Now let's address some frequently asked questions about the Sea Eagle Inflatable 420X Explorer Kayak Pro Carbon Package:
The tube diameter of the 420X is 11 1/2", which is 2 inches more than the Fast Track 385. This larger tube diameter makes the Explorer kayaks better in waves, as they are designed to handle whitewater and rougher conditions.
If you're looking to bring along a young child, you can absolutely add an extra seat to accommodate them. While the seats that come with the kayak are comfortable, they can be pricey for a third seat. Many users have opted for a cheaper alternative like a Coleman stadium seat and secured it to the boat with carabiners.
Yes, the Sea Eagle Inflatable 420X Explorer Kayak Pro Carbon Package includes all the essentials. It comes with two AB50 carbon fiber shaft paddles with fiberglass reinforced nylon resin blades, two tall back seats for added comfort, a kayak carry bag for easy transportation, an auto dual-action pump for quick inflation, two kayak stow bags for storage, a slide-in skeg for improved tracking, and a repair kit for any unforeseen issues.

What We Like
- Whitewater usage up to and including Class IV is permitted.
- Superb 855 lb weight limit
- It contains 16 self-bailing drain valves to assist in keeping you dry.
- Stability is ensured by the use of large tubes and a drop-stitched floor.
- Included in the package are 26 D-rings for securing various items.
What To Consider
- For an inflatable kayak, this is on the heavier side.If three adults are in the boat, there is not a lot of place for their legs.
01What is the tube diameter? Is it better in waves than the Fast Track 385?+
The 420x tube diameter is 11 1/2". That's 2 inches more than the 385 Fast Track. You'll probably find that the Explorer kayaks are better in waves because they are deisgned to be better in whitewater that the Fast Tracks, which are designed to be better flat water kayaks.
02can an extra seat be bought and added to use with 6 year old child?+
Definitely! The seats are very comfortable but pricey for a third seat. We opted for a cheap coleman stadium seat and just used some carabiners to secure it to the boat. Worked great for Grandma or kids riding along.
03Does it come with the paddles and storage bag?+
