Can you take it river rafting, small rapids, maybe up to class 2?

I wouldn't. Oars don't work too well. Floor isn't sturdy for rapids. Nothing to hold onto for rapids. Shallow boat I think it would tip easy. Good boat for floating or fishing that is about it.

Yes you can. I took it two weeks ago class 3 & class 4 rapids on the Pigeon River with two large adults and 2 kids. Did great. I will probably buy a couple more for next year. Others I bought did not make it very well.

That would be hard for me to answer. We just use it for fun. It is very nice for the price and compact. We use it at the lake for our Grandkids to paddle around in. Many years ago we also owned another one that we used for our kids to paddle behind us connected by a rope to our canoe when we canoed on a MN river and they were grade school age.

Ismael,I dont know why you wouldn't be able to us it there. Unless they dont allow kayaks there. The kayak is rated for 400 lbs, so you would be good to go. It moves well in the water, but wouldn't be the best when windy as it's very light and you may have to fight that. For me, I would buy another one if I did it again. It's great.Hope this helps

I have the 7200 and have never used it for rafting, but it mounts fine on a bicycle helmet and does a nice job of making videos.

Yes, one person can paddle it with no problem. I usually do the paddling for both me and my daughter, who is disabled, but have occasionally paddled alone. I'd recommend getting a better paddle than the one that comes with the kayak, though.

It will be tough especially on the back rider. Besides being the steersman and "propeller" s/he has to bend their legs to the point where it may interfere with the paddling action. The person in the front can stretch their feet out into the front. I would recommend one kayak per, especially if you are any taller than 5'4" (seriously, seated your buttocks to soles of your feet extend 3 feet), it will be cramped. With gear, f'gettaboutit!

Yes, this one floats on top of the water well with the least amount of drag out of all our tubes. You should be fine, even with this smaller boat, as long as your rider(s) are within the tube's weight limit.

A small one without a lot of gpm, yes. But you would need to figure out the waterfall attachment, you could probably purchase an off the shelf one to fit.

I have had this canoe about a year and a half. Last time I took it out I did get stuck a few times in the Moncacy river due to shallow water (probably less than 6 inches). I will say though that it needs a minimal amount of water to float.

You could but it is only good for one or two floods, it is not reusable. It will quickly break-down after the first use.

Probably. This boat is very small - 8 ft. You probably need a much longer boat 13 ft +

Too small for paddle boarding. You will need a bigger wider board for that!

I have only tried paddling with two persons in the open ocean. I would think that paddling in calm waters such as in a lagoon could be relatively easy for only one person. In the sea, the two rowers are needed, in my opinion.

Seems OK. I haven't used it much since rafting a river with a lot of whitewater.

You could fish with this kayak. Casting might roll some, but small lake, river fishing should be ok. try to get the better seats. we have the cheaper blowups and they really aren't as good- too low and not enough back support. there is enough room between seats for tackle box, worms, and you could tie a stringer off the bow or stern. Large fish might pull you around, though ;-).

They make truly waterproof bags for canoeing. Some will even float. This is more of a school book bag.

I have never been there, but in imagining it, I might want something a little more substantial. Also, if you will be paddling over some distance, this really doesn't do great cutting through flat water at a reasonable speed. It is great if you have a current to take you along.
