Tributary Strike Inflatable Kayak

I’ve had this Kayak for 10 years and took it on many back country trips in Alaska. Alas I lent it to my nephew and thru no fault of his, the California sun burst its seam. So sad. I expect I will be ordering a new one -

I have had this kayak for 15 years.
I used it mainly on class 2/3 Rivers.
It even performed fairly well in flatwater.
I enjoyed it every single trip and never had any problems with it whatsoever until a catastrophic blowout of the left side wall. The way the tubes are designed let me paddle out by using rope to secure the tube. It could have been a lot worse but the design let me get out without walking. If I would have treated my boat properly and stored it properly every time, it would have lasted a lot longer. I am replacing it with a lynx 2 on Tuesday. Despite the catastrophe at the end, I got more than my money's worth out of this kayak and I would recommend it to anybody. I was so close to giving it five stars despite the blowout. That is genuinely the only bad thing that ever happened.
Aire customer service has always been incredible and helpful and I just cannot say enough good things about them.

When this boat died I felt like I had lost a member of my family... RIP Blue Betty
