The ultimate in portable inflatable kayaks is an ingenious design from Advanced Elements. I first tried my PackLite kayak in California on Clear Lake in windy weather. Now, this kayak weighs only four pounds and is made out of a thin material. I wondered how sturdy it would be. So, I paddled it at a good pace right onto a cement ramp full of pine needles and little rocks. I did this several times, trying to abrade the hull and tear the fabric. Incredibly, it held up without a scratch! It is a rugged little unit and yet will support 250 lbs., just like Advanced Elements Firefly kayak, which is also 7' 10" long. The only caution is not to overinflate the PackLite to prevent tearing a seam. Inflate it until its chambers still will take a depression from your finger. Then, it is ready for those otherwise inaccessible wilderness lakes and streams, its mere four pounds making it perfect for your backpack. Kudos to Advanced Elements for coming up with this "impossible" watercraft that tracks reasonably well, holds a lot of weight, and has almost no weight of its own! Treat it well, and it will do the same for the adventurous paddler. I have used mine for several years now, and it is still like new. Top marks!
