Sea Eagle Kayaks
October 2, 2009 by IK World
Sea Eagle is an inflatable boat manufacturing company that has been in business for over 40 years. Their company is about as solid and long lasting as the boats they design and manufacture.
They have three different types of inflatable kayaks, all of which are some of the absolute best selling models on the market. Their kayaks are designed to last and to provide a great combination of functionality, 
convenience and a lot of fun. They are hugely popular and for good reason Sea Eagle is one of my favorite inflatable kayak companies.
Sea Eagle kayaks are unique in that they can paddle well on both flatwater as well as whitewater. The Explorer kayaks can handle whitewater with up to class IV rapids. These boats are impressive and come with a rock solid guarantee.
Below are the 6 Models of Sea Eagle Kayaks…
- Sea Eagle 330 Sport Kayak – This is the smaller sport model. It is a tandem model but seats can be adjusted for solo as well. Basic in design, this kayak is self-bailing and extremely lightweight.
- Sea Eagle 370 Sport Kayak – The 370 is slightly larger than the 330 and much more comfortable for two people. Good for beginner to novice kayakers.
- Sea Eagle 340 Explorer Kayak – The smallest of the explorer kayaks, this model is unbelievably rugged, solid, fun and perfect for extreme whitewater fun or flatwater paddling.
- Sea Eagle 380 Explorer Kayak – The 380X explorer kayak offers more room for two people and a huge load capacity. Can handle all water conditions.
- Sea Eagle 420 Explorer Kayak – Largest of the explorer kayaks, excellent for families, dogs, or long expeditions. Massive load capacity.
Sea Eagle Paddleski – Very unique in design, this kayak can be used for paddling, rowing, fishing, or motoring. Extreme versatility and great performance.
Why are Sea Eagle Kayaks so Special?
There are five main reasons that Sea Eagle inflatable kayaks are among the best selling out there.
- They all come with an excellent 3 year warranty
- Sea Eagle kayaks are all self-bailing and can perform well in many different water conditions
- Their kayaks are extremely solid and have been tested over and over by slamming the sharp end of a hammer into them… with absolutely no punctures
- Their kayaks are functional as well as very affordable
- Sea Eagle is known for being a phenomenal inflatable boat company with a reputation for excellent customer service and great boats
Sea Eagle Kayak Material
The Sea Eagle sport kayaks are made with extra thick 33 mil PolyKrylar and I-Beam construction floor for extra rigidity. For a base model, these kayaks are superb quality and can take a real beating.
The Explorer kayaks are made with 1000 denier polyester-supported high pressure fabric with quadruple thickness electronic welded seams. That means that these kayaks have such thick and rugged material that they will likely last you a lifetime.
The Paddleski is made with 1100 Decitex reinforced seam, a quadruple overlap seam floor and a 2000 denier reinforced material air valves.
Being in business for over 40 years mean that Sea Eagle knows what they are doing. Their inflatable kayaks are built to last and to be able to handle practically any situation. Their materials are solid.
Are there any negatives to Sea Eagle Kayaks?
Admittedly I am a big fan of Sea Eagle inflatable kayaks… especially their explorer kayaks. These kayaks are solid and they are extremely functional. If I had to point out a couple of negatives I would say that they are not the fastest kayaks on the market and the tracking could be a bit better.
Final Thoughts on Sea Eagle Kayaks…
I find the sport kayaks to be a bit basic but great for newbies who want a very affordable and compact kayak to start out with. The explorer kayaks and the paddleski are great for all different types of adventures including camping, traveling, expeditions, whitewater paddling, flatwater recreation, families, dogs, fishing, etc. You name it, these inflatable kayaks will can do it. They are not the absolute best performance wise, but they do paddle well and are excellent quality for the money paid. I would highly recommend them.
