Saimaa Kayaks Sit on Top 1 (SOT) is a 270cm long, playful and durable open kayak, suitable for short kayaking trips and fun together on the cottage beach. The hull is made of durable polyethylene and the kayak has no removable fins, rudder or other parts that can be lost or broken, so its use is very carefree. The Sit on Top is agile in its movements and easy to paddle for both children and adults. Also a good choice for rental companies.
A “sit on top” kayak is perfect for people who don’t want to climb into the kayak through a small opening or feel uncomfortable sitting inside the kayak. A sit on top kayak is easy to get into from the dock and go paddling!
The kayak can be used with or without the soft seat included in the equipment package; the bottom has a shaped seating area with a low backrest for the lower back. In front of the bench there is a drink bottle holder, a small waterproof storage compartment and a bungee net at the back, under which it is easy to attach camping equipment. Thanks to the two rod/bait holders, fishing is also possible with an open kayak. The rod holders are conveniently located right behind the bench on the sides of the kayak.
The equipment package includes a lightweight two-piece aluminum paddle with plastic blades, which is 222cm long and weighs 950g. The paddle shaft has a grip for the right hand, three different blade angle adjustments and water runoff prevention on the blade. The paddle gives you a very comfortable grip and a good feel for paddling.
