Sea Eagle SE 370 Inflatable Kayaks and Canoe Reviews

Great kayak but the sail came without the cords to attach to boat

Bought a 395 PS 12' Paddleski in 2002. Have taken it on many lakes, floated rivers & paddled in an ocean. Wonderful inflatable! Decided to get the SE370 ProPkg because it is lighter & we are now in our late 70's & needed something lighter. In comparing the 2, the paddleski has some features that outshines the SE370. First, the skegs on the 370 bent in when stored even with the inflatable cushions on. They could be improved with the firmer/harder skegs like the paddleski. Since we don't carry a hair dryer when boating, they are hard to straighten once ready to go. Second, it would be nice to have hooks on the tops of the boat to secure the seats. We found that the front seat tends to move backwards. We found it hard to put the boat back into the stand up bag. We now put it in a large duffle bag that zips up so we just have to lay the boat down rather than stuffing it. The price is right for the boat but it could use some improvements. It is not as stable as we thought it would be.

Product is wonderful and just as presented. The real benefits are transportation and storage. The two person Sea Eagle is manageable but not light. Because we have different "skill sets", if we had it to do over again, we would get two singles...and show full review ▼ we may yet do that.

Best purchase of the summer!

I got the boat with 2 seats since I like going with my children. They all have loved the experience and are always looking forward to their turn. Stable boat. Excellent quality. I recommend getting the Delux kit (deluxe seats, paddles and pump). The seats are worth the extra expense. The foot-pump works surprisingly well. I bought the electric pump as well but never used it finally. Take about 10-15 minutes to inflate. Deflating the kayak is very easy. Drying the kayak before folding it takes longer. The kayak is the maximum weight I could transport by myself, but the pleasure of kayaking is worth the effort. Because it is an inflatable kayak, I let the kayak in my car the whole summer and have absolutely loved the convenience. Good quality, good value for your money. I recommend it for sure!
