Inflatable Kayak Blog

I was talking with a customer the other day and he mentioned that he almost tipped over when getting into his new Sea Eagle 330 Inflatable Kayak. I told him that the best way to get in was to straddle the boat while standing in the water and then just sit your butt down into the kayak. This method doesn’t put any excess weight on either side and the boat doesn’t tip at all. Of course, if you are unable to launch your kayak into shallow water where you can straddle the boat, this method won’t work. If you do have to get in the kayak off of a dock or other similar situation, just try to be as careful as you can and keep as well balanced as possible to avoid any problems.
