Native Watercraft Manta Ray 11 Kayak

The sleek V-hull design of the Native Watercraft Manta Ray 11 Kayak cuts through water like a samurai sword through sake. Track smoothly along the river bank or coast with your fishing gear or cooler in the stern tankwell, or ride a beach wave for a fun surf.

Bottom Line: Slice-n-glide.

Has anyone try to get back on this kayak in open water?
It looks like this kayak can't be filled with water, so is it unsinkable?

This boat falls under the category of "sit-on-top" kayaks. One of the pluses for this style of kayak is that they are very stable, and in the event of a capsize, they are very easy to climb back on top of. The structure of the boat is hollow with few openings into the inner chamber. And to answer your second questions simply, it would be very difficult to sink this boat. However if the front hatch (gray and black rubber piece) is not secured properly, the boat could sink more easily.

This boat has adjustable foot braces that should be able to adjust far enough for you. However the only true way to know is to try sitting in the boat, or find measurements and match them to your inseam.

Amateur Kayaker

By:
July 23, 2009

This is my first Kayak purchase. I only kayaked once before and I intended this purchase to possibly be a lifetime investment as I'm 62.

I have launched it in a man-made lake, natural lake, and the Susquehanna River. I have it tracking straight and it handles extremely well in shallow water in creeks. The seat is comfortable and I typically paddle for 1-2 hours with no soreness. I like the ride on top for ease of launching and exiting. Its very stable but I have not yet ventured into rough waters. The kayak is well made and designed and I believe it will serve me for years to come.

Is there a specific model of kayak that would be more appropriate

Is there a specific model of kayak that would be more appropriate for people with back problems? I'm a beginning paddler, but I'd like to find a good-quality kayak that I can sit in for longer periods of time, hopefully with some lumbar support. Mostly going to use for canals and some ocean paddling (nothing very strenuous yet).

A lot of times, back pain can result from incorrect posture as well as the kayaks outfitting. when you're paddling it can be very helpful to keep your feet on the braces and pushing to keep your back against the seat back in order to have a "dinner-table" posture. To answer your question, this seat does have decent support, however posture has a lot to do with back pain as well.

This kayak has quite a bit of support, and it good for all levels of paddlers. The back is almost like a chair, with very good padding to keep you in the saddle longer.
