Necky Manitou Sport Kayak

Necky combines the stability of a recreational kayak with the smooth-tracking qualities of a sea kayak in its easy-to-handle Manitou Sport Kayak. An extended keel allows for smooth tracking and the high-volume bow design deflects waves as the wind picks up. Adjust the Necky Kayaks’ seat-back up, down, forward or backwards to give yourself more lumbar support and move the foot pegs to the right distance for your legs. The durable polymer hull withstands over-the-sand-and-rocks beach drags.

Bottom Line: Cut smoothly through the water and enjoy rock-solid stability.

Great Boat

By:
July 1, 2008

We test paddled a lot of boats before picking the Manitou Sport and have only grown in our liking to this great all around rec boat. Handles very well and uber-comfortable with its adjustable seat. Beginners take to it easily and experienced folks appreciate the well thought out features. To date, we've been on rivers and lakes. We expect to use it on lazy creeks and protected bays. Nice design, Necky!

Write your question here... Is the Necky Manitou Sport maneuverable enough for small (but fun) rapids? I do midwest rivers; plenty of rocks and trees to dodge!

Weight Capacity

By:
May 14, 2008

I recently purchased the Necky Manitou Sport. I am 6'1'' and around 200 pounds. I do not feel that I overwhelm the boat. I've taken the boat in somewhat windy and choppy conditions on the Columbia outside of Umatilla, and it performs and tracks well. I went kayaking with a friend who owns a fiberglass Perception Carolina. The Carolina is a faster boat, being longer, so I don't think my comparative slowness resulted from my size and weight. As far as fit is concerned, I paddled ten miles recently in relative comfort, though at over six feet you may find that your knees will protrude slightly above the cockpit rim, that is, in the most comfortable position for a taller person. I think the Sport is a good choice if one wants a relatively inexpensive boat to use in a variety of conditions. The shorter length is a plus, but the thing is still bulky, and I don't know if the extra foot or so difference between models would matter greatly. Anyway, the boat is okay for me, beginner that I am.

I'm 6'1" tall, and weigh 195#. I cannot find anything

I'm 6'1" tall, and weigh 195#. I cannot find anything about Necky's weight capacity, so I'm wondering if this boat would perform all right for me. I'm also considering the Manitou 13, but would prefer a little bit smaller boat. Any advice?

Hey, I've got a Manitou Sport and I love this yak. It tracks well and is very easy to paddle. I'm 5'10"/ 190 and I don't have any issues. I typically stick to lakes and local rivers and it works like a champ for me. I noticed, as well, that there's no weight limit set anywhere for this yak but I've got 5 other yaks and generally yaks of this size have a capacity of 300-350 lbs. I usually just pack a cooler and some other essentials for my day trips (no more than 10 lbs) and I'm set. I hope this helps...
