Comfortable contoured seats and adjustable backrests. Deck tie-down straps and bungies. Bow and stern lines with toggle handles for carrying.

Double KayaksWe offer two styles of double kayaks, both of which are from the Easy Rider Beluga series. | 
Our Standard Belugas are just under 17 feet in length, weigh 68 pounds, have a load capacity of 600 pounds, and have built-in foam flotation in case of tipping. | | The Expedition Belugas are 18 feet, weigh 79 pounds, have a load capacity of 700 pounds, and come with bow and stern bulkheads. The longer Expedition Beluga allows for easier packing and extra carrying capacity for longer trips. | Both Belugas are the number one choice in Glacier Bay, first because they can be easily loaded onto and transported on the park kayak/camper drop off vessel. Second, their width of 32 inches allows huge load capacities. They frequently carry two kayakers and gear for 7 to 10 days. Belugas are well known for their cruising efficiency and excellent initial and final stability. Novice paddlers feel secure with its extreme stability; experienced paddlers appreciate its speed and maneuverability. The Beluga can be paddled solo to add extra packing capacity for group expeditions. Large cockpits for easy packing and entry. Comfortable contoured seats and adjustable backrests. Ruddering system with sliding foot pedals. Deck tie-down bungies. Bow and stern lines with toggle handles. Paddling vests by Extrasport; small deck dry bags by Cascade Designs; paddles by Aquabound; and sprayskirts by Feathercraft. Pumps and sponges included. |
Rental PolicyGlacier Bay Sea Kayaks provides well-maintained and clean equipment for rent. We expect the renter to return equipment in clean and good condition. Replacement costs will be charged to the renter if the item has to be replaced because of loss or irreparable damage to the rented equipment. Repairs to the fiberglass kayaks will be charged at a rate of $30 per hour. No refunds will be made for early returns. Please understand we are making a commitment that we will reserve a kayak for you for the entire length of your trip. During our short, busy summer season, we often need to redirect customers to available dates or turn away business in order to fulfill this commitment. If you do return a day or two early, you might consider keeping your kayak for a Bartlett Cove day paddle or Beardslees overnight. |
