Oceanbroad Inflatable Sit-In Kayak (Blue, 13.5ft, 2 Seats)

Inflatable Tandem Kayak

From: Oceanbroad

The Oceanbroad Inflatable sit-in kayak is a tandem kayak built for two adults who want a stable, comfortable ride on calm water. It measures 4.21m long and 0.9m wide when packed, but inflates to 4.18m x 0.9m with a weight capacity of 139.7kg. The drop-stitch floor gives it more rigidity than standard I-beam designs, so the base stays flat and firm under load.

Built from heavy duty PVC vinyl, the hull has a 3-chamber construction for added safety. If one chamber loses pressure, the others keep you afloat. Halkey-Roberts valves make inflation and deflation quick and they hold pressure well without leaking.

Comfort comes from padded EVA seats with back support and adjustable footrests. A removable directional fin improves tracking and the kit includes two 220cm paddles, a hand pump, repair kit and carry bag. Everything packs down for easy transport.

Product Features

Drop-stitch floor construction - This design uses thousands of internal threads connecting the top and bottom layers of the floor. It creates a rigid flat surface that holds its shape under weight, unlike softer I-beam floors that can sag or flex during paddling. 3-chamber safety design - The kayak hull is split into three separate air chambers rather than one single chamber. If a puncture happens in one section, the other two chambers still hold air, keeping the kayak afloat and giving paddlers time to reach shore safely. Halkey-Roberts valves - These valves are a standard used in professional inflatable watercraft. They allow fast one-way inflation and deflation, hold pressure firmly during use and rarely leak. This means less time pumping and more time on the water.

Padded EVA seating - Each seat uses EVA foam padding that supports the lower back during long paddling sessions. Combined with adjustable footrests, paddlers can sit in a relaxed position rather than straining muscles over hours on the water. Removable directional fin - Fitted underneath the hull, this fin helps the kayak travel in a straight line rather than drifting sideways. Removing it makes the kayak easier to manoeuvre in shallow water or when launching from a beach. Portable folding design - Once deflated, the kayak folds down small enough to fit in the included duffel bag along with the paddles and seats. This means no roof rack is needed and the kayak can be carried on foot to remote launch spots.

FAQs

How many people can this kayak carry?

This kayak is designed for two people. It has a weight capacity of 139.7kg (308lbs) when inflated, which covers two adults plus some gear such as a small cooler or dry bag.

How long does it take to inflate?

Using the included hand pump takes roughly 20 minutes. Owners who buy a separate electric pump report inflation times closer to 5 minutes. The Halkey-Roberts valves make either method straightforward.

What is the kayak made from?

The hull is made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a heavy duty vinyl material chosen for its resistance to punctures and abrasion. The floor uses drop-stitch construction for extra rigidity.

Is this kayak suitable for rough water or whitewater?

No. This kayak is built for calm water such as lakes, ponds and slow-moving rivers. Performance drops in wind above 16kph (10mph) and the material may wear faster against sharp rocks in whitewater conditions.

What is included in the box?

The package includes the inflatable kayak, two 220cm paddles, two seats, two footrests, one directional fin, a repair kit with patches and a wrench and a hand pump. A carry bag is also included for storage and transport.

How heavy is the kayak and can one person carry it?

The kayak weighs 23.4kg (51.7lbs). When deflated and packed into the duffel bag, it is light enough for one adult to carry over their shoulder for reasonable distances, such as from a car park to a launch point.

Does it track well in a straight line?

With the directional fin fitted, tracking is good for a kayak in this category. Without the fin, the kayak becomes harder to keep straight and loses some speed. Removing the fin does help in shallow water though.

How do I clean and store the kayak after use?

The floor is detachable, which makes rinsing out sand, mud or water straightforward. After cleaning, deflate the kayak fully, dry it off, then fold it back into the carry bag. Full deflation and packing typically takes around 20 minutes.
