This is for the paddler who wants a touring kayak without the storage problem. If you live in an apartment, drive a small car, or fly to paddling destinations, the Convertible Elite gives you 15 feet of boat in a duffel bag. It is also a strong pick for couples or a parent and kid who want one boat that works solo or tandem, and for light touring with camping gear.
