14' Saturn Triton Inflatable Ocean Kayak (TROK420)
We're excited to announce the new model 14' Saturn Ocean Kayak with our Triton upgrades is back in stock! It's been challenging to keep up with the demand for this product and they will likely sell out again this summer but we've got more arriving throughout the year.
The Triton Series upgrades represent over $350 additional value and include: upgraded PVC construction ($75 value), heat-welded seam technology ($150 value), Leafield D7 inflation valves ($50 value), and an extended 3-year warranty ($100 value). The boat technical specifications are nearly identical between the Triton model (TROK420) and our standard version (OK420). These Triton series improvements incorporate the newest technologies in inflatable kayak construction and provide an incredible value for those looking to put their kayak to the test.
The list price includes 1 highback foam kayak seat ($50 value), which is a must for this particular kayak if you're going out on the ocean for long. This is a commercial-grade inflatable kayak designed specifically for ocean use. The 14' Saturn Ocean Kayak has some new improvements, including our upgraded inflation valves and our upgraded Heytex PVC. The self-bailing floor has been eliminated for this model to prevent water from entering the kayak through the bottom, especially when carrying 2-3 people or a full load of gear.
Why No Self-Bailing Floor? Unlike whitewater kayaking, where significant water intrusion is expected, ocean kayaking benefits from a non-self-bailing design. This feature prevents standing water from seeping into the kayak, which is especially important when approaching maximum load capacity or carrying substantial gear. A dry interior enhances performance, buoyancy, and comfort, making this kayak perfect for extended ocean adventures.
While this kayak is not self-bailing, it is still suitable for the ocean and also for flat rivers, bays, and streams. The TROK420 now features 2 removable directional fins to provide greater directional stability and reduce seesaw action you'll experience in competitor products. You can use the fins or remove them when kayaking in rocky or shallow conditions. The newly designed catamaran-hull feature helps with stability and reduces friction with the water.
Portability and Convenience This kayak is the most portable ocean-ready tandem inflatable kayak on the market. It inflates/deflates in under 5 minutes. Lightweight and compact, it easily stores in the trunk of your car or SUV, making it perfect for spontaneous getaways. In fact, it's light enough that one of our happy customers "recently travelled with it to Maui, Hawaii on Southwest Airlines and didn't even pay a penny to get it to and from. The kayak added some amazing experiences on our trip unlike any other item we've ever traveled with." The new Heytex heavy-duty PVC is an improved material over our prior models and has proven to handle commercial-grade conditions along with rocky or bony water. Our drop-stitch customized floor is over 5" thick and can be pressurized to over 6 psi, making it among the most rigid inflatable ocean kayaks on the market. The floor’s thickness provides the buoyancy needed to keep the waterline well below the top surface of the floor. The TROK420 series kayak also comes with pre-installed heavy-duty D-rings to accept the included kayak seat and cargo (a second seat can be added for $50).
If you are looking to use the kayak in river rapids and need a self-bailing design, please consider the 13' Saturn Whitewater Kayak.

Customer FAQ: How is the Ocean Kayak TROK420 different from your Expedition RK, Fishing FK kayaks, or Whitewater WK kayaks?
Answer: The biggest difference is the position of the floor, the floor thickness (5"), and the intent to use the highback kayak seats instead of inflatable thwarts or aluminum bench seats. The thicker floor provides much greater buoyancy, which is great when 2 adults are using it in tandem. The TROK420 is also longer than most models, providing greater leg capacity when paddling tandem and advantageous for more gear hauling. The removable fin design is really helpful for flatwater use or in the ocean. The inflatable floor is directly exposed to the bottom area you are kayaking, so it doesn't have the same protection as the FK396 or WK396 models which have added second layers. This isn't critical for most customers as the single layer of material can easily handle most lake/ocean use. Consider the other models if you want to bang around on the rocks/coral with limited concern. For true river use in rapids where significant water will need to be removed quickly for performance, the 13' Saturn Whitewater Kayak is recommended.

Installing the Removable Fin: Insert the fin before inflating your kayak. Fold the deflated kayak floor at the slot entrance fin base, then slide the fin and attach as shown in the example pictures below (please note the photo below shows 3 fins as is for informational purposes only regarding installation of the single fin included in this model). Unfold the kayak and inflate; it's that simple.
