5 Tips For Purchasing a Clear Bottom Inflatable Kayak

For those that enjoy kayaking will double their enjoyment by purchasing a clear bottom inflatable kayak. Here are few tips to help guide you on your purchase of a transparent bottom kayak.

Tip #1: Decide on how many people will be riding in your kayak.

Clear bottom kayaks generally come in one or two passenger models. If you are looking for more speed, a one person kayak would probably be a better choice. The two person model if designed for more leisurely rides. Much of your time will be spent gazing at the bottom of the water, so speed will probably not be an issue either way.

Tip #2: Insist on a kayak that is rugged and sturdy.

You will want your clear bottom kayak to be able to handle fresh and salt water kayaking. Let's face it, clear ocean water will provide some of the best sites below, so don't skimp on ruggedness and durability.

Tip #3: Decide on how you will transport your kayak.

Not all kayak models come with specially designed carrying cases for easy transport. Your clear bottom kayak could be carried in a 35-50 gallon tub, but you will find that a custom carrying case is a much better way to transport the boat.

Tip #4: Choose a Kayak model with adjustable seats and ample storage.

The ability to adjust the seats and back supports is very important, especially if a variety of people (and body types) will be using your inflatable kayak. The Hanauma clear bottom kayak is a two person model that features adjustable seats. The seats also include fanny packs, gear pouches, bottle holders, and fasteners for dive flags so the kayak can serve as a dive platform.

Tip #5: Be sure your kayak carries a suitable warranty.

A kayak is like any other consumer good in that it should perform as the manufacturer claims it will. Check the manufacturers fine print for the life and terms of the warranty. Most reputable manufacturers will stand behind their products, but it is imperative that you know the warranty terms before your purchase.

which is a good "mini" backpack for jogging/rollerblading?

I want to be able to fit about 2-3 bottles of water, small bottle of insect repellant, small hand towel, keys, cell phone. I want it small since I will be jogging/rollerblading and do not want a big bulky backpack, especially in the summers heat, but It has to be a backpack because any type of purse puts too much weight on one shoulder (not interested in waist or "fanny" packs)
ive looked online and only saw "hydration" and "day" packs but aren't sure they are what I'm looking for. I dont want to spend more than $30. I dont want thick straps because it will be too hot. Total size should be about 10" tall x 8" wide. Is there anything like this out there?
Nevermind, I found one online http://www.rockymountaintrail.com/detail.aspx?id=8243 i just got it and it's exactly what I was looking for.

the best thing to get is a hydration pack, there are models out there that is a small backpack, on zipper you can put water into the pouch and drink water as you run and theres a sipper where you coud put snacks and other things into, they usually sell around $30
