It is good for kayaking?

I put it facing me in mesh console pocket ( Harmony console ) and it is around level of the cockpit, so sound doesn't really travel to my fellow kayakers to annoy them but I can hear it well enough. Have 3 of these as the kids don't seem to appreciate my music playlist so have their own. I use my Zen, they use their Android phones as music sources.

I don't Kayak. BUT.... This thing is sealed like a pelican case if you are familiar with those. "O" ring seal for the inner box. The speaker is fully waterproof. It floats and the inside stays bone DRY. I would not hesitate to use it on a Kayak. It is a really rugged box. BTW, I hunt, fish, boat and I have a wife that can tear up a brick. This was a purchase for her if that helps! Mike

I bet it would be although I'm personally not a kayaker. One if the other reviewers who kayaked thought it was great.

It would be great for kayaking as long as you had a place to put it or hook it to.

I have never been there, but in imagining it, I might want something a little more substantial. Also, if you will be paddling over some distance, this really doesn't do great cutting through flat water at a reasonable speed. It is great if you have a current to take you along.

I have the unit which I use for kayaking. The world map that comes with it is laughable. You will need to buy a chart for that area. It is a well made unit which I am pleased with however.

It's easily strong enough to hold a couple kayaks. Just tie them down. You'll be fine.

I doubt it was designed specifically with that in mind. I think the design is clever and novel and was probably chosen to keep all the components in as small a package as possible. I think it would be fine to take out kayaking.

I take mine in the Gulf of Mexico to fish and no matter if the conditions are flat calm to 2 1/2ft seas with constantly shifting winds mild to gusty, in the marshes, skinny waters with oyster beds, muck and rock, I'm confident in the way this little vessel handles out there. Google Earth is a good tool to use before you go out, to find out the what the waters are like. Pay attention to the weather and use common sense in regards to conditions, your abilities and comfort zone. The kayak should get you there and back w/out incident.

Yeah! I've gone fishing, caught some small fish with it!Just be careful if you catch anything big.. :)Also don't hook your kayak, that'd be bad..

It will keep you afloat if kept full. But its not as sturdy as a life vest. So if youre new to open water, a life jacket would be safer. Wouldnt recommend it for kayaking on rocky rivers. Sharp rocks could puncture the inflated vest. Great for snorkeling.

I have only had kayaks on it so there is not much to support. I have had it on the highway at 65 mph with no problems but only have a few hundred miles on it. So far so good.

I got it to wear kayaking in colder Southern California weather. I don't think that it is meant to wear IN water.

Not sure yet but I am using it for a kayak trip and want to use it in the water

I think it would be fine for kayaking... all of the items are wrapped together in the foil and then wrapped very tightly with the cord.

No its probably way too thin for that. I just use it for kayaking in California during the fall and winter months its perfect for me but you likely need a 5/4 at least. Hope this helps out some

Yes, It would be a good choice for fiberglass Kayak repair in my opinion. It is felxible and strong. I used it to repair a Carbon Fiber bike frame for that reason. I have used it for repair of Fiberglass rowing shells as well. You may want to check the West System web site for other options just in case ther is a better choice. They make great products.

I really don't know. I only use it at a quiet small lake. I would not want to risk itin swift moving water. Better to use a hard shell kayak.

Hard to say. There are several types of kayaking, so the answer would not be the same. Of much more concern is the water. This is billed as water resistant, not waterproof. It's designed to get rained on and splashed, not taken swimming. If you're going white water kayaking, then it's probably not going to make you happy. Flat water kayaking will work just fine.I only have a problem with the volume when I'm riding at more than 20 mph and the wind overpowers it. Probably not an issue with kayaking.

I used it to inflate a pilates ball, so I don't know how well it would work for your kayak. I think it may work, and considering it's inexpensive I think it's worth a try. Good luck.
