At Ocean Kayak, we didn't invent the original sit-on-top kayak. We just perfected
it. Innovation has been our mission since we launched our first sit-on-top in 1971.
Here are just a few of Ocean Kayak's innovation examples:
- Roto-molded
sit on top kayaks — Ocean Kayak was one of the first brands to start manufacturing and selling rotationally molded sit-on-top
kayaks.
- Our Malibu Two is the world's most popular sit-on-top. Why? We have a patented
overlapping foot wells that allow one, two and even three people (a smaller person in the middle) to fit comfortably in a
compact tandem.
- The Venus line offers the first sit on tops that were specifically designed
for women.
- Stackable hulls — several of our models were designed to be stacked. This
allows for easier storage.
- 2005 "Paddler's Pick" Award for SideKick
As a result of our 35 years of effort, today's sit-on-tops
are safer, more durable and much more enjoyable. No need to say thanks, though. Just get out there and have fun.
