The Ocean Kayak Venus 11 is a sit-on-top kayak that has been making waves in the kayaking community. Designed specifically for women, this kayak is comfortable, stable, and easy to carry making it perfect for dog moms.
Ocean Kayak took the feedback of their female customers and created a seat specifically tailored for women. The slightly wider seat is designed for a woman’s physique and is set lower within the desk to accommodate a woman's center of gravity. By doing so the balance point of the kayak is closer to a woman’s center of gravity making it much more comfortable and stable for women paddlers.
As the design of this kayak was focused on the needs of women, it is super lightweight (boat weight: 47 lbs) for women to carry single-handed. It also has an easy car topping handle system. This thoughtful addition ensures that you can hoist the kayak onto your roof rack single-handedly.
