I finaly got my blackfoot 160. But, there is no review, nor video on it. I am convince i have the best inflatable kayak for my need. When i get my hands on a gopro cam, i will send you videos that will show how a great kayak it is. Luc C.

I’m not an inflatable kayak expert by any means, but I can rate the Aquaglide Blackfoot Angler 160 based on my user experience. I don’t want to name the other 2021 fishing kayak I purchased, but the Aquaglide beats it in ever way. Stability is awesome, you will never feel tippy in this boat. Stand up, sit down, legs over the side, it doesn’t matter, you’re going to feel safe and secure. It tracks like a dream, it will keep going straight even if you stop paddling. Paddling is so easy, it cuts through the water like a hot knife through butter. I would imagine it’s not far off from a plastic kayak as far as paddling and tracking goes. And if you’re into angling out of a kayak, it just doesn’t get much better than this, especially when fishing tandem. This boat gives you so many options you’ll never find yourself wishing they had built-in this or that. This boat was well thought out and engineered and you won’t be disappointed. An inflatable might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but for those that do, in my opinion, it’s the cream of the crop. Well done Aquaglide!

This summer We when out 26 times on rivers and lake. When I bought my BlackFoot 160, I was pretty sure, that this was the best Kayak for me. Now I know that I was right. As mention by Allen Maestas, it ride water as a hard Shell Kayak, and is better for my usage. I am always out on the water with my wife, and she need stability to feel safe. We even made a ride at 3 in the Kayak, with by 96 year old step mom, comfortably install in the front of the Kayak. I wouldn’t have done that with any other kayak.
Thank’s Aqua Glide, for this great Kayak

I had no idea what I was getting into when I purchased the Blackfoot 160. This is one heck of a Kayak, that can give you the confidence if in case you lose it in the choppy waters. I was with a friend who had cocooned himself from the fear of getting covid. He lost his fear of covid after kayaking with me during summer of 2021 in the water’s of Howe sound in Vancouver, BC. We are looking forward for some great expeditions this year and plan to install a trolling motor as well. I am amazed at how well it can handle swells or choppy waters and keep a straight line and the toughness of the whole kayak is at another level. This is not your average fluffy kayak that you fill air and paddle in a pond.
