With a capacity of 500 pounds, this kayak is buoyant enough to bring back that 200-pound marlin that didn't get away!Our Cayman 11.5 Sit-On-Top Angler Kayak adds new meaning to the word stable. A kayak so stable we've even added an assist strap to help you stand up while you're under way. Stand up That's right, not only can you paddle around with all the fishing gear you would ever need, you can even stand up to look for structure, make that needed flip cast that's impossible sitting down, hold your trophy catch up for all to see, pole your way through really shallow water or just stretch your legs. Try standing up with most kayaks and if you aren't adept at balancing on a ball with one leg you're more than likely going to be checking out how deep the water is.If you're new to fishing from a kayak, why choose a sit-on-top over a sit-inside kayak Options! It's easier to add accessories. And if you're like most kayak fishermen, outfitting your boat is half the fun! You'll have a better view of the water (and potential obstacles) around you and it's also easier to get out and back in if you feel the need to wade. Some fishermen even like the ability to hang a leg over the side when dealing with a large fish. Since you'll be more open to the elements, expect to get wet. If the water's warm, wear clothing that dries quickly and protects you from the sun's damaging rays. If the water or air is cold, you'll want to wear gear that also provides extra warmth. Neoprene shoes or boots (sold separately) feel really good instead of cold, wet feet after a day out in the elements.Hull DesignMade from roto-molded polyethylene, the hull of the Cayman 11.5 is flexible and impact resistant so it will endure years of rough handling. The shape of the hull has been designed for superior stability while still maintaining maneuverability in everything from flat water to small surf.ComfortThe Cayman 11.5 features a wide cockpit making it easy to enter and exit. A molded-in foot brace system allows you to adjust your leg positions for optimal paddling and then shift positions or stretch out during the day as needed. Scupper holes are found in several places so water that finds its way over the deck will automatically drain out so you won't sit in a puddle of water all day.SeatingThe unique, roto-molded
