17' Necky Looksha IV touring sit-in sea kayak. Orange color poly and is equipped with rudder. Two watertight storage hatches. The boat is in good condition with normal wear, including scratches from encounters with oyster bars and coral, but all cosmetic. Necky made this boat with multi-chines and it carves turns very easily with a little guiding lean. It has good initial stability that is smooth as you lean further into its solid secondary stability. If you want the simplest of handling just drop the rudder into the water. It is a nice and forgiving boat that does well in a variety of conditions. For campers it has plenty of room with large easy to load hatches for camping. This boat is perfect for beginners or intermediate paddlers. Will sell with paddle and cockpit cover.

Great looking boat Chris. I think you have a neighbor across the water that needs a touring boat.

I'm reading the ad right now, and drooling, but with two dogs at home, I don't think I will be doing that sea kayak trip along the entire Gulf Coast from FL to TX. Oh, well. However, I'll trade you another short sit on top kayak for that one. Test rides are available. Love the pink paddle. lol. MerMan has one just like it.

Hey, if you want, you can park it at my house until you sell it. I'll keep the engine turned over for you. We should meet for drinks, just past the point on our boats one day when the sun warms things a bit. I know a couple more SoWallers who we might get to paddle out, too.

Let's do it. I've got another yak, too.
