Bahama 9.5 Sit-Inside Kayak

We think you'll quickly run out of excuses for not getting out on the water in this kayak.

Really. What excuses could you have? We list several below with our response to each:

"I can't afford a kayak."

You could own our Bahama 9.5 Sit-Inside Kayak for around the price of purchasing that daily caffeinated beverage from your local coffee shop for the next nine weeks. And you'd be burning calories rather than consuming calories. Can you really afford not to?

"I don't know how to paddle a kayak."

With its unique tri-keel "Stabilizer" hull, our kayak is extra stable and designed to enhance tracking (holding your course). Plus, with a sit-inside kayak the low center of gravity makes it easier to paddle. You'll discover it really has a short learning curve and paddlers of all ages will enjoy the freedom kayaking provides.

"I'll feel too confined in a sit-inside kayak."

Our Bahama Kayak has a roomy cockpit that makes it simple to enter and exit. Adjustable foot braces allow you to customize the cockpit for the length of your legs and give you the ability to adjust your leg position throughout the day. Tthe dashboard has also been designed to be out-of-the-way, yet easy-to-reach.

"I won't have room for all my gear."

You'll find our kayak has a huge stern tankwell with a bungee tiedown that's big enough for a storage crate, cooler or dry bag. Self-draining scuppers ensure water that enters the tankwell won't stay there for long. The dashboard provides a bungee for securing smaller personal items. A molded-in paddle rest, gear trays and cup holder are included as well. With a capacity of 300 pounds including you and your gear, our kayak will hold everything you need for a day-long trip.

"I don't like drilling holes in my kayak to mount accessories."

The dashboard on our Bahama Kayak includes two molded-in recesses for RAM Solo Mount Screwballs. This makes for an extremely easy way to add accessories without drilling.

"Kayaks just aren't comfortable."

Our kayak's Perception Zone Seating System features a high-back, adjustable, padded back support and padded bottom for exceptional comfort and support. The combing is padded around your knees and thighs (which also increases your comfort when portaging your kayak upside down on your shoulders).

"The water's too cold here to kayak."

Unlike a sit-on-top, with a sit-inside kayak you are more sheltered from cold water. You can even add an optional spray skirt (sold separately) for greater protection.

"At this price your kayak can't be durable."

Our Bahama 9.5 Sit-Inside Kayak is made from roto-molded polyethylene. That means the hull is flexible and impact resistant so it will endure years of rough handling. It's also easy to transport and store.
