New Unboxed Explorer Double Seater Kayak

Regular price £849.00 Sale price £499.00

Tax included.

This kayak has been unboxed and inflated but not used on the water, it is still in new condition.

The Explorer is a flat bottom, open top kayak designed to effortlessly carve through calm, flat water. It's design makes it ideal for people who are looking for fun on rivers, lakes and flat waters and is suitable for beginners and experienced paddlers alike. 

Just like the Optimal, the Explorer is inflatable but designed to feel just like a solid kayak with no compromise in performance. What’s more, it is more affordable than the equivalent hard kayaks on the market.  

The Explorer comes with a removable seat, 4-piece paddle, wheel bag as well as a removable skeg to add speed and stability. Please note accessories may vary in ex-demo packages

Solid, not too heavy and paddles well

The difference with a non drop-stitch inflatable kayak is very noticeable. It's far stiffer and glides so much better, although a bit more wobbly. There's also plenty of space onboard.
It's great in sheltered bays, and flat water. I have taken it in flowing water and it does OK. The deep SUP style skeg helps with tracking, but does have a downside in that it will ground in shallow rivers. Also, I found the boat to be frustrating to paddle with one person in stronger head winds, as the bow will get pushed by the wind to the point where paddling other than exactly into the wind becomes a struggle.

Our boards in a nutshell

We have a dedicated team who take great pride in the manufacturing the very best inflatable paddleboards. This high quality craftmanship improves all aspects of the boards production and is reflected in the outstanding quality of the finished product.

1. Comfortable Grippy DeckPad

The best deck pads are machine pressed in addition to gluing.

2. PVC with Woven Inner

Outer Skin Strength is important for long life and pressure capacity.

3. Fusion Technology

An additional layer of PVC is laminated to the dropstitch core. Fusion results in a lighter, stiffer, longer lasting board, and much better for the environment too than toxic glues.

4. Super Reinforced, High Density Dropstitch

The strength/lightness ratio of the fibres, is key to creating a super rigid but light board.

5. UV Resistant

Built to withstand long-term exposure to sunlight, minimising material decay and keeping colours clear and vibrant.

6. Triple Layer On Rail

A 3rd and final layer around the rail of the board creates a second seal and ensures there are no weak points on the board.

7. Heat Treated Seal

A laminated, heat pressed inner seam on the fused PVC surrounding the core of the board creates a 100% airtight and waterproof seal. Much better and stronger than gluing.
