The 12’ SOTAR SL IK strikes a great balance between roomy comfort and responsive performance. Weighing 50 pounds and boasting a 485-pound load capacity, this inflatable kayak is built for paddlers who want space—whether it’s for long-legged comfort, multi-day gear, or a furry co-pilot. Ideal for self-supported river trips, the 12’ SL IK gives you the freedom to go farther.
The added length delivers increased stability without compromising maneuverability, making this kayak a pleasure to paddle in both mellow flows and more dynamic water. The sleek, smooth bottom enhances glide and tracking, while the adjustable cockpit ensures a secure, comfortable fit for long sessions on the river. It’s a great blend of float and finesse.
Whether you're packing dry bags for a weekend overnighter or just want a little more room to stretch out, the 12’ SL IK is ready for the journey. It's a stable, high-capacity inflatable kayak designed for real-world adventures—efficient, durable, and ready to rally when the river calls. For paddlers who want comfort without compromising performance, this is the one.
Designs:
Two tone
Main + accents: tube panels are the main color, and the accent color goes on the floor, seat, seams, logo, hardware patches, etc.
Three tone (red #1/white #2/dark blue #3 as an example): front tube panels red #1, middle white #2, rear dark blue #3; white #2 hardware, seams, logo, end cones, etc.; red #1 seat; dark blue #3 floor.
Lime green is only available in the lightweight material (like the Merlin and Rogue series boats) and costs 10% less.
I race and run the 11' SL myself. New to IKs? Read what to look for in a whitewater inflatable kayak.
