Is this a kayak or a stand-up paddleboard The short answer: Yes.If your objective is to have a fun, stable platform for paddling, does it really matter what you call it That's what WE thought. The Perception Hi Life is equipped to fill both rolls with equal poise. It's perfect for when you can't decide whether to get a kayak or an SUP, or for those who like to change their minds about what they want to do on the way to the ocean, lake or river.If finding storage space for both a kayak and an SUP is difficult, this hybrid cuts that problem in half. Although at 11 feet long and 34 inches wide, you'll still need somewhere to stash it when you aren't on the water (which should be twice as long given its versatility). The Hi Life has the stability and smooth tracking needed to inspire confident paddling in a variety of conditions so beginning and intermediate paddlers will enjoy getting out on the water.Kayak FeaturesSmooth tracking for cruisingExcellent stability in wind and currentSuper low profile goes where ordinary kayaks can'tPadded, adjustable, high-back seat folds down when not in useSit-on-top design for a short learning curve for beginnersCenter rail doubles as a slide track for mounting accessories and as a carry handleStand-Up Paddleboard FeaturesExcellent stability for confident paddlingTraction pads at the bow, midship and stern for secure footingSingle fin aids in smooth tracking and turningConvenience FeaturesBuilt-in cooler/storage area under the seatCenter cup holder in front of seatRear tankwell for storageSwim decks for easy exit and re-entry for kids and petsCarry handles at bow and stern for easy portagingSpecificationsMaterial: Roto-molded polyethyleneWidth: 34"Length: 11'Capacity: 280 pounds
