Suggested Accessories

Pump

Bravo 10D Pump
Fast to inflate and equipped with an integrated pressure gauge, the Bravo 10D is the ideal pump for the Chelan 120. We specifically tested this pump with the Chelan and found it to be functionally superior to any other model we’ve used, making inflation quicker, easier, and more accurate. See more here

Paddles

For optimal performance, we recommend a 230–240cm, two-piece kayak paddle. This length suits the Chelan’s width and the elevated seating position, while the split design complements the kayak’s compact transport and storage.
Both Bravo and Palm paddles are excellent choices, offering reliable performance at two different price points.
