We have a Sevylor "Tahiti" inflatable kayak. It is junk. Too hard to

That would be my impression. The original poster should try paddling a
normal plastic rigid version vs a blow-up in a variety of conditions.
I doubt he'd buy the blow-up.

I have both an ABS canoe and an inflatable. The ABS is a much better
paddler but difficult to store in a locker. The inflatable is hardly
worthless but the price the ask for them reflects the relative value.
ABS - $1500
PVC - $150
