The Sevylor Colorado is made of 18-gauge PVC that is carefully coated onto a nylon fabric base. It comes with a magnificent 1000D fabric hull. The outside is fully covered in sturdy 870D fabric that is meant to protect it from any jagged tree branches, abrasions from a nylon rope, and ruptures from fish hooks. It has independent chambers that ensure you stay afloat in case one side gets ruptured. The hull floor that uses a double I-beam make ensures that the kayak remains stable and doesn’t sag. Safety

The Sevylor Colorado is easy to inflate and deflate and can be stored in small places, making it a convenient option if you want to experience paddling but live in an apartment. Sevylor Colorado fishing is another target demographic; this versatile inflatable provides a good option for those looking to experience kayak angling on a budget—and makes an excellent choice for adults looking to go fishing with a child. Comfort Take a paddling safety course from the American Canoe Association (ACA), your local paddling shop or outfitter, or other reputable source.In general (that is, before Covid-19 put a premium on outdoor equipment) the typical starting point for a used Sevylor kayak in moderate condition was about half its retail price. All that’s changed in the wake of boat shortages brought on by the pandemic, but you can use it as a starting point in haggling a fair price. Take a boating safety course from the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, U.S. Power Squadrons® or your own state’s boating agency. Sevylor inflatable kayaks are also a great choice for those with limited storage space. Sevylor kayaks are stable and easy to paddle, but don’t expect high performance, safety in exposed conditions or great comfort for long days on the water.

The Sevylor Colorado Kayak (sometimes called a canoe but there is a distinct difference between an inflatable canoe and inflatable kayak), is a 2 person inflatable boat loosely styled on a Canadian kayak or open canoe.

Sevylor Colorado StatisticsSevylor Colorado whitewater performance is reasonable, however, overall paddling is limited by the inflatable construction, which makes it slower and less responsive than hard-shell kayaks. The pump (supplied) can be inserted into the Easy Inflation valve to inflate all three chambers of the Colorado simultaneously in about five minutes. Length and paddling performance are similar, with outstanding maneuverability and limited speed. The 10’7” Tahiti tips the scales at a feather-light 25 pounds. Sevylor Hudson The Sevylor Colorado can be easily carried around by two people thanks to the four ergonomic handles (one in the front, the rear as well as on both sides). White Water The downside to inflatable kayaks is, of course, that you have to inflate it first. This can be a bit of a pain, especially if you’re in a hurry.

Both brands offer similar performance characteristics and both are meant for use in sheltered, calm water and on gentle rivers with class II whitewater or less. Of course, the trade-off of a wider, shorter kayak is ease of paddling; you’ll want to use a long kayak paddle (more than 230 cm in length) to be able to reach the water—or choose a canoe paddle instead. The flat bottom also limits the Sevylor Colorado’s speed and glide. The Sevylor Colorado skeg is essential to keep the boat going straight and make paddling less frustrating on deep, flatwater.
