The high-pressure drop-stitch floor (included) gives you excellent rigidity and a very smooth hull bottom, so you glide through the water gracefully.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak sits at that sweet spot – it’s not the fastest kayak we sell, but it’s got a wonderful ‘glide’ to it.

Even though it’s only 4m long, the drop-stitch keels give you a wonderful paddling experience.

Yes!

For a shortish kayak, the tracking is excellent, even without the fin.

The high-pressure drop-stitch floor plays a big part in this. The enhanced rigidity helps the kayak glide through the water smoothly.

But the most important feature for tracking is the hull shape - the drop-stitch keels at the bow and stern are amazingly effective, they keep you going straight even with no fin and even in the wind!

Not much.

All kayaks are wind affected to some degree.

You can generally predict how wind affected it’s going to be based on the ratio of kayak above the waterline to kayak below the waterline.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak sits quite low in the water, especially compared to other inflatables, so it performs quite well in wind.

You can also look at the hull shape to determine wind affect. The Quest has drop-stitch keels at both the bow and the stern and these dramatically improve the kayak's ability to keep it's directional line in the wind.

It's wonderful, I could spend all day paddling it!

The extra-stiff high-backed seat is paired with high-mounted D-rings for better lumbar support.

A removable 5cm seat cushion is included. I prefer it out in the Quest for a lower center of gravity and better stability, but you may want it in for rough conditions to stay drier.

The adjustable foot pegs allow you to use your whole body for more efficient paddling.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak comes with adjustable foot pegs. A lot of paddlers swear by foot pegs for encouraging good paddling technique and for supporting the lower back.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak has very good back support with an extra-stiff high-backed seat, paired with high-mounted D-rings for better lumbar support.

Yes, if they are not massive.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is spaced nicely for 2 adults and a small to medium sized dog.

The drop-stitch floor inside the kayak is super tough, you do not need any reinforcement.

The wide flat hull means the kayak is very stable so you won’t all go over board if your dog gets excited and makes a sudden move (not that they ever do that …).

Yes.

The wide flat hull means the kayak is very stable so you can focus on fishing and relaxing.

The drop-stitch floor and the PVC tarpaulin are extremely durable, giving you the confidence that neither fish nor fishing gear will cause a puncture.

Optional Railblaza Starport Rod Holder II and RailBlaza Starport Adhesive Mount can be attached to the drop-stitch floor.

Optional kayak anchor ίf the fish are biting and you want to stay where you are.

Optional accessory frame if you want to attach additional rod holders, an EPERB, a fish finder, go-pro etc.

Yes.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayakis good for taking kids, as long as they are still small.

It’s super-stable, so the kids can have a nap and muck around without tipping it over.

It’s not huge inside - there’s enough room for 2 adults and a small child.

Yes, it’s a good choice for at tender, as long as you are not in open ocean.

It’s got the high-pressure drop-stitch floor which makes it easy to step into and out of.

The wide-open cockpit also makes it easy to step in and out of.

It’s not our biggest kayak, but there is still quite a bit of deck space and capacity (250kg) for gear if you are using it to transport your stuff to and from shore.

**Caution – do not leave the kayak inflated on the deck of the boat. The heat will cause the pressure to rise and you could damage the kayak.

Although it performs well in chop, it is not rated for open ocean because there are no bail ports for swamping waves.

It’s fast and comfortable enough for anything from 1 hour to a full-day trip.

You could technically do a multi-day expedition, you just don’t have a massive amount of deck space for storage of gear.

If you have to pack a huge amount of stuff, I suggest looking at our AdvancedFrame Convertible Elite, which has more storage space.

Not really, because there is no spray deck to keep swamping waves out, and the kayak does not have bail ports, so any water that gets inside the kayak is staying in there.

If you are considering paddling in rough conditions, the Kayak Bilge Pump is recommended.

No.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is fine for class 1 and 2 whitewater, however it is really designed to paddle in a straight line, and therefore not recommended for rivers above class 2.

This is an AWESOME kayak for beginners!

The key feature for beginners is stability and the Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is wonderfully stable, even for getting in and out of.

The hull design makes it super-easy to paddle straight, even if you have never kayaked before.

At 17.1kg, it’s light enough for most people to lift, even on their own.

Yes! In fact, I would say it’s the BEST tandem kayak we have for seniors.

In my experience, seniors are looking for a lightweight kayak, and at 17.1kg, the Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak definitely ticks that box.

The other key features for seniors are stability and ease of getting in and out – the Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is extremely stable and the wide open cockpit makes it easy to get in and out of.

Yes, with an adult.

It’s light, stable and easily to paddle, which are the key features for kids when they are learning to paddle.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is a doddle to get in and out of.

The sides are low and the kayak is super stable, you can just flop into it and flop out if you have to.

If there was ONE tall paddler, that would be fine, the seats and foot pegs can be moved around to give the tall paddler more length.

If, however, there were TWO very tall paddlers, I would recommend checking out the Odyssey Tandem Inflatable kayak, which has more internal length than the Quest Tandem.

The maximum capacity is 250kgs.

We recommend that no individual paddler weighs more than 120kg.

The Jaspara range of kayaks is crafted using premium-quality drop-stitch and PVC Tarpaulin and assembled by a dedicated team. Each kayak is fully inflated and left for a period of 7 days to ensure it remains leak-free before packaging.

We've personally tested and carefully positioned essential components—such as handles, seats, D-rings, and foot pegs—to guarantee comfort, stability, and an optimal paddling experience.

The Quest Tandem is a sit-on-top inflatable kayak.

The cockpit is wide open for easy entry and exit - you can NOT put on a spray-skirt.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is a tandem kayak – this means it has seating for 2 people.

Taking a small child with you is also totally viable.

Paddling the Quest Tandem as a solo kayak is awesome.

Deflated and packed dimensions are:

113cm x 49cm x 38cm

The weight is 17.1kg (kayak + seats + foot pegs).

In the bag with all the extras it comes to 21.85kg.

At 17.1kg, the Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is one of our lightest tandem kayaks.

Most people can carry it down to the water by themselves.

The Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak is super stable with low profile side chambers - you can just flop in and out of it, no grace required.

There is a detachable fin that comes with the kayak, but you do not need to use it, the kayak tracks very well without it.

We included the fin so you would be able to use the fin box on the kayak to attach a propeller (yee haw!).

Yes - the Quest Tandem Inflatable Kayak includes a removable slide-and-lock fin via the fin box underneath. It does not have a rudder.

No.
