I decided to buy a $79 Intex K2 Explorer inflatable kayak and make it sail. I have not seen anyone do that. The K2 Explorer kayak should fit in my car and seems like fun. I miss sailing so much. The kayak came a couple of hours ago. So far it seems like a good deal. I was surprised at how quickly it inflated with the hand pump. I am enjoying thinking of all the options I have to try and convert it into a sailboat for as little money as possible but still have it sail to windward and not be a major hassle to assemble. One of the only negatives I have seen so far is the 2 main chambers inflate into separate left and right chambers. It is better to have a separate inner and outer hull chamber as opposed to a left and right chamber. If one side gets punctured using the left and right chamber design you will still stay afloat but have no or little possibility to maneuver and be swamped. If one chamber is punctured using the inner and outer design you may still have a possibility of maneuvering and keep the water out. On the other hand, the K2 looks like it will be possible to re-enter the boat should it capsize and be righted. Many small kayaks are near impossible to get back on or in if they capsize and are very dangerous. I will keep you guys posted as I progress with the boat. In 6 to 8 weeks the weather is going to change and it will be wonderful to be outside in a small boat. I hope many happy videos are coming soon. Thanks for watching.
