AQUAGLIDE Chelan 155 Inflatable Tandem Kayak
The AQUAGLIDE Chelan 155 is a high-performance tandem inflatable kayak engineered for touring efficiency and hull speed. Its combination of rugged Duratex™ PVC tubes and a drop-stitch hard-bottom floor delivers a rigid, responsive open-cockpit platform that tracks like a hardshell kayak. At 13’6″ (155″) long and 35″ wide, the Chelan 155 accommodates one or two paddlers plus gear, making it ideal for solo excursions, tandem outings, or expeditions with a child or pet. Lightweight, compact, and easy to transport, this kayak takes the performance of a expedition boat and packs down into a carry bag for convenient storage and travel.
Key Features & Benefits
- Duratex™ Tube Construction: Reinforced PVC tubes provide exceptional puncture and abrasion resistance, ensuring long-lasting durability on lakes, rivers, and coastal waters.
- Drop-Stitch Hard-Bottom Floor: High-pressure drop-stitch floor inflates to a rigid hull with realistic rocker lines, enhancing tracking, hull speed, and overall stability.
- Optimized Hull Speed & Efficiency: Carefully designed rocker profile and tapered bow reduce drag for a smooth, efficient paddle stroke and improved straight-line tracking.
- Open Cockpit Layout: Spacious cockpit allows easy entry/exit and offers ample room for legs, gear, or an angler’s setup, making it a versatile platform for touring or fishing.
- Performance Touring Design: Narrow 35″ beam and length-to-width ratio balance stability with speed—perfect for performance tandem outings or larger solo paddlers carrying extra equipment.
- Enhanced Gear Storage: Multiple D-rings and bungee deck lacing secure dry bags, coolers, or fishing rods, keeping essentials within reach during long paddles.
- Lightweight & Portable: At only 35 lbs (hull weight), the Chelan 155 deflates and packs into a carry bag for easy transport in a car trunk or on a roof rack—no trailer required.
