Aire Tributary Tomcat Tandem Inflatable Kayak Teal, One Size

A budget-friendly craft that doesn't show it, the Aire Tributary Tomcat Tandem Inflatable Kayak is our ideal entry-level boat that's chock-full of high-tech, performance-driven features. Constructed with a tough-as-nails PVC vinyl, the Tomcat has a mildly rockered, three-chambered hull to give you agile control on the river while still tracking exceptionally well on calm, flat water. It comes standard with two inflatable seats for you to get into some whitewater with a friend, but also is easily paddled by yourself when you'd rather go solo and load up on extra gear for multi-day trips. High-quality Summit II valves make the usually tiresome task of inflation and deflation a breeze, and the self-bailing floor with mesh drain holes lets water escape easily when the waves start getting a bit bold. A multitude of cargo loops and some D-rings help you easily attach dry bags, thigh straps, and other gear, while the sturdy handles at the bow and stern give you a comfortable carry from the water to your car, and vice versa.
