Thread: Advanced elements vs Stearns kayaks

    Default Advanced elements vs Stearns kayaks

    Hi guys, thought I'd throw this out in cyberspace...
    Been looking at 2 very similar boats in the 10 1/2 foot range - both inflatables, that in many ways appear similar - does anyone have experiences with either?
    thx

    No experience with those kayaks but I thought I'd pass along some information I found while surfing. Yakka has two types (Yakka & Yakkair) of semi-rigid kayaks in various models. They're sold in the US through http://www.bicsportkayaks.com/produc...r-one,775.html.

    Good luck in your search.

    I used to have a Innova K-2, rated for Class 5+ rapids. I didn't like inflatables, so I sold it and got a SIT Kayak and a Mad River Canoe. I'm way happier now.

    Inflatables do not track or manuever well (IMO), and can be punctured by a bluegill or catfish spine. Not to mention hooks.
