Nice suggestion! I decided to order one, so I'll let you know how it works out. If I like this one, I think I will then order the tandem model. That way, Sue and I can decide on a whim if we want to tandem or solo! Both should be easily stored in the boat.I've heard good things about those Sea Eagles, FWIW. Sister has one she paddles around Detroit yacht club.
I was looking at the SUP also. Are you talking about the Sea Eagle brand or some other?I got Cindy a 11 foot inflatable SUP to keep on board that she loves. It is not nearly as stable as her rigid board but stores in the boat easily. We have had more laughs watching friends try to use it.
I fly fish off of it in the evening. Talk about a core workout, keeping my balance while casting is a real trick. I have gotten wet more than once doing that.

Couldn't help myself.Best part is...she is off exploring.
I ordered the 330 Pro Solo. I consider it a trial. If I like it, I think I will get another and it would be the 370 for a little extra length that Sue and I could use tandem if we want. That would give us plenty of flexibility. If I really like the 330, I will consider the 385 and possibly set it up for motoring. We'll see how it goes!Scott,which model did you order?
Nice review and I would concur with your thoughts. Before ordering, I checked with the following review to verify that the Sea Eagle would be my choice.As some of you will remember: my wife and I spend Jan--April every year fishing the Colorado river in Arizona. We have owned inflatable kayaks for 15 years or so and have Express Element kayaks at the present (Amazon). We own both a 1 and 2 man unit. These are nice kayaks and about 5 years old. Electric pump makes prep easy. The quality varies with each brand so be careful. 13th year fishing the Colorado this next Jan.
I must inform all that Sea Eagles are not well regarded as they are not very rigid and sit too high out of the water. Your center of gravity on those style seats is high and that is not good as well. You want the boat around you not below you. Chief
