[Amazon Canada] Intex Challenger K1 Kayak ~$65.00

Deal Link:: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00177J4JS/ref ... lAb3E4PK5S
Price:: 64

Really good price for this kayak it's the one seater not two seater. Near the all time low price which was around 60$

Edit: price going back up looks like they raised after few orders were made. Can't keep changing the price. Don't know how hot you will consider this deal but it's not far off from all time low price.

I have a challenger 2 person, and they are great. Would not recommend the Intex Explorer K2 as I found it to be much slower and not as balanced as the challenger.

No problem it works really well I tried in in rough waters during the summer and had no problems. Just make sure you get a life jacket if you plan to go far to deep waters.

Do you know if they're slower than the normal non inflatable plastic kayaks? I've heard these inflatable ones are much slower, even the Challenger version. Thanks

Don't have much experience with plastic kayaks but I had no problem going fast. They're really light and don't need much to get you going.

Were they wearing a life jacket? I purposely tried to flip the kayak over and easily slipped out of it. I was also able to get back on after a few tries while I was in the water. But life jacket is a must even if you're an experienced swimmer.

You could drown in any sort of boat or floating device.... what does this have to do with the deal?

No you cannot, at least not without modifications (which wouldn't be worth it anyways). If you want to mount a trolling motor to an inflatable, you need to go with their Seahawk series of inflatables:
https://www.amazon.ca/Intex-Seahawk-2-P ... B006IXB73C

They include the motor mounts as well as rod holders. I'd think about getting one in the future....maybe a Seahawk 3 or 4.

*RFD - once you're in there's no getting out.*

*If you wanna buy something, wait for it! Eventually RFD will post it and something in your pants will feel awesome that you waited: your wallet.*
