New for 2012! The Vector 14 with Rudder is the newest boat in the Necky Sit-on-Top line. Designed differently than most sit-on-tops, the Vector 14 is designed to have excellent secondary stability while its primary stability allows the paddler to lean turn and sit the boat up on edge. This new boat is sure to take your sit-on-top kayaking to a whole new level!

Features

• Necky touring seat with backband

  Necky Touring Seat is made of durable molded foam, this seat is designed specifically to reduce pressure on your sciatic nerve. By actually improving flow around the gluteus maximus, it helps prevent your feet and legs from falling asleep when you're paddling longer distances. For added comfort, the seat does not retain water. It also features an integral tether that attaches to the seat of the boat, keeping it in place when car-topping. The supportive back band provides ample lumbar support, movement and comfort for most body types. Many of our touring kayaks feature this seat.

• Quick Seal bow and stern hatches with Cross LockÖ buckle system
• Quick Seal Hatch with Cross LockÖ Buckle System

  The Quick Seal hatch features a unique gasket that seals perfectly to provide dry storage. The easy to open Cross Lock Buckle System makes getting into the hatch a breeze. The "X" pattern is achieved with four straps and one quick release buckle. The low anchor points of the straps allow for excellent pressure that is evenly distributed around the hatch cover. Simple, secure and easy to use.

  Scupper Valve Patent pending valve designed to help keep water from entering your kayak via the scupper holes AND to drain any water that may come over the side while you are paddling.

• Low profile carry handles Rudder system with foot pedals

  The aluminum alloy used in the standard rudder can take lots of abuse, bending, and rebending before it breaks. With some care this aluminum rudder should last a lifetime. When deployed you use the foot pedals to guide the kayak to the right or the left. A rudder is used for keeping your boat on track, especially when the weather conditions change. It can help make your journey safer and more enjoyable.
