New eye-catching graphic design and enhanced adjustable footrests make installation and removal easier. This kayak also features a center carry handle for effortless one-handed carrying and four daisy chain loop tie-downs at the bow and stern to simplify securing dry bags, camping gear, coolers, and more.
The RazorLite™ Kayak’s Straight Hull Design
A standout feature of the RazorLite™ Kayak is its precision straight-hull design, giving it the maximum possible waterline length for speed and efficiency. Combined with its ultra-narrow 25″ width at the waterline, the RazorLite™ delivers performance on par with the fastest rigid kayaks. The molded bow and stern are crafted from durable plastic, engineered to slice through wind, waves, and currents with the clean, effortless precision of a razor’s edge. With its optimized length-to-width ratio, razor-sharp bow entry, flat planing surface, and finely tapered stern exit, this inflatable kayak stands in a performance class all its own.
Bow and Stern Molds
The RazorLite Kayak’s rigid bow and stern molds are engineered for unmatched speed and precision. Its razor-sharp bow slices cleanly through the water, while the tapered side walls create lift and minimize drag for a faster, more efficient ride. As water flows seamlessly to the stern, it exits with almost no wake, leaving you with maximum speed, control, and smooth glide in every stroke.
The World’s First and Only Kayak Made Entirely Of Drop Stitch Material
The patented Sea Eagle RazorLite™ High-Performance Ultra-Light Kayak is the world’s first and only inflatable kayak built entirely with advanced Drop Stitch Technology. Featuring a 3″ Drop Stitch floor and 4″ Drop Stitch sidewalls, this kayak is reinforced with thousands of high-tensile threads that lock the fabric layers together to form rock-solid I-beam construction. Unlike traditional inflatables, the RazorLite™ inflates to 10 psi—more than double the pressure of standard kayaks—giving it exceptional rigidity and speed that rivals hard-shell designs.
Lightweight, ultra-tough, and packable into its own backpack, the RazorLite™ combines performance and portability in one sleek design. With its razor-sharp handling, remarkable durability, and effortless glide, this kayak delivers an elite paddling experience anywhere your adventure takes you. U.S. Patent 9,452,809

The RazorLite™ Kayak’s Unique Bow and Stern Design with Tapered Side Walls
The RazorLite™ Kayak’s patented rigid bow and stern molds introduce the world’s first speed entry system, engineered for unmatched efficiency on the water. At the bow, a double concave design channels pockets of air between the hull and the surface, creating natural lift while dramatically reducing drag. This transitions seamlessly into a flat planing surface for maximum glide. At the stern, the double concave delivers a clean, razor-sharp exit that leaves minimal wake. Combined with tapered Drop Stitch sidewalls that form a rigid chine at the waterline—adding both buoyancy and stability—the RazorLite™ achieves a level of speed, control, and effortless paddling that puts it in a class of its own.
