When I started in this boating game I took a long while investigating small tenders for small boats and to be honest on our 24 foot sealine and our 19 foot bow rider all were two big. We have now been using an itiwit 3 person blow up kayak as a tender and it works very well indeed. We think thay are so good that we bought 2 of the 2 person ones to use also on boats but also as a little fun in other locations.

They are very stable, Quite light and very robust. The large tubes make them quite easy to get in and out of. Here is a short video of them in use on the river. If you buy one get them direct from Decathlon as they are the best Price (Itiwit is a decathlon Brand) 2 person is £269 3 Person is £299. You also need a pump and paddles.

For a single person you really need the 2 person and for 2 people the 3 Person


As I said we find them to be excellent tenders and great fun as a small boat to enjoy
 
We have a 2 person blow up seylvor from decathlon-some crew prefer their paddle boards which is a shame but if weather improves I might go for a paddle later down the Lym so thanks for the reminder.

Paddle boards are indeed very good also but I tend to fall in :)...... Too Old and Too fat I think is the problem
 
Yeah I use a 2 person itiwit kayak as a tender for my 28 footer.

Ive also got an itiwit stand up paddle board which is good too.
