Love light weight tandem ksysk

"Truly best kayak I have owned. Very lightweight and love magna pods"

— Robin S. (5/5)

Super stable and comfortable

"We own hard shell kayaks at home and purchased the boat for travelling. We were pleasantly surprised that the Bote is much more stable in the water than the hard shell. . . easier to get in and out of and really comfortable. Very happy with the Bote."

— Craig H. (5/5)

Best inflatable kayak

"I have dealt with a few other inflatable kayaks, and this one easily beats them. From its super light weight design to its stability in the water. This kayak is so easy to use that I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for high quality inflatable equipment."

— Brian H. (5/5)

Care + Storage
  1. Rinse off With Clean Water After each Use
    Rinsing off residue, debris, and salt water from your Aero will ensure it stays looking new for years to come. A damp cloth or Magic Eraser will also safely remove any dirt or scuffs that may have occurred while in use. 
  2. Store In A Cool, Dry Place
    When storing your Aero rolled, let it dry completely before rolling back into the bag. Always store your Aero in a cool, dry place or a shady area out of reach of direct sunlight, to avoid weakening or fading of colors.
  3. Keep Out Of Direct Sunlight When Not In Use
    Over time, the sun can both weaken the material and seams and increases the pressure beyond its design limits. If your Aero is out of the water and not in use, move it to a shady place out of direct sunlight.
  4. Reduce PSI When Not In Use
    If you must leave your Aero out of the water and in direct sunlight or choose to store it partially inflated, reduce pressure until the board is compressible by hand.
