Review on 🌊 Aquaglide Deschutes Inflatable Kayak: Experience Adventure on the Water by Bryan Orozco

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice, light and durable kayak

I have owned this kayak for several weeks and have taken it several times. I've used it on several beaches/coves (salt water) in Southern California. It's lightweight, installs in minutes (with an electric pump) and dries quickly. I'm 5ft 11in, 225lbs and never felt like it would capsize or sink. The kayak feels solid and offers plenty of space thanks to its open design. The seat is comfortable. Tracking is ok, not the best. The boat rocks forward a little in the first few strokes, but after a few strokes tracking improves significantly. I usually put my cooler bag in front to add some weight and make it easier to track. It is agile and glides through the water. I have sailed in windy and changeable weather and the kayak handled great. At first I was concerned that the bottom didn't have a seam, but once you're on the water the bottom feels solid. In windy weather the boat drifts a bit. It can be a hassle to put the kayak back in the bag. Overall I am happy with this kayak and it is perfect for my needs.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
