Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Compare Paddle Ski to Sea Eagle
Permalink  

I would like to ask if anyone has the PaddleSki (what size?) as I am tossed between the smaller Kayak 330 or even the 370 and the PaddleSki 395. We want to use it on the larger rivers (almost lake like) here in Nashville TN area. Some quiet areas, some of the smaller creek, rivers but this will also be used later on ( a yr or 2) as we travel Full time so size is a little consideration. I'm almost thinking like Howard, I'd like to have the little 370 Kayak and then the smaller Paddle Ski 395. (Howard has the FoldCat) Let me know your experience or thoughts on this. Ken

We are also considering HOBIEKAYAKS.COM, they have an inflatable unit with some kind of pedal system that propels it. The 14ft two person unit looks good, G, LINK

I Checked them out, that is one cool boat. The one I did find on the internet was $1700 Whoooa. But, that would be a quicker way around the lake for sure. Thanks for the tip. Now I am totally confused what I want.LOL Ken

Happy Traveler,
We have the Paddle Ski 435 by Sea Eagle that we purchased last fall. Now, we've only been able to use it once before the cold weather moved in (NC) but we really like it a lot. We, too, purchased it to take with us (hopefully before the end of this year) We only wanted one boat so chose this based on the recommendation of Tim and Crystal from inflatableboats4less.com. They are the Sea Eagle dealers that Howard has always recommended. The Paddle Ski is their boat of choice and the one they travel with. I wish I could give you a comparison to the kayak but I can't. If you are coming to the rally and are interested in seeing it, let us know and we'll bring it with us. smile

Thanks Gail, the sale is over tomorrow 28th so I'm really trying to make a decision if I'm going for it now or I will just have to wait and hope they go on sale again later. I looked at the Hobie Cat but that will have to be another toy later at $1700 and I didn't even look if that was shipping and oars and seats and all. I want one for the summer this year. Thanks again. Ken
