Oru Inlet

Really liking the portabiity!

After the first time of assembly and disassembly, the setup and breakdown goes really fast. It is wonderfully portable. This was the reason for the purchase. On the water, it feels a bit tippier than my old solid sit-on-top, but still pretty stable. I'm not a fan of the seat back assembly as it is very easy to knock it out of position. This is particularly true for me, as I have joint issues the process of getting in the kayak is awkward at best. Even with that issue, the back is sort of held in place with the straps. Looking forward to many hours on the water with this craft, and we're thinking of purchasing another.

Best Oru size

The Inlet is better than my Beach, proportionally to my size 5’4". I’m able to carry it as one person and it fits in my backseat as well as the trunk of my SUV with a lot of room for other items. I think once used a few times, it’ll conform to its proper shape folded but out of the box it was a little wonky.

Three Orus

We have two inlets and one beach. Love all three, take the inlets camping and use the beach for open water swimming support.
