Advanced Elements Firefly Kayak Review

Features

Features of the sit-inside FireFly kayak's construction include a durable outer cover made from 600 D polyester, a rigid bow and stern that improve tracking through the built-in rigid panels, and a PVC tarpaulin hull designed with a landing plate and tracking fin. The Twistlok valves and high-flow Spring valve help to make inflation faster. The kayak comes in a yellow-blue color, and the carrying duffel bag and repair kit is included.

The FireFly kayak has bungee deck lacing along with a mesh storage pocket and rubber molded handle for transporting. The perimeter seam is welded.

Costs

The Advanced Elements FireFly Kayak is available for purchase at local sporting goods stores and online for about $200 as of August 2010.
