Necky Kayaks
Many New 2008 models now in Stock.
All Necky polymer kayaks are made from the highest grade plastic currently available (superlinear polyethylene) Over the years this formula has been continuously upgraded to keep up with technology and to ensure the highest quality, durability and value. Other brands may seek lesser grade materials for either higher profits or lower cost but Neckys are built to last!
Check out the new comfort seat system, it's generally regarded as the most comfortable kayak seat available.
Necky kayaks have initial stability but also have lots of secondary stability due to their unique flared hull design and dolphin bow. This makes for a kayak that is user friendly and forgiving even in choppy waters but also has plenty of performance to get you there with the minimum amount of effort. Visit our store and see why Neckys are a top seller year after year.

Recreational Kayaks

NECKY SKY

SPECS
Length: 9' 6"
Width: 26"
Weight: 39 lbs

Necky's smallest and lightest recreational kayak, the SKY offers all the build quality, comfort and ease of use associated with Necky’s recreational line. With good tracking and high stability, this small kayak has excellent maneuverability and great handling characteristics. Small and light enough to make carrying and transporting the boat very easy, the SKY is equally at home on the ocean, lakes or lazy rivers. Its portable size makes it ideal for the deck of a sailboat, the roof of an RV or in the bed of a pickup truck. The advanced design of the SKY makes it popular for kayak classes since it is user friendly yet instructors can illustrate beginner as well as more advanced techniques. Other brands may have a model that seems similar to the SKY on paper but they'll actually have a flat bottom making them much more limited as far as usage. Notice the SKY's unique multi-chined hull --this provides exceptional secondary stability in calm or choppy waters. The flared bow on the SKY will ride right over any boat wake or waves you encounter. We have yet to find another recreation kayak that is as SAFE or as FUN to paddle as the SKY.

NECKY MANITOU SPORT

SPECS
Length: 10' 11"
Width: 26.5"
Weight: 44 lbs
The Manitou Sport is a shorter and slightly wider version of our standard Manitou. Just like its older sibling, the 'Sport' is truly a scaled down sea kayak and not just an oversized pool toy. The fine entry of the bow and clean exit of the stern provide exceptional glide. The efficiency of the hull, combined with its rock solid stability and surprising tracking, make the Manitou Sport far out perform all of its competitors. A rear bulkhead and hatch (neoprene with hard cover) are standard making the Sport safe enough to truly bridge the gap between stability and performance.

NECKY MANITOU 13

SPECS
Length: 12' 10.5"
Width: 24.75"
Weight: 45 lbs
The ultimate in versatility, the Manitou is a recreational kayak with a hint of British charm. At 12' 10.5" this boat gives the feel and glide of a touring boat with the stability and comfort of a recreational kayak. From its fine bow entry to the nicely finished stern, this kayak is a straight tracking boat with plenty of initial stability and a comfortable seating position. The cockpit size allows for good ease of entry and exit without being so huge that the paddler is lost in the boat. The standard water resistant stern hatch and bulkhead provide enough storage for a day on the water along with buoyancy for safety. The Manitou’s compact size and low weight make carrying or car-topping an easy task.

NECKY MANITOU 13 SELECT

SPECS
Length: 12' 10.5"
Width: 24.75"
Weight: 45 lbs
The Manitou Select series are Necky's advanced kayaks for beginners.

The Manitou Select series has several added features over the popular base Manitous including thigh braces, reflective deck rigging, premium Linear Select material and more! Upgraded outfitting combined with efficient, high-performance hulls make the Manitou Selects the perfect choice for almost anyone.

NECKY MANITOU 13 RECYCLED

SPECS
Length: 12' 10.5"
Width: 24.75"
Weight: 45 lbs
Made with 100% post industrial plastic the new recycled Manitou 13 not only performs well on the water, it is environmentally friendly. Necky Kayaks uses their own cut outs and plastic waste to produce these unique kayaks. But don't let the word 'waste' fool you. The 100% recycled material actually contains stronger property materials than the standard Manitou line. Outfitted with Comfort Fit™ thigh braces and reflective deck rigging, the recycled Manitous help pave the way toward a better environment tomorrow and cleaner waterways today.

NECKY SKY II


Necky has discontinued the "Sky II", so we are offering a private label version of it called the "Vie II" that Old Town makes for us using the original mold.
For more details see our "Old Town Kayaks" web page.

NECKY MANITOU II

SPECS
Length: 14' 8"
Width: 28"
Weight: 74 lbs
Paddling families spoke, and we listened: introducing the Manitou II, and incredibly versatile tandem designed for beginning and intermediate level paddlers, with the feel and glide of a touring boat, and the stability and comfort of a recreational kayak. While its double cockpit layout allows ample room for a family of three, it's also a blast for solo paddlers. The stern seat easily slides forward for solo paddling. The bow seat may also be adjusted for perfect trim. The Manitou II has a rear hatch compartment with a sealed bulkhead PLUS extra bouyancy in the bow. This is a feature not found on any other recreation tandem kayak. Bouyancy in both bow and stern provides a level of safety unique to this model. This extra bouyancy combined with Necky's dolphin bow and flaired hull makes the Manitou II the smart choice among tandems when you'll be paddling on water that can have waves at times.

This seventeen footer features a fine bow entry and a sleek stern to offer exceptional glide and efficiency. The rocker is less pronounced than the Chatham 16, resulting in stronger tracking and greater hull speed.

