Kayak/Inflatable Boat Crossover - KaBoat. Patent Pending.
This
new
and revolutionary product, is a crossover between an inflatable kayak and an inflatable boat -
KaBoat! It can be used as a regular kayak, just paddling anywhere you want, ocean, bay, river or lake. If you get tired, use
an electric or gas engine installed on marine grade plywood transom.
Use it as an inflatable boat with an outboard engine. Takes up to
a 10 HP gas engine! If the battery
charge or gas is low, then use it as a kayak to paddle to your destination. New for 2009, all KaBoats are now
come with
rowing oars!
Extremely
portable, will fit in a medium size bag. Now you can go on vacation and take
this portable KaBoat with you along with an optional small electric or gas engine.
The main benefit
is that if you will get tired paddling, then you can use the engine to get back ashore.

The KaBoat's
exceptionally stable design allows you to stand, fly fish or even get into those
narrow spots where other boats can't go to get the best fishing. The KaBoat is
also excellent as a dinghy for a yacht or sailboat.
It's aluminum seats provide excellent support and can be customized by installing folding
fishing chairs with a swivel base or canoe seats to provide additional back
support for long trips.
Benefits of KaBoat VS. conventional
Kayak or Inflatable Boat:
- Conventional plastic or fiberglass kayaks require
significant storage space due to their large dimensions. KaBoats can
be deflated and folded for easy storage and transportation.
- Kayaks can be only paddled, but the KaBoat allows you
to use a small gas or electric engine to cover larger distances. If
you get tired of paddling, you can start using an optional outboard
engine.
- KaBoats are much more stable than conventional
kayaks, allowing for standing and walking inside the KaBoat. In fact,
you can fish standing or even ride while standing.
- The KaBoat can be used for diving, snorkeling, and
fishing, however not many conventional kayaks can offer similar
functionality.
- Due to the high buoyancy of its inflatable tubes, the
KaBoat can transport a much larger cargo than regular kayaks.
- KaBoat allows you to go to narrow or shallow places
where regular inflatable boats will not fit. Just raise the engine and
paddle anywhere that is at least 5" deep.
- Due to its smaller chambers, it is much easier and
faster to inflate a KaBoat than a regular inflatable boat.
- Because of its narrow profile and a much lower drag
than wide conventional inflatable boats, KaBoats can go faster with
the same rated engine than comparable size inflatable boats.
- KaBoats can also be used as a dinghy to a yacht or
sailboat, but take up much less space when deflated and folded.
KaBoats also can be placed on a swimming platforms.
- KaBoats cost much less than any inflatable dinghies
and most kayaks available today.
| Recent Customer Review of
KaBoat SK430 |
| "We received our boat last week and were able to test drive it over the
weekend and we were totally impressed. The delivery was prompt, the product was excellent... even the bag is big enough so that everything fits in it when it's folded up. We bought it specifically to go camping with since we pull a small camping trailer we needed something portable to go in our van. We found that it fit very well on top of our mini-van when it was blown up so once we get to our camping spot we can go to various lakes in the area and not have to deflate and inflate every time.
One thing, drip rings might be a nice addition for your paddles...lake water in Michigan in April is mighty cold! We did buy some drip rings locally.
This is the 3rd raft that I've owned... the first two had the wooden floors - a Sevylor and a Sea Eagle and the air floor is much easier to deal with and pack and it's quite solid... we did buy some outdoor carpeting to put over it (we have a dog). Thanks for putting out such a great product at a reasonable price." |
