Frequently Asked Questions
Is this kayak suitable for ocean / saltwater?
Thank you for your interest in Sea Eagle Boats. You most certainly can use all our inflatables in salt water, and our Explorer kayaks are rated for up to Class IV rapids, so it works very well in the ocean, up to the equivalent of class IV rapids.
Does the paddle float?
Yes it does.
I see everywhere this kayak is rated for class iv rapids.... by who? what organization?
Class 4 white water rating and all Sea Eagle kayak class ratings are determined by Sea Eagle Boats, Inc. an entity with well over 50+ years of kayak manufacturing and design experience. You may also like to know that by purchasing from 'ehome' on Amazon, an authorized Amazon Sea Eagle dealer since 2013, the famous Sea Eagle 3-year warranty is also valid.

Durable for fishing ?
I don't see why not. It's rated for class 4 whitewater. We have used ours more on the Colorado River than on flat water. Not sure what conditions you fish, but I have found the Explorer to be durable and stable.
