Sea Eagle 420x Inflatable Kayak
The $999 420x inflatable kayak from Sea Eagle is the largest kayak in the line. It is therefore longer and wider at 14’x3’1” than the other two inflatable models. The advantage to its larger size is that it can carry a maximum of 3 adults or a maximum of 855 lbs. That’s one passenger more than the 340x inflatable kayak.
Despite its larger dimensions, it is still highly portable at 52 lbs. You don’t need a trailer for this one and you don’t need a large garage for storage after use. In other words, this is still the kayak of choice if you want to go on a far off adventure with a friend or two.
Just like its smaller sisters, the 420x inflatable is ideal for both whitewater and flatwater conditions. It can keep its drains closed in flatwater but it can also bail out efficiently in whitewater conditions as rugged as class IV rapids. You don’t have to worry about this kayak in rough waters. Its 1000 Denier material and specially sealed seams will ensure that there will be no punctures.
There are no big disadvantages to this unit. The only possible downside might be its size. Some kayakers are able to maneuver smaller kayaks better.
