I think Sevylor has done a great deal to improve the Alameda from its previous iterations, with such things as removable and adjustable seats go a long way for a family of kayakers.

However, if you can't quite decide, here are a few more things to take note to help you make your decision on just this.

The hull is made from strong heavy duty tarpaulin which extends way above the water line, making this a robust kayak but also adding to the overall size and weight. I would say the Alameda is near impossible to flip on straightforward calm rivers and lakes, which makes it ideal for even the most unconfident riders and swimmers. The raised walls of the kayak with the built-in spray wall gives you excellent defence against small waves and choppier waters that you sometimes may encounter on even the calmest of lakes, which is usually due to being caught in poor weather. Due to this, you will find yourself with a relatively dry boat.

So if you want super-convenience, go for this option. The bladders still remain independant from each other in the unlikely event of a puncture. However, if you’re saving some budget aside for equipment, the standard version only has 2 extra values – so not a huge inconvenience!The Sevylor Ottawa Kayak 2023 is the most recent addition to the fleet, and is widely recognised as the best inflatable kayak on the market. A more expensive choice, the Ottawa is an investment in return for unparalleled strength, performance and stability. Complete with bungee cord strapping, this helps to keep your luggage secure and saves clutter around the seats allowing all to paddle free and as light as possible. Features
