How many years do kayaks last?
Modern inflatable kayaks will easily last 7-10 years with proper care, similar to the life of an inflatable dinghy. However, this depends on good maintenance. If you don’t take care of your kayak, it will not last more than 2 years in extreme cases. Open-top recreational kayaks are easier to get on and off of but are not as stable in rougher conditions. Sit-in kayaks can take a bit of practice to get in and out of but are far more stable in a wider range of conditions.Sit-in recreation (9′-11′) – Sit-in or sit-on-top recreational kayaks average about 10′ long. This is the most common kayak stype and size for recreational kayaking.Sit-on-top kayaks are definitely the most popular of the two with serious anglers. That’s because their wide, stable platform makes it easy (easier than with a sit-inside) to accessorize and make room for all your gear. And many sit-on-top fishing kayaks are wide and stable enough to stand up on, as well as sit.Recreational kayaks are the most common kayaks, and they are what most people use when they kayak on a lake, pond or calm river. They are shorter than 14 feet, and have wide, stable bodies, and wide, open cockpits designed for comfort and ease of entry and exit.Kayaks are typically built to be unsinkable. They are usually constructed from buoyant materials such as polyethylene or composite materials that won’t give up on you even when completely filled with water.

It’s equally stable and maneuverable, but with a more compact design and some extra features like drink holders and an insulated cooler bag. Pelican Catch Classic 100 • 2025 MSRP $599.
