About this deal

We have been around on this in lakes with bushes and trees sticking out and it fared well against them. It’s important to note that the carry bag is not the best quality and can rip if not properly maintained.

If you are hasitating between the Challenger K2 and Explorer K2, make sure to read also our review about the Intex Challenger K2and our Intex Explorer vs Challengerarticle. This means the Challenger is more rigid in the water and therefore more supportive and stream lined, closer to a kayak made of rigid material. The paddle drip rings and rubberized grip area give the paddle a comfortable feel in the hands and help keep your hands dry. Both will cost you more than the Explorer K2, but the increase in performance (and decrease in frustration) is more than worth it, in our opinion.Follow the instructions on how to fold and deflate, or simply open all the valves—the big Boston valves deflate super fast—and fold it so it’s small enough to toss in the trunk. And when you have the right product, you’re a little bit happier which affects the people around you! If you are looking for another kayak than the Challenger K2 or Explorer K2, then you should check out the Sea Eagle 330. I am mostly by myself, but from time to time I have family come to visit that may like to kayak with me. Like all inflatables, the Intex Explorer K2 is prone to getting blown around by the wind, especially for beginners.

The lower profile of the Explorer does help it catch less wind, though we still wouldn't recommend paddling this boat on a windy day. The shorter skeg is suited to shallower water, like your local lake or a fishing trip, while the deeper skeg gives you better tracking and speed on longer trips. The Intex Explorer K2 Inflatable Tandem Kayak offers a suitable level of stability and a decent amount of buoyancy when out on the water. As an affordable inflatable kayak the Intex Explorer K2 is suitable for recreational use on flatwater. Fill with air, then head straight to the water- this is the function that briefly explains why inflatable kayaks are great.This Intex Explorer K2 review will cover the boat’s main features, along with its strengths and weaknesses to help you decide if it’s the right kayak for you. This doesn’t mean that if your Explorer K2 gets bitten by an ornery snapping turtle, Intex will send you a new one. The vinyl material ensures that it can take a fairly rough scrape and a barge against rough materials such as stones and wood or blunt sticks. Again, we reiterate that this is not a hard shell kayak so it’s not meant for rougher rides or waters. The Explorer K2 is a wider boat and the width of the kayak remains almost the same throughout its body.

The Boston valves fitted in the floor and the sidewalls allow you to get both chambers of this kayak up to pressure before you set off on the water. Due to their low air pressure, both inflatable kayaks are soft and quite comfortable, which is great for relaxing on the lake. With the Intex Explorer K2 Inflatable Kayak, you don’t have to worry about carrying a huge boat trailer on the back of your truck or car. The Challenger comes with everything you need to hit the water, including two paddles, a high-output hand pump, a repair kit, adjustable inflatable seats, a removable skeg, and a carry bag. This has to do with its weight that is very light and even a little tide is enough to push this kayak off course.Though comparatively light, vinyl isn’t quite as durable, so if you plan to use this kayak on rivers, around rough banks, or near overhanging trees, you should take care not to end up deflated. Nevertheless, the bag should be sufficient for a short transportation and is good for storing the kayak at home. These lightweight kayaks are very easy to set up, and a high-output hand pump comes with each kayak.
