Interesting!
Seems to me that blow up boats would be pushed around by the wind more than heavier solid boats. I've been thinking of getting something that I could take to local beaches to float along within a few hundred feet of beaches and maybe occasionally on a medium sized lake. Of course they would be great on a smooth as glass mill pond like in the video. Let us know how those things work in the ocean. Gotta admit, I like the high comfortable seating although it can't be as stable as a low sitting position.

Hobie might disagree but in my opinion no canoe or kayak is safe in
rough water, especially cold water. It doesn't take long to lose
breathing abilty in those circumstances. Don't ask me how I know.
Nope. One of my musician friends from when I had the guitar shop was an
avid kayaker. He'd often venture out in the ocean briefly off of
Scituate, MA but mostly stayed in the North River which during tide
changes can develop a very strong current.
One weekend he was missing in action. They found him (dead) near his
upturned kayak. His bag of weed was still dry though.
