11'9" Chelan™ HB One Inflatable High Pressure Kayak

The smallest, lightest one person Chelan™ HB One from Aquaglides high performance line of inflatable touring kayaks. These give you hard shell kayak performance with inflatable kayak convenience and lightweight. Aquaglides supremely rigid high pressure "HB" Hard-Bottom™ drop stitch floor give you a rock hard and stiff hull. This combined with 100% Aquaglides tough Duratex™ Heavy-Duty PVC Tarpaulin tube construction provides the highest durability and greatest ease of maintenance. "HB" Hard-Bottom™ floors allow a self bailing design feature and Duratex material resist mold and mildew if packed away wet.  The Aquaglide HB series construction combination creates one very stiff and responsive inflatable that’s so easy to inflate and use that you’ll wish you had one long ago. No metal frames to insert or put together, just inflate up to pressure and go!

       The Chelan™ HB One has the shortest length at just under 12 feet so it will be very maneuverable. The capacity of 300 pounds and weight of only 22 pounds means it will easily carry you and your gear and when the tables are turned and you have to carry it, you’ll find it just as easy.  All Chelan's have a long waterline, flat rocker and fine, piercing bow that provides great tracking and outstanding glide to cover long distances with ease. The high-performance US fin box system includes a unique oversized foiled fin making these kayaks track straighter than any inflatable you've tried.  Put it in the water and these kayaks will have you looking for adventure.

     For added comfort they designed the PRO-formance™ air cushion seats that allow inflatable seat height adjustment, mid to high backrest support that is soft covered with a cool, breathable and fast drying material. These super comfortable seats have an array of thoughtful features including, mesh storage pockets, integrated fishing-rod holders, fore and aft seat strap adjustments so you’ll enjoy your time on the water to its fullest. You'll also appreciate the Splash-Guards™ positioned at the bow and stern of each deck to help keep paddler’s dry while providing easy stowage for dry bags or other gear. Sturdy molded handles are positioned for convenient launching and handling. Because nobody likes to fight with their gear, an oversized front-loading travel bag/backpack is included for easy storage and transport. This bag is large enough to easily fit the kayak without a struggle, and still able to be checked onto most airlines as standard sized luggage.

    An optional integrated touring deck cover is available separately. To unleash the Chelan’s full potential we suggest using one of the 12V High Pressure pumps and/or a High Pressure Push pump to top it off at max pressure. Pumps and Paddles are sold separately. USCG approved life vest are also required by law and just good to have at the least. Duratex™ Heavy-Duty PVC Tarpaulin is so durable you may never need to repair it, but if you do a repair kit is included and repairs are almost as simple as putting a band aid on.  Aquaglide HB series are expedition grade kayaks that will last for many years.
