I have paddled both sit-on and sit-in Kayaks off the coast of Cornwall for the past 15 years, but now I am looking to take my paddling internationally, to the Med! and have been looking for a easily portable solution. The Wave Navigator interested me because of it's drop stitch design and solo / double paddling options. On my maiden voyage I found the boat extremely easy to assemble & pack away (with great bag space!). While the boat was not quite as quick and manoverable as my sit in, it was close and easily the best inflatable I have used. With a moderate head wind and incoming tide, I found the Wave Navigator tracked well (without the fins), the seating position and comfort was good and led to a great experience. I would recommend anyone looking for a portable / inflactable boat to consider the Wave. Great work Team!

After much research and deliberation on inflatable kayaks we bought a navigator 3.0. So chuffed with the purchase, we ordered and it was delivered literally the next day which was an unexpected surprise! Very well designed and made with resilient and hardwearing materials. We’ve taken it on river and sea and it handles both types of paddling beautifully! Feels safe and stable even when one of us is getting in and out. Tracks true like an absolute dream and love the Velcro ore holders, very convenient. So comfortable we did 3-4 hours but could have easily done more, most kayaks make my back hurt almost immediately but not with these supported padded seats. Very easy to inflate and deflate, with an oversized bag so it’s easy to get the kayak away quickly and we store and carry our buoyancy aids in it as well - bonus! Lots of storage space on-board for personal belongings. 10/10 highly recommend, we got ours with the discount so I’m over the moon, such good value for money we absolutely love it!

It is nice and lightweight, feels solid sturdy and well made. The shaped bow cuts the water nicely improving hull speed and efficiency, I don’t think it needs both of the skegs, the rear one alone was enough for me, it tracks and turns better than my very expensive other inflatable kayak.

After much deliberation and research on inflatable kayaks, we decided to buy a navigator 3.0 2 seater and are over the moon with our purchase! It arrived the next day after ordering and we have taken it on two trips since for over 3 hours - the seats are incredibly comfortable and we could happily be in it for longer. The set up and pack down is rapid and straightforward and the bag is oversized too, makes packing it away easy with extra room to store and carry your buoyancy aids. We have taken the kayak out on the river and sea, it handles both scenarios perfectly and tracks like an absolute dream! It is very robust and made from very resilient materials and well constructed. Feels very safe and secure, even when one of us is getting out and easy to carry between 2. Very pleased that the 3.0 model has Velcro ore holders as I’ve heard the plastic ones on the previous model are a bit inconvenient when paddling. Overall I would give this kayak 10/10 and highly recommend - especially with the discount you will not be disappointed!

Recently purchased a Navigator 3.0 Inflatable Kayak, I am really impressed with this kayak the ordering process was really simple and the delivery was super quick (within a few days) the kayak is top quality it looks great and feels really robust, the drop stitch design makes the kayak feel really sturdy (not like other inflatables I have had before) Tracking is great on the water and a pleasure to paddle, Would definitely recommend this kayak if you are in the market for an inflatable kayak

This is my 3rd Wave purchase, we have 2 paddle boards and now the Navigator. I wasn’t expecting the kayak to be delivered so soon as it appeared to be on back order. The package arrived just a couple of days after my order was placed. We took the kayak out for its maiden set up/voyage on Sunday. I will admit that I set the seats and foot rests totally the wrong way round, only realising when I tuned the boat over to insert the fins! A little help with boat direction might have been helpful? Once set up, the kayak is very sturdy and stable in the water. We put in at Horstead mill, Coltishall, where the mill water was running pretty fast. The kayak was not upset by the fast flowing water, remaining steady and easy to navigate through to the gentle flow if the river. My wife, who is sometimes a little nervous on the water, remained relaxed and confident in the craft. We only paddled a couple of miles but the seat and feet positions were comfortable, just a small amount of water ingress down the paddles, into the boat. Maybe the paddles are a tiny bit short? There is plenty of room to store equipment, if a longer trip is desirable. Inflation and deflation were fast with an electric pump, although the kayak is a big lump to handle in and out of the huge carry bag. Overall we are super pleased with the purchase and will get some great use out of it this summer. Thanks Wave for your great customer service.
