I wanted a good quality inflatable kayak compact enough to fit in the boot of my coupé-shape car, with excellent performance on the water. Read some online reviews, saw the Explorer being recommended, saw it came with carrying bag, pump and paddle included and that it folded small enough for my needs. Weighs under 16kg all folded up so manageable for a short walk from the car park. Pumps up in 15-20 minutes. Very stable, loads of room - I use mine for collecting rubbish from local waterways and it’s perfect for carrying lots of bags, easy to paddle, and robust enough not to puncture if it bumps into sharp edges. Deflates & folds up in under 10 minutes, dries quickly. I’d happily get another if I needed two. Only negative if that the instruction leaflet didn’t state clearly how to set to the inflation valves to correct setting do that it doesn’t deflate when you disconnect the pump.
