I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Sevylor Big Basin Kayak

Sevylor Big Basin Kayak

Description

Take your family on their next water adventure in the Sevylor Big Basin 3-Person Kayak. The heavy-duty PVC construction and rugged tarpaulin bottom makes it ready for anything from a calm lake to easy whitewater. Just in case you do hit a snag while you're out there, the multiple air chambers will help you get back to shore. The adjustable seats make the ride more comfortable no matter how far you explore, while the spray covers help keep you dry during your trip.

Heavy-duty PVC construction is rugged for lake use

Tarpaulin bottom provides durable protection from punctures

Multiple air chambers allow another chamber to stay inflated if one is punctured

Boston Valve is double threaded for easy inflation/deflation

Adjustable seats move to fit you; Carry handles make it easy to carry in and out of the water

Spray covers block splashes to help keep you dry

Fits three people

Can you tell me what the inflated dimensions are? Sevylor states the dimensions of this kayak are 12 ft. 3 in. x 3 ft. 1 in. After using it twice now, these seem to be very accurate. We do not use it for three persons, only two. It has plenty of room for myself (6'00") and my wife who is 5'07". It's very steady in the water and tracks suprising well.

How strong is this against Shak bite, Crocodile bite? This is an inflatable kayak that is not meant to fend off crocodile bites. No kayak will stand up to a shark if he has his mind set on eating you...even a hard shell.

Does this include the pump? I assume that there are no paddles with the price. No pump, no paddles. Quality construction. I recommend this pump. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003659RYQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1407815537&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

what is total length? Honestly I did not measure while it was blown up. For fishing it is only good for two people. For KayakING fine for three. Seat do move . Found it good for the money.

Things we like

  • A hull with a wide, flat bottom is remarkably stable.
  • Each of the three chairs may be adjusted to any position and removed entirely.
  • Lightweight and can be compressed into a tiny space.
  • It can accommodate one, two, or three kayakers at a time.
  • Affordable pricing point

Things we don't like

  • Due to its low weight capacity, it is typically unable to accommodate three persons.
  • Tracking is made more difficult by shorter lengths.
