I am looking to buy an inexpensive inflatable kayak to get from my boat to shore and am wondering if anyone has experience with Sevylor brand?
I don't need anything special, just something I can inflate with portable air pump and deflate for easy storage as my 20' W/A has basically zero storage.
I have seen the k79 online for about $100 bucks. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mark

There ok but dont perform as well as a hard yak on extended distances unless you buy a high end one. Hobie has just introduced a foot driven inflatable which has performance equal to their hard boats from what ive heard but $1600.00

Inflates in just a few minutes and appears to be fairly well built....Mark
