Sevylor Hudson Inflatable Kayak, Three Person - Blue

Product Information

If you pack it away wet, the water shouldn't cause any structural damage to the boat, but it could form mould, which won't look or smell very pleasant. At the aft of the boat, beneath the zip-up spray deck, the Hudson comes with a dry bag with anchor points to clip it to the boat to avoid getting lost. You’ll also find that sitting slightly higher up makes paddling much easier, not having reaching over the side chambers as much to get your paddle in the water. Having canoed a lot in kayaks and Canadians, I can say it doesn't glide quite as well and is certainly not as manoeuvrable as a kayak (we've not tried white water yet, though).

Sevylor Hudson Inflatable Kayak - Great for Families

I like that the nylon cover is melded with the bladders instead of just being a cover like on the AE kayaks.It’s a good choice for two parents with a child, or three youths (the cockpit of the Hudson is a little too cramped and the 465-pound capacity too limited for three adults). They’re great for family use at the beach or cottage but not meant for open water or exposed conditions.
