High-tech touring boat for sporty individualists in a complete set with tarpaulin, spray deck and rudder system.
The inflatable, single-seater Drop-Stitch kayak California is the closest thing to a solid boat. It is lighter, stiffer, and therefore faster than conventional inflatable boats. The perfect, expedition-ready inflatable boat for all sporty individualists looking for a good-natured, very stable kayak with plenty of space and many uses.

High space for one adult:
The inflatable touring kayak was designed for one – albeit very large – adult or for a parent with a child. The long hull offers enough space – even for luggage. In addition, a dog can easily be taken on tour. Dog claws cannot harm our durable drop-stitch material.
For coastal waters, lakes and rivers:
The California cuts a perfect figure both on day trips on lakes and the sea and as a touring boat for one- and multi-day river hikes.
Tip-resistant and enormously stable:
The high gunwales of the California ensure a dry ride, and the widened bottom increases basic stability. Its construction makes the inflatable kayak extremely tip-resistant even in strong waves. The 3-season boat glides almost without resistance on the water.
With bow and stern deck:
The standard bow and stern decks offer sufficient storage space for luggage and protect against splash water. The boat comes with an additional rigid splash guard for the bow deck. Bungees on both decks offer additional space for luggage.
Proven drop-stitch construction:
Boat bottom and walls are made of PVC in drop-stitch construction. This allows an operating pressure of 0.7 bar to be achieved. Conventional inflatable boats are only pressurized with 0.2 to 0.3 bar. This makes the solo kayak very dimensionally stable and extremely resistant.
Small packing size and quick assembly:
Due to its small packing size and quick assembly time, the California is the perfect travel companion. It fits in any car or motorhome.
Rudder system:
The kayak is equipped with rudder preparation as standard and is delivered in a set with a rudder system. This can be installed in a few minutes without tools. The system simplifies steering, as currents and wind can easily be compensated without having to correct with the double paddle.
Tarpaulin and spray deck:
This set also includes a tarpaulin and matching spray decks. The all-round Velcro fastening and the hatch in Bigdeck size then protect the paddler from splash water and bad weather. In conjunction with the precise rudder system, the California becomes a fully fledged expedition boat.
Complete set with boat and accessories:
In addition to the boat, comprehensive accessories are included as standard: The Verano backpack trolley with zipper as well as rolling and carrying system ensures easy transport. The kayak double paddle with fiberglass shaft and a length of 240 cm can be disassembled into four parts. With the supplied double-action high-pressure pump, the desired operating pressure is reached within a few minutes. The package also includes a repair kit.
Further product features:
The California comes standard with a comfort seat including a removable seat height adjustment and back pocket. A comfortable footrest provides good support when paddling. At both ends of the boat, a robust neoprene carrying handle is installed. The drain plug in the boat bottom allows easy drainage of splash water. The three high-pressure screw valves in the stern of the boat serve for convenient and quick filling and emptying of the three air chambers. The removable central fin supports the straight-line stability of the kayak.
Warranty and Support:
We offer a 2-year Verano manufacturer's warranty on all our inflatable boats. This warranty covers manufacturing defects that the inflatable showed at the time of purchase. In addition, our after-sales team offers customer support after purchase.
