thinking of getting a 2/3 person inflatable kayak and was wondering if anyone has any experience with one and could offer some insight. Just want it for paddling on lakes in France this summer with the kids. Many thanks, Noel

You're not supposed to stuff your Mrs in it!!!!We bought a Sevylor Adventure+ (3 man) last year, used it 4 times and last weekend it looked like this:
So it's gone back to Sevylor a few days ago. We used ours mainly on lakes although did try rivers but forgot that you have to be strong enough to paddle back up stream.....

We got our last 2 lots of new ones from Germany, I think the link is in one of my previous posts, but of course that was when the exchange rate was more favourable so not sure if it would be cheaper than buying in the UK now.@Minxy Girl So where did you get yours from ? I know you like a bargain like the rest of us lol
However also considering a mega cheap one for our trip to Lake Garda with a view to getting a proper one at later date

Well Sevylor agreed it was a fault and have refunded the full amount plus postage. Looking at a Gumotex Palava now, few $ more but looks worth it.
The Gumotex Palava is a Canoe not a Kayak so a different paddling style as it shows in Minxy girl's post, but a great piece of kit all the same.Well Sevylor agreed it was a fault and have refunded the full amount plus postage. Looking at a Gumotex Palava now, few $ more but looks worth it.

That's correct, you don't need one for the tidal reaches of any river, estuaries or the sea. You also don't need one for any of Scotland's riversAFAIK you only need it for inland waterways/lakes etc, and some are 'free' anyway, but not for the sea.

Itiwit 229.99 is same as the Hudson just the decathlon equivalent of sevylor I just got, nearly got the Tahiti plus which is the next model down until I came across the seller selling the Hudson.We fancy one, but over here there will be a limited choice. But we do have a Decathlon.
Are any on here any good ? For 2 folk + dog

I like the choice of kneel or sit with that extra bit of height, new paddles is a chance to buy some nice bending branches wooden paddles.Yes that's the only thing that puts me off the Palava. Looks like knees under the seat is a common position when things get a bit choppy. Would also mean we'd need new paddles.
