Hop in the Necky Manitou 14 Kayak and bring your paddling skills to the next level without giving up the stability and comfort of a recreational boat. Newbies and veteran paddlers alike will enjoy the Manitou 14’s comfortable cockpit thanks to Necky’s XtraComfort adjustable seat and Comfort Fit thigh braces. Sealed hatches on both the bow and stern give you plenty of gear storage for a long day tour or a light overnight, and a drop-down skeg provides great tracking in rougher water. Adjustable foot pedals help you dial in the perfect fit, and bungee decking keeps your essentials within reach. When you’re cruising comfortably, the integrated cup holder secures your beverage.

Bottom Line: For long days and light tours, the Manitou 14 is your ride of choice.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

This is the manitou "select" 14. Same thing, just made with recycled plastic. I took it out to a lake near my house right after work the next day I got it. Very smooth, fast, and tracks nicely. The lake is a small one in northern Virginia called Accotink. Best. Name. Ever. :)

Hey Jerry,
So I first of all have to ask, have you adjusted the seat as much as possible. Moving it back might make it easier for you to utilize those braces. If you have done that, the other option you have is to remove those all together and replace them with some lower profile form of padding. This can be purchased from any white water supplier. I hope these were helpful suggestions.
Good Luck.

Manitou 14 on Lake Lewisville in Little Elm, Texas

By:
October 1, 2010

I bought the Necky Manitou 14 last year and have used it on the lake quite a few times. I'm 56 and a relative beginner, and this kayak works very well for me. Just make sure you practice the self-rescue before you get out in the middle of nowhere. My only complaint is that the self-rescue is a bit difficult due to the high seat back. Other than that, I love it!
