Necky Manitou 13 Composite Kayak
Paddling is fun, but you dread the awkward, “Oh hell I’m about to lose it,” loading and unloading of a heavy kayak. Necky made the Manitou 13 Composite Kayak with advanced composite fiberglass that keeps this craft to a modest 39lb. Strong, stiff layers and an additional core layer in key areas increase the Manitou’s durability for seasons of touring expeditions. As compared to a plastic, composite fiberglass makes for a more responsive, smoother-gliding ride in the water. As far as the hull goes, this kayak’s extended keel helps with tracking and a high-volume bow easily deflects water. And let’s not forget the cushioned seat, supportive back band, thigh braces, and adjustable foot pedals.
Bottom Line: Shark-like gliding in the water, dream-like handling out.
