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¢.

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.

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. :)

I purchased the Necky Manitou 14 last year and absolutely love it. I am 5'4" and 125 lbs. It is a dream in the water very comfortable seat even after 4 hours. I have been very pleased with how it performs on large lakes even in windy rough conditions. The down side though is the weight, getting it on top of a car is not too bad however lifting it up on top of our SUV definitly a 2 person job.

Got to tell you De Graaf, this is one solid kayak for around a grand. Has the dropdown skeg for additional tracking. You will have plenty of room in this one. Measures around 35" front to rear inside on cockpit. Plenty of room to stretch your legs out when you need to.
