Review on ๐Ÿšฃ Intex Explorer K2 Kayak: 2-Person Inflatable Kayak Set Including Aluminum Oars and High Output Air Pump by Anthony Bandzz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The redesign seems weaker than the originals

I have 3 of these, have owned them for a season now and am trying to test them, has worked great on over 20 sea trips this season, even pretty good for my 8 river trips on the river that reached class 4 (Pudre River), the porting isn't good enough for big rapids so you'll have to step aside to drain it from time to time if you're doing class 3 and up , I was very impressed with how he handles the impact of rocks in rough waters. There is a hole in one of the seams on the inside of the boat and I haven't tried to fix it yet but I have benefited a lot from it. and abusing them by keeping them in my car and having my friends unknowingly over inflate them so I can understand why the hole appeared. Overall I'm very satisfied, even if one of the three has been waiting for a year to be repaired by him, all three have holes in the bearing, I have four holes in general, including the one that I never bothered to mend . I got the Stabond and PVC patches from my local kayak shop and did my best to follow the instructions given to me, they all stand up to sea travel and am about to do my first river trip since patching, we'll see how keep them working

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not sure
