The design with the fabric weather cover and nylon tubes means once wet there’s a big layer of water trapped in between those layers on the boat. Carrying it dry is fine, but coming out of the water it is MUCH heavier- heavier than even a big hardbody. The inside won’t dry in the sun or even if kept partially inflated in the garage. Eventually I decided to take the tubes out to see how long it would take the fabric to dry separately for winter. Putting the tubes back in was so frustrating-the inflation holes have to line up jUST right. Want to mess around for 15 minutes lining up a valve? this boat is for you!As far as performance, this boat is not self bailing and a simple but big wave train at the top of a long class II swamped my boat, and the boat was at least half underwater. That meant danger because my only choice was to keep going through the rapid, although I could not steer and slid over features any sane boater would WANT to avoid. Do not take this boat anywhere you anticipate real water coming in…it sucks because I have to run rapids differently to accommodate the boat.

Pros: Double layered -- so it feels much more durable (which, I believe is the primary difference between this kayak and some of the less expensive ones); easy to transport without air (stores easily in my car); handles on either side to move once blown up; feels very stable; tracks well once seat is placed correctly for more weight closer to the front; Easy to inflate (I got an air pump that hooks up to car cigarette lighter for under $15); and has a Boston valves so deflation is a breeze.Cons: Drying takes considerably longer because of enclosed bladder and requires not only air drying, but also wiping down inside the enclosures (this is why it got only 4 stars); and, like most kayaks, the seat is fine for short sessions, but not comfortable for a longer times out -- I will be replacing eventually.Does anyone make a reclining kayak seat? Lol! I love to just sit and read on the water.

bought 2 of these late summer, was not disappointed. a definite must for first kayak. easy and quick to assemble/disassemble and just through in back of your car. was able to go out on the river 6 times so far without any problems. the materials are heavy that cover the air bladders with a rubber covered bottom. we have hit rocks and dragged bottom. these hold up to punishment pretty well. would recommend using the 96" kayak paddles because these kayaks are wider than a hard shell. 84" paddles are too small even for smaller riders. these were a intermediate price inflatable kayak. they track the water pretty well. a lot faster and less effort than the rafts we have. the seats are surprisingly comfortable and support your back fairly well with good leg room. the 1 person kayaks are rated for 300 pounds. I weigh 240lbs. at 6 ft. and have enough room to carry a small cooler up front and a utility bag behind me. if you need to take more gear buy the airhead 2 person kayak which support up to 500lbs and can be used solo. looking forward to next season to use these in more challenging waters. these are rated for class II rapids. I definitely would recommend these for your recreational endeavors.

I bought 2 of these for a 3 month trip to the Bahamas on our 32 foot sailboat and have never regretted my purchase.All inflatables compromise paddling efficiency in favor of the convenience of space savings. The Airhead Montana paddles reasonably well and packs down easily into our smallish lazarette storage. They’re not too heavy and not tippy at all. It’s double layer construction is very durable and aside from some color fading, ours have held up remarkably well. The only pain about the dual wall construction is that unless you take everything apart and dry each piece really well, moisture is difficult to get rid of and will cause mold to build.Best of all they’re super comfortable. I’m 6’ ~190lbs and have plenty of room.A couple of things to note. Don’t drag your kayak. No inflatables do well with abrasion. We use ours almost exclusively in salt water so we absolutely, at minimum, rinse the zipper pulls and the paddle connection buttons with fresh water. The zipper pulls will corrode shut if you don’t and if you ever have a leak in one of the inflatable bladders, which are easily repairable, you’ll break the zipper trying to get it un-stuck. The paddle connectors are spring steel and just rust. None of these issues are any reflection on Airhead, they’re common to most similar products on the market.I’d absolutely recommend these kayaks.
