The Makana 100 is a fishing kayak equipped with the type of propulsion system that until recently was only found in Hobie kayaks. The manufacturer VIBE has named its extremely efficient drive “X-drive”.
If you are going to fish in Greece, we will provide you with the necessary documents to register the kayak as a fishing kayak.
The main difference with the prevailing propeller mechanisms on the market is that to drive the Makana with X-drive, the legs perform movements like on a stepper, not like riding a bike. In fact, VIBE also offers a propeller drive for the Makana 100 that replaces the X-drive. The main idea of pedal propulsion is that the hands are free to fish while the kayak is in motion.
The Makana 100 is a very maneuverable and compact kayak, 305 cm long. It is extremely stable and allows you to fish standing up without having the unpleasant feeling of constantly having to keep your balance.
The weight of 35 kg is together with the drive and the seat. Since they are carried separately, the kayak itself becomes light enough to be loaded, unloaded and carried by a single person.
The kayak is equipped with a rudder and a steering system that is controlled by hand. The equipment also includes:
- An extremely comfortable raised seat that is adjustable in 3 sitting positions and can also be used as a camping chair or beach table.
- Protected by a perforated plate opening for the fishfinder transducer. Effectively protects the transducer from impact and damage
- Multiple options for mounting rod holders
- Large rear luggage compartment for a cooler
- Special places for fishing tackle boxes on both sides of the seat
- Dedicated space under the seat for hand luggage, secured with elastics
- Front luggage compartment
- Bottle or cup holder
- Paddle holder
- Comfortable carrying handles
Last but not least, the kayak is very competitively priced.
