| The outside cover of the Advanced Elements Lagoon 2 inflatable kayak is made with two different materials; the topside is a high denier Polyester with a PVC laminate, while the bottom (Hull) is made with a PVC tarpaulin. "PVC tarpaulin" is made by combining two sheets of PVC with a fabric mesh in the middle. In addition the inner tube is covered with a high density fabric to increase performance and durability. Its bow and stern have fixed rigid forms that help cut through the waves and keep you on course. The Lagoon has a inner tube cover for increased rigidity and durability. It has molded rubber-grip handles, bungee deck lacing, padded seat rests, mesh accessory pocket, tracking skeg and foam floor. The Lagoon replaces the Dragonfly for 2009 with stronger, more durable tube covers. | |||||||||

| Review: | Very pleased with this kayak, and with purchasing from Austin Canoe & Kayak. Shipping was very fast after ordering on a Sunday! Along with the kayak, I purchased the Advanced Elements Bellows Foot Pump and two Bending Branches Whisper Dream Kayak Paddles. The Advanced Elements Bellows Foot Pump includes several connector tips that are conveniently attached to the pump hose. Two of those connectors connect perfectly to the two types of inflation spots on the kayak and its inflatable seats (unlike the problem mentioned in a prior review). Without straining, am able to have the kayak and seats fully inflated and ready to go in about 10 minutes. Have never needed to use the "deflate" capability of the foot pump, but it is there. Decided to get the Bending Branches Whisper Dream Kayak Paddles even though they only disassemble into two pieces instead of the other paddle which disassembles into 4 smaller pieces. The Whisper Dream paddles specs showed that they had a larger paddle surface, and I did not really need the small disassembled size of the other paddles. Got the 230 CM size and that has been fine for my partner and I who are about 5'5" to 5'8" tall. Have used the kayak 5 times so far and it has performed satisfactorily each time. - Twice on the Hudson River, once in windy, raining conditions and once with the tide against us part way. - Once on a lake with a fair amount of choppy waves due to motor boats. - Once in a calm, open, sound- like body of water. - Once in a long creek The kayak feels stable when sitting it. My kayaking partner, who is not a great swimmer, is comfortable in it. Our combined weight is about 290 pounds, so it is within the stated limit of 350 pounds. The inflatable seats are very comfortable and provide good back support. Another plus is that this inflatable kayak not only performs satisfactorily, it also looks like a real kayak, not a pool toy. There is good space in the seating areas of the kayak for legs and feet, plus perhaps a soft-sided cooler and some gear. I have always brought the foot pump with us but have never needed it. Plus there is the front tie-down. However, this is not a kayak to go camping in. The 37 pound folded weight is ok and so is the packed size. No trouble getting it back into the bag. If any of the Advanced Elements designers are listening, the only suggestion would be to make the rear "fin" detachable and perhaps slightly larger. Then fin tends to stay bent to one side as a result of packing. If it were detachable, it would not bend to one side and probably could be larger. Summary: I would purchase this kayak again, and would purchase it from Austin Kayak. It is great to be able to go kayaking without having to deal with the hassle of a kayak on the roof. | ||||

| Review: | needed a portable boat, something my daughters could get into their cars and use at the bay. first time out the girls had fun. easy to inflate and seemed to track well in somewhat windy conditions with chop. although i think it was inflated as recommended the boat seemed to flex right in the middle - also soft at that point on the deck. also, once wet inside it requires complete disassemblt to dry - not an easy do. just purchased a spine as it seems many recommend it. also, weight limit is quite low for tandem boat | ||||

| Review: | I was very pleased with the kayak. The shipping was faster than expected and I was able to get into the water a couple of days earlier than expected. It is very easy to inflate and deflate and handles in the water very well. Even putting it back into its "suitcase", provided, was simple. The only drawback is that it does not come with a pump and it was somewhat difficult to find one that worked well. | ||||

| Review: | I am very pleased and love this kayak. It is quick and easy to inflate. We had a blast on the water. As a novice kayaker, I was able to maneuver it with ease and was quite comfortable in it. Deflating and packing it up is just as easy. I am looking foward to many more fun days on the water! I purchased the Lagoon 2 package and definitely recommend this kayak package deal. The purchase experience from ACK was great. The items were sent promptly and UPS delivery was right on time. | ||||
