ABSTRACT:
A kayak characterized by a kayak hull molded of semi-rigid material stiffened by an internal frame structure which includes a bow and a stern beam units and a seat each of hollow and watertight construction to provide buoyancy and each of limited dimensions to be inserted through the opening in the top of the kayak. The beam units are engaged between the top and bottom walls of the hull, extend longitudinally and centrally of the latter forwardly and rearwardly of the passenger opening and have beam extensions projecting towards each other along the portion of the hull bottom wall opposite the passenger opening. The seat rests on both extensions, is preferably adjustable fore and aft along the latter and also engages the top of the kayak on both sides of the passenger opening to coact with the bow and stern parts in stiffening the semi-rigid hull.
