New this year! Stearns B527 Pivot Self-Bailing River Runner Inflatable Kayak in lime-green! Whether you're heading out for some fun on the river or riding the waves on the ocean, the new Stearns B527 Pivot River Runner is a very maneuverable playboat built with extremely durable materials.

• Durable, lightweight and compact - inflates in minutes!
• Five chamber main design: two main chambers, floor and two buoyancy chambers

• Floor chamber incorporates Stearns patented Techtour design, featuring a shallow arch hull and a flat top surface for a dramatically more rigid hull with excellent paddling characteristics
• Fully covered front buoyancy chamber gives added flotation and acts as a foot brace. Rear buoyancy chamber also acts as a dry bag. A mini-Boston valve inflates each and has a strapping system anchored at four points to keep them connected to the kayak in rougher water
• Blunt nose design adds flotation when bow ro stern is swamped and also gives a "bumper" zone against unexpected obstacles
• Improved self-bailing design allows for faster drainage
• More rocker keeps the kayak above the oncoming waves and improves maneuverability
