The Aqua Marina Tomahawk is a high pressure drop-stitch inflatable kayak built for one paddler. It uses Drop Stitch Light Technology which makes the hull rigid once inflated. This gives it a stiffness closer to a hard-shell kayak than most inflatables manage.
At just 16.6kg it's roughly 40% lighter than a traditional hard canoe of similar size. That matters if you're carrying it to the water alone. The 375cm length and extra-long waterline help it move faster and track straighter than shorter inflatable kayaks.
Three separate air chambers mean a puncture in one section won't sink the whole kayak. There's also a V-shaped inflatable keel under the bow and stern for improved directional stability. It carries a 128kg weight capacity and packs down into a backpack with the seat, pump and fins included.
It's narrower than wide leisure kayaks so it feels less stable at first. Reviewers note that with a few outings your balance improves quickly. It's not designed to be impossible to tip, but it rewards a bit of practice with better speed and tracking than wider beginner kayaks.
The maximum weight capacity is 128kg. This includes the paddler plus any gear you bring along such as a dry bag or fishing equipment.
It weighs 16.6kg on its own. This is around 40% lighter than a similar-sized hard-shell canoe, so one person can usually carry it to the water without help.
You get the kayak itself, two removable central fins, a cushioned seat, a double action high pressure pump and a carry bag that doubles as a backpack.
The skegs slot into grooves under the hull. Some owners find them stiff to fit and remove. Using a small block of wood as a soft mallet to tap them in and out makes the job easier.
The Tomahawk has three separate air chambers rather than one. If a puncture affects one chamber the other two stay inflated, keeping you afloat while you head back to shore.
Yes. One reviewer used it on the sea in low to moderate wave conditions for around two-hour sessions. The V-shaped keel helps with tracking in open water conditions.
Drop stitch fabric has thousands of threads connecting the top and bottom panels internally. This allows the kayak to be inflated to a much higher pressure than standard inflatables, giving a rigid, stable platform rather than a soft, wobbly one.
