Perhaps a stand-up paddle board would be a better choice
Apples and oranges.. Only you can make up your mind re what you want/need.
This is the cheapest kayak you can find and the previous deals around that price got tens of upvotes.
edit: The current regular price on Amazon is only $15 more. I assume they're normally out of stock there, right? And they're more expensive elsewhere. Anyway, here's the history of that kayak on OzB: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/product/intex-challenger-k2
I have one of these but admittedly have used it only once so far. The quality of the materials and construction was actually much sturdier than I was expecting, and far surpasses a cheapo inflatable boat type product (like the orange 'Explorer 2000' boats that have been around forever).
Can't speak to the longevity however.
I currently have two of these and I'm pretty happy with the quality ( for the price).
they've lasted at least 10 kayaks down a river last year, and I've been out twice this year without any trouble.
Thanks
is this for adult or child?
Weight capacity 180kg so two average Australian males (google tells me this was 85.9kg in 2011-12) and their esky with beers.
Any issues if solo?
Ordered, then cancelled after I read the reviews.
Perhaps a stand-up paddle board would be a better choice, quite a few reviewers say they crack\leak at the same seam after 4 uses.
The other reviews say the sides are so wide, it's like a sail and damaged by the oars.
Anyone have one of these?
