Innova Sunny Inflatable Kayak
A stable craft for flat water fun, the Innova Sunny Inflatable Kayak is ideal for exploring lakes and lazy river channels. Although it folds down to a compact size equivalent to a bag that meets airline carry-on restrictions, when inflated it holds up to 2 people with room to spare for a child, a dog, or some camping equipment. The exterior Nitrylon material is incredibly durable, and is much more abrasion resistant than PVC. The interior of the Innova Sunny Inflatable Kayak now features a Lite-Pack material instead of Nitrylon. By using this lighter material on the interior, where abrasion resistance is not as important, the boat folds up into a more compact unit and is 12% lighter than the previous model. The Lite-Pack material is more comfortable for bare skin to sit on too. The open cockpit Innova Sunny Kayak also received a seating upgrade. Straps now connect the seat back with D-rings attached to the side tubes for better support during extended paddles. For solo exploration the Sunny kayak converts into a balanced single craft. Because the kayak is double-ended, the forward seat turns around and the tracking fin is then moved to the opposite end, allowing the solo paddler to sit in the middle of the boat.

disappointed
My Sunny just exploded. Since I bought it three years ago, I've had periodic trouble. First, the handles pulled off (the glue softened in the sun). Then I tore a 3 inch gash in it by scraping it against my garage door. Patched that, then had another slow leak I couldn't find. Then it exploded (popped) along the seam. One other thing I didn't like was that small waves (12 inches would fill it it with water).
