Sit-In Kayaks FAQs

Are sit-in kayaks good for beginners?

Yes, sit-in kayaks are excellent for beginners. They reflect the original design developed by Arctic peoples for boating in cold and rough waters, and provide the best speed, maneuverability, and protection from splashing.

Will I get wet in a sit-in kayak?

The enclosed cockpit of the sit-in kayak protects the lower body from water even if it splashes over the top of the hull. We can’t guarantee that you won’t get wet, but it does make it less likely than in open-top models of similar size.

What are sit-in kayaks best used for?

Sit-in kayaks are your best option if you’re looking for speed and efficiency. The design basically turns the boat into an extension of your lower body, so the craft is highly responsive to steering. The shape of sit-in kayaks is also more sleek than the sit-on-top models which are generally designed for fishing, so they cut through the water more efficiently for touring excursions. The enclosed hull also provides better protection in cold conditions.

Is it difficult to get in and out of a sit-in kayak?

Getting in and out of a sit-in kayak is a bit more challenging compared to a sit-on-top model, as the latter tend to be more stable. To avoid flipping, we suggest laying the paddle crosswise across the top of the kayak, like a bridge, and scooting in front of it one leg at a time. If you’re new to kayaking, it’s a good idea to practice this a few times in calm, shallow water before venturing out.

Do sit-in kayaks have storage space?

While we can’t speak for all sit-in kayaks, RotoCraft models do include storage space for your belongings, and some also have accessory rails that can be used to attach additional storage units. Please check the “includes” drop down on the product page for details on the specific type and amount of storage available in each model.
