The Islander Kayaks Koa Beach is a tough sit-on-top for groups and rental, at the beach or paddling on local waterways. The Koa’s compact design means it's easy to handle on or off the water, with a comfortable cockpit that fits a range of paddlers. But don’t be fooled, the Koa cuts smoothly through the water and jumps easily over the surf – you’ll feel the performance of a much bigger boat.
Features:
Shaped for the surf: The Koa's bow jumps over waves and cuts through choppy water. In the surf, water sheds quickly from the deck, putting you in control.
Contoured integral seat: Comfortable to paddle without an added foam backrest, the seat area is sculpted to give you support and a good sitting position.
Ergonomic mould-in footbrace: Four foot positions with heel and toe support so that all paddlers, large or small, can feel comfortable, connected and in control.
Side, bow and stern grab handles: Smooth, simple and strong; flush handles that let you carry your kayak like a suitcase, drag on or off water, and help lift it up or down from a roof rack.
Mount point for phone/camera: Capture the moment or record you journey – a 6 mm threaded attachment point compatible with a number of different accessory mounts (camera mount not included).
Bow bungee paddle park: Elastic bungee cord at the front of the Koa gives you somewhere to easily stash your paddle or stow a drybag.
Stern tankwell: Space to stow things out of the way right behind you in the tankwell. The bungee cord will keep things from moving around and is a good place to clip your drybag into.
Self-bailing scupper holes: Any water that ends up in your sitting area will drain away through the self draining scupper holes. Supplied with rubber scupper-bungs to plug these holes if you need to.
Drain bung: From time to time, should any water end up inside your sit-on-top, you can drain the water out just by standing it on end.
Drink/accessory holder: With bungeed cord fastenings, this spot, easily reachable from where you paddle, is perfect for a water bottle.
D-ring accessory attachment points: Sturdy stainless steel clip points for attaching your seat or other accessories.
