“Kayak is delightfully quick to inflate and easy to use. But, the product is seriously let down by poorly executed paddles. Heavy, loosely connected and feeling like they would break if power was applied. They were replaced after first use.
Overall, nice product that suits our needs when travelling, happy with purchase.”
“We ordered the 410 eight weeks ago and it arrived very promptly. After a trial setup in the backyard we hit the water. We have never owned a kayak before and have only hired. We do not have a large car and the 410 packs up small enough to fit in the boot and is easy to store at home.It is also light enough for us to carry easily.We have been going out at least a couple of times a week and can get from car to on water within 15 minutes using the manual pump.The build seems pretty good but the bag has some issues. One of the brittle clips on a strap that helps tighten the bag broke almost immediately. I brought this up with Bay Sports but got no response. The strap on the other side was also poorly stitched and seems to have fallen off. Also, ignore any images of the bag being worn as a back pack ! It is so large you would need to have it lowered on to your back like a suit of armour - but it does have wheels. Also, I wouldn’t trust the straps.For the price, some of the components are pretty cheap (the pump is functioning well but is hardly robust) but the overall experience has been great. We are looking forward to be able to pack it into the car and explore waterways further afield than our 5km zone when lockdown ends.”
“This is an excellent product, after the first couple of outings we improved our attempts and timings to pump it up and get it ready for the water, and then put it back in the bag afterwards, not a problem at all. In fact I think after a few more outings (lock down permitting), we will nail it!
The kayak lives up to the description on the website, it glides beautifully through the water and is very rigid and stable. We love it!”
“As seniors, we found that this tandem kayak was a great buy. Lightweight, easy to pump up and fold up and carry in the car. It handles quite well and the booster seats are great, with no backache.”
“the instructions were simple and very helpful. Takes no time to inflate. Very happy with the quality of the kayak. Small problem with the carry bag but haven't contacted Bay Sports about it yet. It is a breeze to paddle once you get used to the stability of the kayak. Overall extremely happy with the product.”

“Being 67 years old was a bit worried that my wife and I might find it all to hard . Not only did we have no problem inflating and setting up the kayak, on the water we found it be stable and glided through the water.
Very Happy”
