Are inflatable kayaks durable enough for regular use?

Reviewer consensus

Verified-purchase reviewers of the higher-volume Intex models report years of seasonal use from tough PVC/vinyl construction, though they consistently advise avoiding rocks, oyster beds and dragging on pavement. Premium full drop-stitch models are marketed as more rigid and puncture-resistant, but those candidates have very few reviews, so durability claims there are not yet well corroborated.
