you have to deflate it and put it in your vehicle and inflate it somewhere else. No tieing it to the roof and worrying if it is tied down securely etc.. Lots of room in the kayak for 2 taller people or for fishing etc..I love to go out on the water stretch out laydown and just let it float with the waves. Sometimes i'll go out 30 feet and tie it to a tree on shore and pass out for hours enjoying the warm sunshine and breeze off the water. I definitely would buy one again or another Sea Eagle product !

Overall Good Product
Easy to set up and the seats are comfortable. I have taken this out twice, once on a calm lake and the other on fast moving river. On the lake it was very fast and easy to maneuver. On the river I was going up stream and although I wasn't going to break any speed records it kayak performed very well. The paddles are great and very comfortable. Lots of room if you want to pack some gear along for the trip. The most impressive thing about the kayak is that you can pack it away for the winter without taking too much space. It's easy to load up and pack in your car as well without the need for roof racks. The performance is comparable to other non inflatable kayaks the only thing it lacks is the speed.

A great choice when convenience is more important then performance.
Surprisingly rigid when fully inflated and feels very stable in lakes and rivers even with motor boat wakes and moderate winds. Pro Seats are comfortable, solid and recommended. Can make good progress into the wind or current but it's definitely not quite as "fast" as a rigid hull. The longer 370 model has decent leg room for 2 average height adults, I saw another couple out in the shorter 330 with regular seats and am definitely glad I chose this option. Because it's inflatable there isn't much stowage under the splash covers in the bow and stern, taking two adults and camping gear in this might be a challenge but certainly seems possible. As an inflatable the real win is convenience - with a bit of practice and a low pressure battery air pump to fill the bulk of the air you can unpack and inflate ready for launching in 5 minutes. Same for deflation and packing - it's great being able to throw it in the trunk of a small car. Can be tricky to roll up tightly enough to fit in the carry bag and you have to be careful not to bend the solid plastic skegs on the underside, although apparently these can be straighted again by warming with a hairdryer. One reasonably strong person can carry the whole kit packed up in it's carry bag with the shoulder strap, but it is pretty heavy and uncomfortable and you probably wouldn't want to hike more than a few hundred meters like that.
