Kayaking in Clark County


Sea Eagle 370 Pro Inflatable Sport Kayak
12.5’ long and 32" wide, for 1 or 2 persons, holds up to 600 lbs load, 32 lbs weight, white, $360.  I paddle this kayak by myself.  I primarily travel on calm flat water like at nearby Lacamas Lake, Yale Lake, or Lake Merwin.  With car shuffling arrangements I can float down local rivers.