The adjustable outfitting is relaxed and roomy, offering great comfort while still providing positive fit for agressive edging and rolls. Three VCP hatches (two oval and one round day hatch) are standard on the low profile deck.

Composite Touring Kayaks


The flowing lines of the Chatham series are inspired by classic Greenland designs. The 16 is built to minimize windage, have great maneuverability and superb rough water performance. The hull has a very full chine, which provides great stability for a boat of this beam and quick response to edging and lean turns. Volume in the bow is carried well forward ensuring good resurfacing characteristics when riding wind waves or punching surf. A drop skeg, three bulkheads and waterproof VCP hatches complete the package. This boat truly excels at coastal exploration through surf zones, rock gardens and convoluted rip tides. Composite construction is considerably lighter and much stiffer than the poly model. Layup Options: Advanced Composite(AC) Fiberglass or Advanced Composite (AC) Carbon

The Looksha IV has proven itself as one of our most popular designs. Its distinct multi chine hull and rocker combine to offer great responsiveness and maneuverability in a kayak with enough volume for extended touring and expedition work. Very smooth edge to edge, the Looksha IV has great secondary stability and is extremely solid on a lean. Fit is excellent for mid-sized boaters and provides a strong interface between paddler and kayak, yielding easy rolling characteristics and encouraging active paddling. This kayak is very well mannered in rough conditions and is at home in big swell or surf. Two hatches, perimeter lines and rudder are standard. Layup Options: Advanced Composite(AC) Fiberglass or Advanced Composite (AC) Carbon

If you feel uncomfortably cramped in many of today’s tiny little performance boats and are tired of watching the smaller paddlers have all the fun, then the Elaho HV is the answer. Built on a realistic scale for big paddlers, the HV retains all the sportiness, responsiveness and fun of its smaller siblings. There is no compromise in performance, just enough volume to comfortably fit bigger paddlers looking for good lean turns and solid edging. The HV is built for play and general sport touring. A clean, integrated look to the boat is enhanced by flush covers on the bow and stern hatches, which effectively eliminate kick–up from spray across the deck. There’s even a convenient day hatch behind the seat. Composite construction gives “no compromise” stiffness and light weight. Layup Options: Advanced Composite(AC) Fiberglass

The flowing lines of the Chatham series are inspired by classic Greenland designs. The 17 is built to minimize windage, have great maneuverability and superb rough water performance. The hull has a very full chine, which provides great stability for a boat of this beam and quick response to edging and lean turns. Volume in the bow is carried well forward ensuring good resurfacing characteristics when riding wind waves or punching surf. A drop skeg, three bulkheads and waterproof VCP hatches complete the package. This boat truly excels at coastal exploration through surf zones, rock gardens and convoluted "tide rips". Composite construction is considerably lighter and much stiffer than the poly model. Layup Options: Advanced Composite (AC) Fiberglass or Advanced Composite (AC) Carbon

At close to 18’ in length and with a very narrow beam, the Chatham 18 is an extremely capable “passage-maker” with a good turn of speed, great sea worthiness and surprising stability for such a slender craft. While still very nimble, the 18 is somewhat stiffer tracking and a little less maneuverable than her shorter sister, the 16. Minimal windage and a drop skeg result in good directional stability even in high winds and big seas. Three bulkheads and VCP rubber hatches provide decent cargo space for expedition work. The snug cockpit and adjustable outfitting afford a superb interface between paddler and boat. Layup Options: Advanced Composite (AC) Fiberglass or Advanced Composite (AC) Carbon

The Nootka Plus is a sweet blend of a performance hull and good cargo capacity for touring. We stretched the cockpits apart on our original Nootka to fit in a center hatch and added most of the volume above the water line to keep the hull fast. Four bulkheads keep all three hatches dry. The result is a very fast tandem with enough room in the hatches for extended trips for careful packers. The decks are low to minimize windage. Whether racing or touring, a fast, efficient hull allows paddlers to travel more quickly with less strain and the Nootka Plus covers miles with ease. Layup Options: Fiberglass.


Whitewater Kayaks


NECKY MISSION

SPECS
Length: 7' 2"
Width: 25.5"
Weight: 36 lbs
Conceived as a super fun, river-running playboat, the Mission has enough volume for all-day comfort and predictable handling in grabby hydraulics and squirrelly eddies. Pronounced bow and stern rocker yields easy surfing performance and loose, forgiving spins and play. A tucked rail keeps edges out of trouble in trashy holes, while still generating good carving ability on a wave. Whether the Mission is to nail your first clean flat spin, perfect the stern squirt or surf until sunset, the innovative recoil outfitting, good foot room and predictable performance will keep you grinning from ear to ear. "Mission accomplished."

NECKY CRUX

SPECS
Length: 7' 7"
Width: 25"
Weight: 43 lbs
The Crux represents our next evolutionary step in creeking. One critical area of concern was the resurfacing characteristics, so a great deal of attention went into sculpting the peaked deck and blending volume out to the ends. Long months of tweaking and careful evaluation resulted in a kayak that handles big hydraulics with poise and resurfaces after big drops like a champ. The Crux has surprising speed for its length and punches holes with authority. Shorter, quicker, and more controlled, the Crux still has enough volume for multi-day trips for the hardcore boater.
