Moken 12.5 Kayak with Rudder

The Moken 12.5 Kayak with Rudder from Feelfree creates a new category of kayak: the KUV, or kayak utility vehicle. This angling-oriented 'yak lets you fish freely and frequently but also serves fabulously as pleasure paddle craft for when the family wants to spend the weekend on the water. You can tote the food and a few rods, while your honey's Moken carries the tent and cooking gear. Fishing or quality family time, you'll enjoy every moment of it in the fully-equipped, nicely navigable Moken 12.5

Long and lean, the polyethylene hull cuts through ocean chop and glass-like lakes with ease, without compromising the stability you need for casting. The King Fisher seat supports your back and bum for a comfortable ride, all day long. The cockpit contains a standing platform if you prefer casting from a standing position. The Smart Track rudder lets you hew a straight line or stay in one place when a constant current pushes at the hull. You control the rudder with your toes so you don't lose forward momentum to direction control. The Uni Track Adapter lets you add fishing finery freely, as you don't need an tools, regardless of what brand accessory you prefer, Scotty or RAM or someone else.

A gaping bow hatch offers ample room for camping gear or your secret fish call. The hatch cover securely fastens to the boat with three discrete points of contact for a reliably dry seal. The stern tankwell is the perfect place for a cooler and a milk crate, while the dry-seal center console gives you more room for tackle boxes, nippers, pliers, and a tape measure to verify the guppy you caught was the full 3 inches you claim it to be. Molded-in grab handles make carrying this watercraft easy, but given the Wheel in the Keel transport system, one has to ask—why in the world are you schlepping this boat?
