Sea Eagle NN126 Inflatable Paddleboard Reviews

I have two NN126's. I use mine with the tall back seat for kayaking, and with the Oarboard for rowing, as well as a SUP. It is very fast in all 3 modes. I like the hard nose-especially for rowing, as you don't always see what's ahead. It is durable like my Razorlite kayak, and more portable. They all fit easily in my SUV. Service and delivery was excellent. Great staff. The 14' runabout is next on my list.

This is my second Sea Eagle SUP and I love it. My friend wanted to try and she did great her first attempt. The longer boat is more stable.

First of all ... I am assuming that a score of 5 means Excellent ... which is the rating I would give my NN126 paddle boards ... I say boards because I bought 2. The quality is outstanding, the rigidity is great, performance as good if not better than any similar sized "non-inflatable", and the versatility is great ... in addition to the "stand up mode", we use them as "kayaks" with a seat attached (the seat from our Sea Eagle kayak) and also as a rower ... since I did add the rowing kit. Blowing the board up was easy because I used the electric pump ... it may have taken a lot longer with the manual pump, but I don't know for sure. As for portability ... I don't travel with them often ... but not having to have a Car Rack make this process easy ... outside of having to deflate and inflate. But less storage is space is big benefit. I certainly would recommend them as a Best Buy, and certainly would buy them again ... if I ever need another.

My NN126 was everything I was hoping it would be. I’d been wanting this board for years but didn’t want to pull the trigger on the $$. When the price dropped earlier this summer, it was finally time! And I’m so happy with the purchase. The board performs as well as it has been advertised. I was on it multiple times this summer and became more & more confident on it each time. My only regret.... not buying the battery powered inflation generator (I bought the electric one instead). It works great... the battery powered one would have been more convenient.

Good design, beats round noses by a mile. Great directional stability also if standing up by the handle. I wish I had known about deflating the air slightly after each use. Take the pressure off the seams and out of the sun and it will last much longer. They do advise keeping out of the sun but they should also recommend slight deflation. Also, there’s an inflation limit but no recommendation for how much pressure is actually needed. I pumped to about 13-14 lbs. but a leak began anyway. They did honor the warranty even though it had expired by the time I called them about it and the new board has served well. Unfortunately the other older one has stress cracks in the beak that leak. I patched and double patched but air still seeps out. I get about 15 minutes on it then it’s done. It is too late for warranty but it would be nice if they’d cut me a deal. Again- slightly deflate after each use and keep out of sun. It’s good exercise to pump up and that’s half the idea anyway, no?

I have been very pleased with the boat. While it is not as stable as the wooden SUPS (which I expected) as a woman I can transport, inflate and use the board without any assistance. I would not be able to do that with a wooden SUP.

I just want to give a shoutout to Susan Furrer. She is amazing. We bought our SUP's awhile years back. Inflating was kind of a hassle (but you can do it). We purchased the BP Pump and had some issues with it. She was very communicative and tried to help. She even put us in touch with the head tech, Jerry who called us on a Saturday to trouble shoot! These two employees are amazing!!

This SUP is great. Moves fast while cutting through waves with the tipped nose. I got the battery for the electric pump so able to blow up even if not near the car. The construction is top notch. I've really enjoyed it the short time i've had it. Looking for warmer weather to get back out again.

Great paddle boards. Fun to try and stand at our old age of 70 and 73. They are so easy to carry and so much fun paddling. We got the inflatable seats which makes it easier for us old folks.

I love my NN126R!! The first few times I took it out, I fell off multiple times. I was used to a hard, plastic, much shorter board, so it’s not surprising. It only took 2 outings to get the hang of balancing on this narrow board. It is so quick and easy to inflate, as well as to deflate and pack up. It is sleek and lightweight, yet durable. The Needle Nose slices through wind and waves like butter! I’ll never be able to go back to a blunt nosed board again! Paddling is much more efficient with the NN126R and I’m hooked!
