2-Person Inflatable Kayak by Driftsun: Voyager Edition

MadelynMadelyn: Love the kayak. Have used 5 times with my wife, but this inflation base washer broke. I hope someone can contact me and send replacement.

Amazon Customer: I haven't had the chance to use it yet but inflated it to make sure it was ready to go. The pressure gauge never moved past 0. I'll update my review based on company response to the issue.

Jana Sjoquist: I bought the Driftsun Voyager inflatable kayak for an upcoming camping trip and we didn't want to haul the hard-sided kayaks. While it will hold two people, it would be a bit tight for anyone larger. If you like your legs straight out, it will probably be a bit cramp. However, I intentionally bought it because it is a bit shorter than some of the others and is a great size for one person. I really like how light it is. The seats are great, more comfortable than my hard side. My husband took the 2nd seat and put it in our inflatable kayak. I used my own paddle, but if you're shorter, you'll need a bit longer paddle. I'll have to take it out again and try their paddle. So, no review on the paddle. The kayak is stable and easy to steer. The pump is nice to have the pressure gage, but you'll get a little workout. As a last note, make sure that the fin has a retention pin attached by string. Mine was missing, but I didn't know that. On the first voyage, I lost the fin. Called Driftsun customer service (Market Fleet) and they were able to help out. Although they didn't have any in stop, they issued a refund which more than covered the fin. I'll definitely consider another Driftsun if we...

Pretty bad quality. I would spend the extra $40 and buy name brand.: Literally my only problem with this product is the carrying case is pretty bad, I don't think it's going to last. My roommate has the next level up version of this and it comes with a really well made carrying case.

Zech HinksonZech Hinkson: First, I would like to say that I spent a long time researching many different inflatable kayaks, and I was looking for one in which I felt safe to take my 60 lb Dalmatian. I also have used an Intex Explorer K2 without doggo. The Voyager got my pick because of the build quality and expected durability. I haven’t taken it out on the water yet, so I can’t comment on the performance or actual durability. I have only inflated/assembled everything, and I am very impressed so far. The quality, comfort, and the ease of setup and tear down are exceptional. The pump inflates very fast, and also helps remove any air left when deflating, making it easier to fold up again. It has a very nice, durable fabric cover, so I am less worried about my dog riding in it. The seats are comfortable and there is plenty of room for extra gear. One thing I have seen in other reviews, and the Q&A section, is that the bag will only hold the kayak. This is not true. The bag holds everything - kayak, seats, and paddles - except the pump. Although, I feel like I could probably fit that too if I made a better effort.

Additionally, Market Fleet has great customer service. One thing that is not...

AcornartAcornart: The media could not be loaded.  PROS: Love how it inflates and deflates quickly. The oars are nice and light. It is compact and fits into a bag so it’s good for saving cargo space. It’s light. CONS: We are presently waiting for the company to help us out with the fact that the seats do not seem to hold either my 180 pound husband or 90 pound son erect. Both of them end up lying flat after a minute in the kayak. We are hoping that Driftsun in California can help us with this before we give up and return it to Amazon. Also, the dial that tells you the correct PSI inflation does not work at all, even though we have tried many different permutations to attach it to the pump. One of the seat harness clamps ripped out of its stitching. We have used it only twice so far. The detachable rudder fell in the lake (our fault on that one) but we can’t see where to order parts anywhere. So that basically renders it useless unless Driftsun responds to my request for help. There is very little in the way of instruction with this kayak. Even on-line.

Lynden: The Driftsun Kayak is a good Kayak however it comes with a few up's and downs I think.
What I say below is just my thoughts and experiences with the Kayak. over all it is a fun Kayak but was not not what I was looking for for a long time investment and decided to send it back do to the - reasons. This all makes a defence when living in a condo.

+Well make for the material.
+Decent size for 1 person and kids but not 2 Adults.
+Easy to cary by your self

- Filer valves and pump should be changed to A (Halkey-Roberts(HR) Air Valve For Inflatable Boat Raft) this will help with inflation and deflating.
- Can not dry out easyly on a cool day or damp day like the ...Driftsun Rover 220 Inflatable Tandem Kayak – White Water Kayak with High Pressure Floor, EVA Padded Seats with High Back Support, Aluminum Paddles, Pump and More.
- Cant get all the air out after use to pack up and put away. Need defiant valves.
- Rated tor 2 adults but not able to cary 2 adults .....BIG DISAPPOINTMENT WHEN YOU CANT FIT 2 PEOPLE IN PROPERLY.

RussRuss: Purchased this Kayak about three weeks ago and have taken it out a few times in flat water. 5-7 minutes to inflate / assemble. Tracks very well in the water tandem or single, including in open water with wind / waves.

I would have benefited from better instructions on seat installation and adjustment but figured it out. Pump is bigger than it appears in the pic.
