Love this boat!

I love this boat! I am a 66 year old female and wanted a boat that I could lift to the top of my car, tracks well, is well made and comfortable. This boat has met every one of those requirements -- and it's great to look at as well. I've had it on reservoirs and even some Class 1 rapids on the Colorado River and it handles like a dream. Just the right size for me -- I'm 5'5". But all of my friends have tried it out, and it has fit men up to 5'10" as well.

Nice and light but has safety issues

I am a beginning kayaker, 5'4" and 150 lbs. I bought this kayak because it is among the very lightest on the market; I am a 65-year-old woman and it's important to me to be able to load it on top of my car and carry it to the launch point by myself. That part is great! but the boat has several serious flaws that others should consider before buying: 1. The model I was delivered has no deck lines--only bungees for strapping gear. Sure I can add them, but REI and Eddyline shouldn't be selling kayaks without deck lines! This is a real safety issue. 2. The boat's proportions--very short with a large cockpit, and a seatback that sticks up above the cockpit opening--make it *impossible for me to self-rescue.* I worked for *four hours* with an expert instructor, and I simply could not get back into my Sky 10 after capsizing. However I was able to do it with her kayak, so I know it's not me. Conclusion: this is a kayak for sheltered, calm water only, and not for going out alone in.

Light weight kayak you can bring to everywhere

4 years ago

I have been kayaking with Sky 10 for more than 6 months. It is light weight, stable and fast compare to my sit-on-top Ocean kayak. I can paddle at 4mph average with it on flat water for an hour. The reason I upgraded to this kayak is portable, it is easy to car top, and can carry to the water front myself without issue. During the pandemic I have been using it in around many water trails in SF bay, Morro bay, Lake Tahoe, Monterey bay, Moss landing, Harmon bay. It is the best investment I have in 2020.

Exceptional for what it is

3 years ago

The major attraction of this kayak to me was its portability, and in that regard it really delivers. Is it worth the steep price tag? I guess if you can afford it, go for it - it was worth it to me. The size, weight, and width all mean that I am able to quickly grab it from my basement, angle it around half a dozen obstacles and doorways, put it in my Outback, and head to the water very quickly. I even took it right from my REI to a local river and was on the water with no preparation. It's also super easy to balance and carry long distances if I can't park close to the water, which is great since parking at my favorite spots is usually a disaster. Once in the water, it feels very stable once your legs are positioned right with the foot pads (not sure why people say there aren't any). It is very fast (I can do about 4 miles/hour at a decent but not strenuous pace) and I think it tracks pretty well, but it does sway side to side a bit with really strong strokes. The seat comfort is AWESOME. I can easily do a few hours at a time with minimal discomfort. The storage compartments are pretty good, but I don't think I'll be doing any overnight winter kayaking trips since my winter gear is too bulky, but it easily fits my summer bag and lightweight tent (both in compression sacks) as well as a couple days worth of food, all my cooking stuff, and my chair in the webbing behind me. I attached a photo to show that it does in fact fit in the back of my Subaru, we well as one just to show that I've actually used it (and because I think it's an awesome picture.) Overall, I'm super happy with it and love it - even if it did take me a while to pay it off. 8^)

Perfect lightweight Kayak!

2 years ago

I’m a 6ft, 220 male in his 60’s and researched many kayaks for lake kayaking and decided on the Eddyline Sky 10 due to the quality U.S.A. construction, lightweight and 10’ length. I considered the Eddyline Skylark, but the additional 10 pounds would have been a little difficult for lifting out of the water by myself. My legs are a little too long for the fixed pedals, but I just rest them on the bottom of the boat.

Great on the Lake

1 year ago

This is a wonderful recreational kayak. At 57y.o., 5'4, 114lbs, I found it to be very stable, easy to maneuver and relatively comfortable. Some of the cons for me: The seat is not very comfortable after an hour of paddling; there is no padding for my knees (padding is minimal throughout); and the length to weight ratio makes it difficult for me to rack on top of my Volvo XC60 (that being a relatively low vehicle... I am looking at other rack options). I have been paddling on flat lake waters without any problems, so I can definitely recommend it for that. I would say that the biggest downfall is the lack of padding for the seat, hips and knees.

Perfect fit!

I love my new Sky 10 kayak! It fits my size perfectly and is a very comfortable ride. I especially like the padded and adjustable back rest. At only 32 pounds I can transport and launch it with ease. It is stable and sleek,

Great Kayak for Solo Handling

3 years ago

In the short period of time that I have owned a Sky 10 I have been well satisfied. I picked her up on Nov 4th and was able to get three paddles in before the end of the year. The primary criteria was the weight of 32 lbs since I wanted a kayak I could handle by myself. The length of 10 feet also made it easy to slide into my 2020 Honda CRV (I was not a fan of putting it on my roof). The cockpit size was big enough to enter and exit adequately. And the two dry bulkheads were a nice feature on such a small boat. I am looking forward to many more journeys in the new year.

Awesome Light Weight Kayak

3 years ago

I love how light weight this kayak is. I can load and unload it myself and it tracks amazingly well for a rudderless kayak. My only regret is that I didn't get it sooner. I really love my "Sunny the Kayak."

Eddieline Sky 10

1 year ago

I bought about a month ago to replace my old pelican recreational kayak which was my first kayak. Several friends of mine have the Sky 10. I am a very small person, just under 5’. I love this kayak, it transports easily, light weight and fits me so well. It tracks beautifully and is fast and the Teal is beautiful. I went with a longer sized paddle than recommended for my size and this thing flys. Seat is comfortable. I highly recommend. My only issue was with the freight company, they didn’t seem to know where it was and when it did arrive, the box was barely sealed on the end and a hole in the bottom of box. Not well packaged it was a miracle it was undamaged.

Mellow Yellow

1 year ago

I got my Sky 10 two weeks ago. I’ve had it out in the local bay a few times, on calm days and one blustery day. It was a bit squirrelly at first (I’ve had a 12 foot 75 pound plastic battleship for several years) but I found my tipping point pretty fast and it handles really well now. Even though it’s two feet shorter than my old boat, it tracks really straight and at just 32 ponds it’s super fast. What a treat to carry it down to the shore with just one hand! And getting on top of my 4Runner is no problem either. Love this boat! We’re going to be best friends for a very long time.

Great Kayak

4 years ago

I love this kayak; light-weight, tracks well, comfortable, and always gets positive comments from other boaters. Great kayak! Just one nit to share. The carry handles are attached to the boat via a piece of nylon rope. Works fine. But, when traveling with the boat on my car's roof the handles, if not secured, will flap in the wind and make a horrible noise. Eddyline - how about a small upgrade to include the bungy- style carry-handle system. This solves this problem at minimal cost and results in a perfect boat. I still give it 5 stars.
