Sevylor Inflatable Colorado Canoe, 2-Person

Overall a fantastic canoe that is easy to transport and use. Took the canoe to mountain lakes (~9,000 ft elevation)and had a great time tooling around the area. Boat sits mostly on top of the water so strong wind can make maneuvering difficult. Covering is very durable and canoe is comfortable for two adults. I definitely recommend this canoe for lakes that only allow non-motorized boats or smaller lakes that don’t get big waves.

Advanced Elements Inflatable StraitEdge™ Canoe

I bought this thing last summer, and have put it to good use for 5 times at Lake Del Valle, Folsom Lake, and the Sacramento River. The 2 seats can be removed to accomodate 3 people easily. The canoe is very well-built, with 3 separate inserted air chambers (1 in each side wall, and 1 for the bottom). The 2 seats are also inflated, which can be used as life savers. The front and rear of the canoe also has inflated pockets to keep the shapes. This canoe is very stable and easy to row, as it does track very well in water (won’t spin like those flat inflatables). It won’t go as fast as those hard-shell kayak due to its size, though.

I expect to be able to use this thing for at least 5 years. So far, it looks like it will last due to the good contruction & materials.

Sea Eagle 330 Inflatable Kayak with Deluxe Package

I purchased this kayak last week as an easy to store alternative to a hard sided or folding kayak. Like others, I inflated it in the living room to see how it worked, floated it in the pool, and then took it to a lake. It works well on the water, and I believe is probably the least expensive way to get out on the water in your own craft. It is easy to inflate and after around 10 minutes I was paddling away. For my first time at the lake I probably covered a couple miles in an hour. The issue I have with the boat is packing it up for storage. Between the side tubes and the floor there is a channel that traps water. I have found it very difficult to dry this adequately for storage, yet the instruction say to dry it thoroughly or it will mold. The only way I have found this to be possible is to pull the bow and stern through the spray skirts and turn the boat inside out. To be fair, this can be done at home, and is best done with partial inflation, say 1/4 inflated. This maneuver requires some physical strength and may be rough on the seams and plastic. Other than the storage issue, I am happy with my purchase and look forward to putting to frequent use. Thus far, I would recommend it to others.

Sevylor Inflatable Colorado Canoe – Blue

The canoe is easy to inflate and the handles on each side and each end make it’s 32 Lbs weight very easy to carry. My 11 y/o daughter and I easily carried it through the woods and over some fallen trees and brush to get to our pond. Within a few minutes with kayak paddles I was able to keep it going straight and fast.

Each removable seat has a detachable over sized mesh fanny pack to hold stuff. It can easily be taken off and attached to your waist. That part is not even advertised. The seats can be cinched up very tight for forward support. The canoe has plenty of spots to secure gear with rope or “D” rings. Kayak paddles seem to work real good with the wider side wall compared to a rigid canoe.

I would not try to challenge the 500 Lbs weight limit although I am sure it could handle it. It’s a great recreational but versatile little craft and I very much recommend it.
