Kids kayaks- the list

-- Last Updated: Jul-20-08 3:15 PM EST --

RiverOil's list of kayaks for big guys prompted me to post a list of kayaks made for the other side of the spectrum- kids. I see many threads regarding this on pnet.

Prijon Flipper
Prijon Viper
Perception Carolina XS
Perception Acadia Scout
Wilderness systems Tsunami sp
Current Designs Raven
Ocean Kayak Kea
EPI Episea
Jackson Mini tripper
Innova juinor
Feathercraft Koho
Wilderness Systems Piccolo
Old Town Otter (Not intended as kids kayak)
Old Town Loon 86
Yost Sea Pup and Sea Flea
Pygmy Osprey 13
Shearwater Rising Star
CLC Chesapeake 14

I think Im forgeting some. Please help me refresh my memory by suggesting more for the list!!

kid’s list
I’d add the old WS Piccolo, a terrific boat for paddlers up to about 110 lbs.

Kids kayaks
Hi,

Your idea for this list is great! I would like to add one. Both my girls, 11 & 8 yrs old, have the Old Town Otter Sport. They love them and I can even use them if I had to.



Cheers

WS Tchaika
Also discontinued, was like a composite Piccolo.

Feathercraft Koho
No longer made

another
Pamlico 140

Pygmy
makes a small version of the Osprey, and the Arctic Tern 14 is not a bad boat for a kid.

Old Town Loon 86
Mini-Loon.



Don’t know if it’s produced anymore.



See you on the water,
