NRS Akamai 145 Inflatable Kayak – Portable, Stable, Adventure-Ready
The NRS Akamai 145 is a lightweight, packable inflatable kayak built for after-work paddles, weekend lake missions, and travel. It balances portability with comfort and tracking so you can explore more water with less hassle.
Constructed with PVC-free dual-TPU coated nylon and RF-welded seams, the Akamai is durable, easily repairable, and air-tight. A 3" drop-stitch floor adds stiffness and stability, while a QuickClick™ fin and low-profile bow keel improve straight-line efficiency.
Flatwater Performance, Travel Friendly
Despite its increased waterline, the Akamai 145 remains easy to carry, inflate, and store. The adjustable lightweight seat and movable foam foot block let you dial in trim and comfort, and fore/aft splash covers with a bottle holder keep day-trip essentials tidy.
Durable & Simple
TPU fabrics, Leafield D7M valves, and aluminum attachment points are built for seasons of use. The non-self-bailing design keeps water out for drier rides on lakes and mellow rivers.
