Mantaray 12

Excellent boat for fishing. Mine is the 2010 so it has the rail system and newer seat. Never gets me wet in the seat area. And I love the rail system. I have made my own rod holder platforms and mounted to the to the rail system. No drilling holes in this yak yet. I have been across wakes and been side swiped by wakes while fishing and did not get wet or swamped. Paddles straight and true. Handles very well. Easy to get into and out of. I am 5ft.10 in. and weight 240lbs. This little yak is perfect for me. Easy to load into the back of my truck and unload. Do not have to roof load it due to its lenght. I love the 4 carry handles and the place to store the paddle when not in use. It has great carry capacity, although I have not tried them all out yet. There is plenty of room in the front of the yak to toss your catches and keep fishing. Plenty of storage room around yourself. All in all, I really like this kayak!!!
