Looking for a lightweight kayak that does not compromise on performance? The Lightweight Deluxe Kayak Package allows you to use proper paddling technique for a full day’s paddle, but weighs in at only 13kg and sets up in under 5 minutes. Durable enough for dogs, kids and fishing.
Paddlers who need (or want) a lightweight kayak and
Might be beginners, but want to be able to use correct paddling technique and go for full-day trips
Want something very quick and easy to set up
Want a stable kayak so they can take a child or a dog paddling
Want a kayak durable enough for occasional fishing
Are over 90kg but don’t want to compromise on rigidity (NOTE – this kayak is still awesome for people under 90kg)
Are NOT going in open water or whitewater
Here’s why this is a top-notch lightweight kayak
AdvancedFrame Design
The AdvancedFrame Sport Elite Kayak performs well on the water, thanks to the aluminium ribs inside the kayak . These ribs give the kayak a vertical bow and stern that prevent ‘waggle’ as you paddle.
It also has a built in fin on the hull that helps the kayak track straight.
Note that this kayak is designed for sheltered flat water – it is not suitable for whitewater and does not have an open water classification.
Drop-Stitch Floor
Drop-stitch is a chamber that is stitched top-to-bottom all the way through, so you can inflate it to very high pressure, but it maintains its shape.
The drop-stitch floor improves the performance of the kayak by giving you exceptional rigidity, especially when you are over 90kg.
The rigidity means the kayak travels through the water faster because there is less drag, AND it means the bow and stern stay IN the water, allowing the AdvancedFrame aluminium rib system to do its job.
It also gives you ‘chines’ in the hull – this is a fancy kayak word for corners. These corners help the kayak to track straight.
Stable and Wide-Open Cockpit
The AdvancedFrame Sport Elite is a sit-in kayak, but it has a much bigger cockpit than most sit-in kayaks.
This wide-open cockpit makes it much easier to get in and out of.
If you are a beginner, you will love the Lightweight Deluxe Kayak Package – the stability and the straight tracking make it a doddle to paddle.
It’s also great because it gives you plenty of room for dogs, small kids and for fishing gear.
The kayak is also STABLE enough for dogs, kids and fishing – sudden movements from an unpredictable element might cause you to capsize in a narrow kayak, but the AdvancedFrame Sport is wide enough to handle surprises!
Foot Brace
The Foot Brace that comes with the Lightweight Deluxe Kayak Package allows you to brace your feet so you can use proper paddling technique. This technique isn’t just about going faster, it also gives you a better, full-body work out, and saves your back.
Durable
All of the Advanced Elements kayaks that we sell are ruggedly durable from the outside – you don’t have to worry about punctures from submerged objects.
Not only does the AdvancedFrame Sport Elite Kayak have multiple layers protecting the inner tube, the outer hull is made from thick, multi-layered PVC Tarpaulin.
What sets the Lightweight Deluxe kayak package apart is the durability INSIDE the kayak. If you want to take your dog(s) or do a bit of fishing, the drop-stitch floor is tough as nails. No need to worry about claws or hooks!
Many people contact me looking for a lightweight kayak, it just makes the process of going kayaking so much more appealing if you don’t have to lift a really heavy boat.
It’s appealing for people that want to go kayaking alone – if the kayak is lightweight and easy to set up, you’re more likely to enjoy the peace and quiet of solo kayaking.
And then of course, there are those customers who need a portable kayak for travel and have a weight constraint.
With the Lightweight Deluxe Kayak Package, the kayak is 13kg, which is manageable for most people.
Bear in mind that you don’t want your inflatable kayak to be too light, because you need a bit of weight for durability and performance.
The set-up time is 5 minutes from in-the-bag to on-the-water.
And if you’re someone who struggles with instructions, it’s REALLY simple!

Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
I belong to a Dragonboat Club in NSW, have really missed paddling during lockdown.
One of our members mentioned she recently bought the Lightweight Delux Package from Oz Inflatable kayaks.
I tried hers out and saw how easy it was to inflate, so I ordered the package myself.
Best decision I ever made, easy for me to get on the water now and delivery was super quick.
Easy to paddle and tracks really well, very happy.
Another member has also purchased recently.
I received my package just two days after ordering it. I am 64 years old and had not been in a kayak for many years. Even on my first set up I had it ready to go in under eight minutes (5 minutes on my second go) It packs up so small and light and no trouble to carry to the water. The kayak is everything you read about here and more. Its very comfortable, tracks beautifully and attracts attention in the water with others wanting to know where they can get one.
I think putting a package like this together is brilliant. You get everything you need to get started on the water right away. A big thanks to Emily and the team for amazing service. Just get one, you will never regret it!
