StraitEdge™ Kayak – elf-Bailing Sit-on-Top Inflatable Kayak - Model AE1006

Most self-bailing inflatable kayaks are designed for paddling white water. They typically have quite a bit of rocker to allow quick turning and other maneuvers. The StraitEdge™ Inflatable Kayak is the first to incorporate an aluminum bow and stern frame to improve tracking in open water conditions. The frames are attached to cone shaped air bags and forced into the bow and stern. Its hull design is very similar to a hardshell sit-on-top kayak, yet it can be packed away into its duffel bag and paddled in the most remote locations.
