Makana 100

Love it so far. I’m a bigger guy and 61 and have to admit it’s not always easy with transporting and getting in and out. Not the kayak’s problem it on me.

Makana 100

So i have been out a few times with the Makana 100. Absolutely love the kayak. The only issue that I have found is that I think the rudder itself could be a little better. Other than that i look forward to many years of fishing on it.
