There are a few different family inflatable kayaks on the market that are suitable for two adults with one or two children and possibly a dog. However up until this point there has not been an inflatable kayak that could accommodate a family plus still deliver a good performance. Some models could offer length and stability, while others could offer speed but not comfort. Usually a family would have to either decide to all squish into a good model or else purchase two separate inflatable kayaks in order to fit their needs. There was a new inflatable kayak that just became available as of September 2010… the Sea Eagle 465 FastTrack. The 465 FastTrack is almost fifteen feet long, comes with three seats and has lots of room for the whole family. It is also extremely rugged, has great tracking and happens to be one of the faster models available. For the price of this inflatable kayak you get a lot for your money.
