My fiancée and I were lucky enough to get an intel K2 for the real $100 price from amazon instead of the gouger price. We’ve been out on NYC’s most scenic and often polluted waterways with it, even up and down the harbor close to shore and plenty of random rivers and inlets that look navigable but are really only 4” deep in parts.

My partner and I use just a regular ol Intex Challenger 2 and we don't really have any problems with sagging or overtopping in relatively calm water. It's not much faster or more maneuverable than an air mattress, but you can't beat the price. Even with the much larger weight differential, the seats adjust so you can play with the center of mass.

Link those $25-45 ones. That's like inner tube price.

I used an Intex K2 for years without any problems besides bad steering and getting pushed around by wind a bit. It'll also come with a skeg and a paddle.

The K1 is a one person version and it's under a hundo. I thiiiink it comes with a patch kit, but most of the holes in inflatables ime come from storage.

Aside from a rated vest, get a dry bag too.
