NRS MaverIK II Inflatable Kayak
Awesome IK

As far as inflatable kayaks go, I think this is the best one out there... better than Aire, Sotar, Maravia, whatever. They're incredibly durable, and will take abuse for years and years.
They track well, and are great to learn in. I think they're pretty forgiving, but even if you end up in the river, they're easy to flip over and get back into.
And if you're already good, I've seen people catch some absolutely amazing surfs in holes that would flip a raft. It's a great little boat.
