ABSTRACT:
Inflatable kayak having a pneumatically inflatable peripheral tube with elongated side sections which come together fore and aft to form a passenger compartment, a flexible cover encasing the tube and forming a shell against which the tube can be inflated to form a relatively rigid structure. A sheet of tarpaulin material extends across the bottom of the passenger compartment and along the lower and outer sides of the tube, and an inflatable floor cushion rests on the tarpaulin material in the passenger compartment. A seat is provided toward the rear of the passenger compartment, and a splash skirt attached to the cover extends across the passenger compartment between the side sections of the tube in front of the seat.
