Amazon.com Product Description
The perfect entry point into the world of recreational kayaking, the 8-Foot Yak Board sit-on-top recreational kayak is fun and stable in calm water and surf alike. The kayak is made of medium-density polyethylene, a virtually indestructible material that's somewhat flexible (so it doesn't crack), but also maintains its stiffness thanks to Ocean Kayak's compound curves.


The Yak Board sit-on-top kayak is safe for use in both calm water and surf.
The materials are complemented by a California-form tri-hull design, which includes a long center keel area that encourages boats to track straight when paddling and coasting. The result? A kayak that steers well and is easy to control on the waves regardless of whether you're just starting out or are an experienced paddler. The kayak's unique sit-on-top design, meanwhile, allows you to enter and exit the kayak easily from the shore, dock, or water. In a sit-on-top kayak, you can safely enjoy all the pleasures of kayaking without having to learn difficult self-rescue maneuvers.

The Yak Board is also outfitted with a large molded-in seat well to keep you secure, along with molded-in foot wells that provide a comfortable foot position for just about any size paddler. Other construction details include a gear strap that allows you to secure items to the deck of the boat; self-bailing drain holes in the cockpit; and a molded-in cupholder. The Yak Board comes in sunrise and yellow colors.

Specifications:

  • Max capacity: 225 to 240 pounds
  • Length: 8 feet
  • Width: 30 inches
  • Seat width: 23.125 inches
  • Weight: 40 pounds

5.0 out of 5 stars a great surf toy, August 15, 2010

This review is from: Ocean Kayak 8-Feet Yak Board Sit-On-Top Recreational Kayak (Sports)
My dad has two of these, they were both purchased back around '99 and live at his beach home. They make a perfect boat for the short sharp surf of york beach, ME and when the waves are dead we will take them for short paddles over to the Nubble light or down to york harbor.
My dad got them for free diving (snorkeling) as they make a great float and are easy to reboard from the water.
For small to medium surf the yak is great, I can even catch waves on days that the waves are too small for surfers to stand up. I only had one day that the waves were too big and that was with a hurricane off shore kicking up huge 8'+ waves so large the surfers were catching the first break out of sight of the beach.
You will want to get the rubber seat, I find it is much more comfortable than the cloth "comfort" seat my dad paid extra for for one of the yaks.
I weigh 160 or so, the closer you get to the recommended max weight the slower the yak becomes, my dad was up to 230 for a... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars nice, stable, lightweight kayak, May 29, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this as a gift, and am very pleased. It is light enough for one person to carry, pretty stable on the ocean (good for waves too), and can fit inside my VW van. It would probably be best to add on a seat, because the back rest is very low otherwise. The best part is Amazon- free shipping, no tax. What a good deal!
