Features

  • Upgraded Features: Additional storage in this tandem kayak includes quick lock hatch and a tank well equipped with bungee cords. It's also equipped with molded footrests, two bottle holders and four accessory eyelets for your convenience.
  • Stable: The twin-arched multi-chine hull offers excellent stability giving you a secure and steady ride. It also makes it incredibly easy to get in and out of the kayak.
  • Safe: Our unique manufacturing process allows us to include additional flotation inside the hull of all of our sit-on-tops in order to meet or surpass ABYC standards. Holds a maximum capacity of 500 lb. Don't worry, the added scupper holes at the bottom of the kayak are completely safe and help drain any excess water that might get into your watercraft. Along with a flat hull type design, it ensures you peace of mind during your ride.
  • Comfortable: The adjustable ERGOFIT G2seating system is specially designed with thicker ergonomic padding to provide targeted cushioning and better air flow. An additional molded middle seat provides enough room for any small child, pet, or extra gear you might want to bring with you.
  • Lightweight: Our kayaks being made with exceptionally durable high molecular density polyethylene, less material is needed to produce each boat. Weighing 73 lb, this tandem kayak is lighter than our competitors which makes it easier to transport.

  • I am super happy this is a great Kayak!
Pattern Name: Tandem Kayak
This is the first kayak I purchased. I was a little worried because it was so cheap compared to other tandem kayaks. We had been shopping around for awhile. I could not be any happier with this purchase. It is awesome. So much room and it’s comfortable. Looks great. Very stable and easy to paddles. The only thing is it didn’t mention if it came with paddles and one review said he was pleasantly surprised that he received paddles so I did not buy any. My kayak did not come with paddles. I didn’t even mind because the deal was great. I definitely recommend this kayak. ... show more

  • Great for multiple kids, it's huge, though
Pattern Name: Tandem Kayak
These are really great value for the price. We have two-I take two kids and my husband takes two kids. It's a big upgrade from two tandem inflatables with the same people since the second kid can sit in the center molded seat. I'd probably never pay the price of other similar-style kayaks, but maybe that's because I just don't know what I'm missing. We were able to tow a youth kayak easily when one of the kids got too tired to paddle herself along. Towing definitely slows you down, but still totally doable. Things you should know: -middle kid probably isn't laying down in the center if they are tired because the seat molding makes it impossible to lay there. Probably not an issue for most, but when my son was younger he'd take a quick nap in our lap in the inflatables. -There are no bags in the hull. We thought about attaching a command hook or something to throw a bag in there, but honestly, we didn't really need anything stored inside anyway. We had one backpack and 3 64 oz water jugs on the back of one kayak and the backpack with 6 bento boxes on the other, and just put anything that couldn't get wet in ziplocks inside the backpack. -It's really, really big. our kayak racks are supposed to hold up to 4 kayaks. That'll never happen. The hull makes them just so thick it's not possible. We can easily transport two, but that's it. We strap two youth kayaks to a metal basket that attaches to the hitch. -paddle not included -one person is not getting this on top of a vehicle alone. My husband is 6'5" and still needs me to help lift it on and hold it til he gets the first strap in place -inspect the kayak right away. (TLDR-look for scupper damage and get a replacement right away if you see any) We bought two at a lower than normal price in October, before we even had a kayak rack to transport them. By the time we got the rack it was too cold to take the kids out, so the first time we actually put them in water was Memorial Day. After about five minutes we realized one was taking on water, and fast. Lucked out that we discovered it near a semi-shore and dumped the water out of the hull and just assumed we had forgotten to plug up the drain hole on the back of the kayak. But then realized that wasn't the issue once we got back on the water. Again, thankfully I was close enough to where we started that I managed to get back to the pier without sinking, but it was a close call. Turns out there was scupper damage in the back scupper and that dry storage was just filling with water. Pelican declared it eligible for a warranty coverage, but said Amazon handles the replacements-but it was out of stock. It took some long phone calls, but we finally managed to get a refund and then when it came back in stock they refunded the difference in what the new cost was compared to the original payment. The new one and the second from the first purchase are both perfect. Upon looking at the damaged one some more, we think we just got a bad one as it's banged up in other areas, too. Would definitely purchase again if we could transport or store 3. ... show more

  • Great for residential lake use
Pattern Name: Tandem Kayak
I have several other Kayaks, all sit-in type, and this is my first sit-on-top. Got it for self and grandkids on our small lakes behind the house. It's a very good size for an adult plus one or two (molded seat area between the regular seats). A little less stable than sit-in kayaks, but that's normal, and this is very stable and easy to handle on still water. A good solid recreational boat by a good boat maker. Got scratched during shipping but not worth worrying about for the reasonable price I paid. ... show more

  • Mayden Voyage was almost my last
Pattern Name: Tandem Kayak
*"Cosmetic imperfections" on the kayak & packaging was listed as damaged. *No one stated that there are two huge slits (gouges) by the seams on each side- unseeable upon inspection. After 1hr of padding out from shore in the Kayak, the kayak started to sink. Had to jump off & swim w/kayak back to shore. Once at the shore, I lifted the compartment and saw all the water inside. Needs 2b plastic welded. Cosmetic imperfections is minor and can be fixed easily. The description should mention that there are two slits in the kayak and needs to be repaired prior to kayaking. ... show more

  • Wanted to love it
Pattern Name: Tandem Kayak
The good, it's easy for two people to use, and easy for one person to use if sitting in the middle section (I just attached another seat in the middle). The storage size is also really good. I used this solo in in Gulf when I went island camping. Things I didn't like, the seats can't be removed, which was annoying if using it solo. The hatches don't come with bags and you can't buy bags after the fact. I contacted Pelican and they said the deck hatches are so you can do maintenance on the inside. The hatches themselves are a weird size, so I had to spend $55 for two replacement 9" deck plate hatch covers so I could use bags, or else stuff is going to slide everywhere in there. Then the biggest killer which caused me to return it, the plastic under the front seat would bend down after my wife (under 130lbs) would sit in it, while using it. The plastic was just too weak to support weight the way it was designed. ... show more
