Necky Chatham 17 Composite Kayak

Item #NEC0013 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good for day touring

By Backcountry.com Employee January 30, 2007

This boat is great for beginner and intermediate paddlers. It is wide enough for most people to feel stable in and has a good size cockpit for beginners. It has good tracking and lots of speed, which makes long days easy on the body.
