Gumotex Thaya

Tandem Inflatable Kayak With A Drop-Stitch Floor

The Gumotex Thaya is the latest design to come from this superb manufacturer of inflatable canoes and kayaks. Made from the hard-wearing Nitrilon material, the Gumotex Thaya features a Drop Stitch floor. This is a technique that is well known in inflatable SUP's and involves the top and bottom layers of the floor chamber being 'stitched' together by row upon row of strong threads. This means that an inflatable kayak made with drop stitch can be inflated to a much higher pressure than other models. The higher pressure and added strength provided by the drop stitching makes these kayaks stiffer, faster, more stable and more responsive with less effort from the paddlers.

The Gumotex Thaya comes with 2 seats as standard, but it is also capable of being paddled solo with a simple re-arranging of the seating. There is also space for a small child to go between 2 adults as well, if required. This makes the Thaya a very versatile inflatable kayak.

Inflating the Gumotex Thaya is quick and easy cutting down the time required to get onto the water. Deflating is even faster and the flexibility of the Nitrilon means that the Thaya can be packed away quickly into the neat backpack-style storage bag included. A Gumotex Pressure gauge is a handy addition to the Thaya to ensure you get the right pressure every time.
