Or a catamaran? ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/10/full-30144-155954-cdbd6f4d_3460_4334_97a1_b65a8af87743.jpeg)

Kind of a hybrid deal eh? Looks like a blue sky 360 angler. I think Jackson kayak builds them, not sure.
Keep looking forward. That’s why windshields are larger than rear view mirrors.

It looks like my Blue Sky 360. I never know what to call mine, but they say they allowed in most kayak tournaments. Don’t know for sure.

That’s not a kayak. That’s a pedal barge.

Of course it's allowed in kayak tournaments... It's 2 kayaks with a seat in the middle!

Not a kayak, it fits most (if not all) of the characteristics of a catamaran. Saying this, I still like them and somewhat considered buying one when the Blue Sky came out. The storage is what stopped me from seriously considering it because it won't fit through my backyard gate.
Honestly, lugging that thing around is probably no worse than lugging a PA14 around... and I am the first to admit that a PA14 is a stretch of the word "Kayak". LOL

How’s that “easy and efficient” paddling ? He tried to get me to try it out several times.. I was afraid he would take my picture while I was in it so I always turned him down.  That has to be the stupidest looking kayak in the world, I don't care how well it might paddle. The seating area always reminded me of a radiator.

I say no to both, guess we need to tighten up the definition for a kayak.

Agree. Fish from the vessel you enjoy; but many kayak tournament organizations are on a propulsion and hull design slippery slope.
