WHAT IS A SIT ON TOP?

A Sit On Top literally translates to “sitting on top”.

Historically, kayaks are sit-ins, meaning you sit in them.

The paddler must slide his legs through the manhole, the legs are then under the deck of the kayak. This position gives beginners the feeling of being trapped and they are afraid of being stuck in the kayak in case of capsize.

A sit-on-top kayak is a double-hulled boat. It includes the seat, footrests and other storage spaces directly designated and molded onto the deck.

The Sit On Top allows beginners to discover the activity without fear or constraints. (Mojito / Makao / Duetto).

The Sit On Top is not just a boat for beginners. Enjoy the activity without fear or constraints.

Depending on the shapes and forms, high-performance models exist for expeditions, hiking and fitness. (Disco + / Mid-Way / Tempo).

The majority of Sit On Tops are equipped with self-draining wells. These are holes designed and ideally placed so that water can drain from the cockpit of the boat.

This makes the kayak unsinkable. If you become desalinated or simply want to go for a swim, it is easy to get back into your boat, even in deep water.
