“The Necky Elaho is a low profile touring playboat. Its multi chine diamond hull and rocker combine to make a very playful and maneuverable kayak. Extremely smooth edge to edge, the Elaho responds beautifully to lean turns and edging. The bow and stern hatches feature flush covers, effectively eliminating kick up from spray across the deck and providing a clean, integrated look to the boat. There’s even a convenient day hatch behind the seat. The snug fit of the cockpit, positive thigh braces and adjustable backband promote excellent boat control. The low stern deck makes lying back for rolls very comfortable. Pictured in cloudburst..Shipping: Please note that the shipping charge above applies to business address deliveries in the 48 states.
