1. iRocker Nautical 10’6″ Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board – Best Overall Cheap Paddle Board<\/h3>\n\n\nirocker nautical 106\n<\/a>\n\n\n

iRocker is a well-known inflatable stand up paddle board company. The Nautical brand is for people new to paddle boarding or looking for an economically priced board that doesn\u2019t compromise quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nautical 10\u20196<\/a> is an excellent inflatable stand up paddle board for lakes, bays, or the marina. It also has good stability, so you can comfortably take it out on the ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 10\u20196 length means that the Nautical has excellent maneuverability. Thanks to the 32\u201d width and 240 lbs maximum weight capacity,<\/strong> you have the space to carry a passenger, including a kid or dog, safely. iRocker recommends the 10\u20196 length for riders up to 5\u20198\u201d tall and offers a longer 11\u20196 version<\/a> for anyone taller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nautical 10\u20196 is very well built and uses dual-layer military-grade PVC, so it should last you for a long time. I was impressed with the excellent feature specification for the money. There are front and rear bungee storage areas, so you have loads of room to securely store your essential gear. These also have grab handles for a passenger to hold on to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was pleased to see a universal action mount included on this inflatable board. This is perfect for fitting an action camera to film your adventures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accessory package with the Nautical 10\u20196 has pretty much everything you need. The 3-piece fiberglass paddle<\/strong> has a tough nylon blade and floats if you drop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For its price, the Nautical 10\u20196 has really excellent performance. This is a great stand up paddle board to learn on, but you don\u2019t need to worry about outgrowing it quickly. The Nautical 10\u20196 is still a tremendous, competitively priced paddle board for experienced paddlers too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
