Kneel on top?
by Brettal Brettal
I was perusing kayak manufacturers' pages, and had the thought that us C-boaters don't need the extra height in the bow for our knees(hey, it's early morning, I start slow), then clicked on an SOT and wanted to try it...as a C1. The most easily accessible conversion, EVER! Thoughts?

KOT
by Scott B.
Tom Visnius created a KOT C-1 (and a SOT squirt K-1) a while back; they're, if nothing else, interesting to look at :

Also, I still think the Perception Revolution is a C-boat - think of it as a pair of KOT C-1's, joined at the hip outrigger style...

Most plastic SOT's have too many butt-shaped features molded into them to make the outfitting work in a comfortable manner though. Not a bad concept however, particulaly for a squirt boat.
