Sea Eagle 393rl Inflatable Kayaks and Canoe Reviews

I love everything about the kayak except the leg rests. The razorlite 393rl is fast, folds nicely, and is portable and manageable without needing a roof rack or any major storage space. I enjoy kayaking it and the ease with which it goes from folded up in the bag to a real kayak. My only gripe is that the leg rests are stubborn and difficult to get on.

I am 64 yrs old /easy to paddle,straight,fast,you need small or big lake or reservoir for this kayak.

roll in and out of kayak for swimming/water does not splash in easily/8 miles is nothing for this kayak

We have been pretty happy so far, although only two trips so far. It has been cold in the West this spring! I am still learning the folding tricks (a better set of videos would be great) and agree with many that the rods for the adjustable footrests are too hard to insert when the boot is cool. I leave ours in now! We love the trailer, but it is too wide for these boats. The seats are also not very comfortable, although better with Sweet Cheeks. We are still fiddling with the seat placement in the kayak and often find it tends to be too far to the rear and the result is poor tracking. Convenince is fabulous except that it is hard to get ALL the water out and also dirt tends to gather in the tight spaces between the chambers.

I couldn't be happier with this kayak. It's well made, comfortable, can carry everything I need, and as fast (or faster) as/than any of the rigid kayaks my friends use. Drop Stitch material & 10psi give a true boat-like shape that's very solid and strong when inflated. Spend the few extra bucks for the high-back seat & carbon fiber paddle...they're worth it. Delivery was quick, less that a week. Transport & setup are easy but I recommend an electric air pump. Factory support has been excellent! Jerrry in tech support is great to work with. Ask about the modified rods for the Flex Brace foot rests. The company listened to customer feedback and developed a solution to what was a problem for many installing these rods...the new ones practically fall into place! After one outing I had no intention of using the 120-day return but it's reassuring to know I have 3-years of warranty from a great company. If you're looking for a quality inflatable I strongly recommend SeaEagle.

Last year I bought the FastTrack 465ft so that I could paddle with my family of three. I really love the stability. A few months later I bought the RazorLite 393rl for its single person speed and sleekness. I enjoy going on 3 hour cruises with it. The RL is quite fast and tracks very straight even without the skeg, while the FT really needs the skeg to track well. It is definitely tippier than my FT, but that is to be expected as both boats serve different purposes. The multi-person FT is great for no-thinking, casual paddling, lounging, stand up paddle if you want, lay down in it, etc. The solo RL is built for speed; too tippy to stand up comfortably or move around too much in it - it is just not as stable as the bigger FT. That said, the 393rl is still my favorite boat hands down! It is SO FUN to use! It's like comparing a Cadillac SUV (the FT) to a Porsche 911 turbo (the RL). Both are great for their strengths, but for me, I prefer the faster "kayak feel" of the RL. I really LOVE BOTH boats, though.

I am loving the Razorlite 393 RL a friend of mine has a hard shell kayak and I have no problem keeping up with him. This boat is very stable not a worry at all. I must say the customer service from Sea eagle has been great Jerry has been very helpful with some minor things I needed help with. Would very much recommend this over other brands I have tried.

I loved my Kayak, so easy to transport and use. Handles great in the water!

Love it except for putting in the foot pegs. It’s almost impossible for me. I always need help.

Awesome kayak! We have 2 in our sailboat in Mexico. They get lots of interest and positive comments from others. These paddle very well and track nicely without the skeg. My only complaint is that the foot peddles can be difficult to get in and out. It helped to shave down and round one end of the metal rod. One other thing on that topic - thr plastic ridges that hold the foot pedals in place have very sharp points - given the difficulty in installing the pedals (as mentioned), I feel like these sharp plastic points could do some damage to fingers and hands. Could you round these off?

Very pleased with the kayak. Easy to inflate only complaint is a bit difficult to put on and take off the pedals. Tracks well, smooth in the water. Stores easily
