Overview

The Sandbanks Optimal Single Seater is an inflatable, drop-stitch kayak that truly excels on the water and is designed to feel just like a solid kayak, without compromising performance.

The Optimal Single will help inspire confidence with a balanced rocker profile for speed on the flat and manoeuvrability in whitewater. The V-shaped hull is designed for stability and also helps the Optimal cut through the water effortlessly making it ideal for ocean, river and lake paddling. The rounded stern sheds water easily, making it forgiving in moving water. There are luggage straps at the front and rear so it has plenty of room for dry bags and gear for your day on the water.  

The Optimal kayak comes with one removable deluxe kayak seat with more back support, a 4-piece paddle & a new, improved wheel bag as well as a removable skeg to add speed and stability. 

The optimal is available as a single or double seater.

What makes Sandbanks full drop stitch kayaks different to traditional inflatable kayaks?

Inflatable kayaks have come a long way since the traditional models with low pressure chambers & large tubular sides made from weak materials. Our full dropstitch inflatable kayaks are so rigid that you won't believe that they are inflatable!

Rigid like a solid: The drop stitch materials which we build our kayaks with allow the boats to pump up to 12PSI making the them rock solid.

Extremely Durable: The materials are so strong you will struggle to puncture our kayaks. You no longer have to worry about rocks, abrasions or pet claws. We have so much confidence in them that they now come with a 5 year warranty!

Glides Effortlessly: Our kayaks are so rigid that they glide through the water like a solid kayak. No more drag caused by the kayak bending when you sit in it

Easy to inflate & Deflate: All the benefits of rigid kayak on the water but no need for roof racks or storage at home. Inflate and deflate in less than 10 minutes. What's more once you are finished paddling everything will fit back into it's wheeled rucksack bag.
