Nautiqua | ARUBA | Deluxe Paddleboard Fishing Pedal Kayak | Red
Description
The Nautiqua ARUBA is a one-of-a-kind inflatable fishing paddleboard pedal kayak built for adults who want hands-free, pedal-powered fishing without the bulk of a traditional boat. Constructed with a drop-stitch middle inflatable core and 1.2 mm thick side inflatable chambers, the ARUBA delivers exceptional rigidity, stability, and durability on the water. Its direct drive pedal system lets you cruise forward and backward through tides, currents, waves, and surf with minimal effort - leaving your hands completely free to focus on the catch.
Designed for solo anglers and outdoor enthusiasts, the ARUBA packs everything you need into a package that weighs just 27.5 lbs and fits into its included shoulder carry bag. Set it up in minutes, toss it in your car trunk, and head to your favorite fishing spot - whether that's a calm lake, coastal bay, or open surf. With rod holders, bungee cords, a detachable seat, and plenty of front deck space, the ARUBA is as practical as it is fun.

FAQ
How long does it take to inflate the ARUBA?
The ARUBA inflates in just a few minutes using the included dual action hand pump. All three chambers - the middle drop-stitch core and two side chambers - inflate quickly, and the board is ready to hit the water soon after you arrive at your spot.
Can the pedal system handle currents and waves?
Yes. The direct drive pedal system is specifically designed to handle tides, currents, waves, and surf. Because it's a chain-free sealed system, it's also corrosion-resistant and low-maintenance compared to traditional chain-driven kayak pedal drives.
Is the ARUBA stable enough to fish from while seated or standing?
The ARUBA's three-chamber design - including the rigid 6" drop-stitch middle core and wide 45" beam - provides excellent stability for seated fishing. The wide platform also offers solid footing if you want to stand while casting. The 330 lb carry load capacity gives you plenty of room for gear as well.
Can the seat be removed, and is it comfortable for long trips?
Yes - the seat is fully adjustable and detachable. You can dial in the fit for extended fishing sessions, and when you're done on the water, it detaches completely and can be used as a standalone beach chair. It's designed with all-day comfort in mind.
How do I transport and store the ARUBA when it's not in use?
When deflated, the ARUBA packs down into the included deluxe shoulder carry bag. The total package weight is just 29 lbs, and it fits easily in a car trunk. Storage at home is equally simple - no roof rack, trailer, or garage space required.
What does the warranty cover?
