So Sea Eagle the ones to go for

Or Blue Wave.

When we got ours we were able to try before we bought.

Ours are a Sea Eagle and a Blue Wave. Both have drop stitch construction and when correctly inflated handle like rigid kayaks. I did have a Sevylor (and some rigid sit-ons including a Ride) and the Sea Eagle is superior to the Sevylor by yards. The Ride was the best kayak I ever had but got too heavy to lift around.

Been looking at Blue Wave’s with a drop stitch floor and normal sides. How have yours been?

We've only used it 2 or 3 times but we're very impressed. Ours is a 2 or 3 seater but paddled solo. That is Martin's boat. Mine is the solo Sea Eagle.

Once my health issues are stabilised we will get out again.

We've had a few inflatables, all bar one being Gumotex, my current one is a Gumotex Twist 1 full Nitrilon so easy to look after. It takes me and my dog Tazzy who acts as ballast in the front to keep the nose down which certainly helps to reduce the effect of the wind and aids tracking (I use a collapsible water container with a good few litres of water in if she's in a mood and doesn't want to go).

I have taken all 3 dogs out for a little jaunt but it gets a bit difficult to use the paddle with dog bodies in the way especially as one likes to try to sit on my knee!

Went from Batson Creek just north of Salcombe yesterday. Great fun Kayaking all through Salcombe and out as far as beyond Mill Bay towards south Beach. Batson creek is so peaceful but as soon as you get round the corner into Salcombe its like being on a watery M25 just with everyone coming from different directions! Superb fun though.

I thought I had timed it all ok as Batson creek is only good for launching towards high tide but I Was too late getting back and it had dried out somewhat. Getting out and up the mud was an absolute nightmare. I thought I was going to end up as another idiot on Saving lives at sea but got there in the end.

Isn't that the Twist, but in the old Nitrilon light material? We had a double in the same format, they weighed in a 9kg.

It is indeed a Twist, no idea where Swift came from
