Sit on top kayak features an open deck where the paddler sits on top of the hull rather than inside it. This style prioritizes stability and ease of use making it popular for paddling and fishing. Without an enclosed cockpit, it is easy to get on and off, as a great choice for beginners, swimmers and those with mobility concerns. The scupper holes are self-bailing drain holes that allow water splashing into the boat to drant straight through.
