Formerly known as the BKC PK11
The Brooklyn Kayak BKC 10.5 Pedal Drive Solo Single Kayak is an exciting updated representation of the BKC PK11! It has a plethora of features the experienced kayak fisherman or distance traveler will love while remaining compact, lightweight, and agile.
The core of the BKC 10.5 sit-on-top single pedal kayak is a streamlined roto-molded UV-protected HDPE hull measuring 10.5-feet long and 35 inches wide. It rides currents, slices through the chop, and glides over still water with effortless grace. The craft weighs only 75 pounds, so carrying it overland is easy thanks to built-in handles at the bow and stern and on either side of the hull.
But of course, it's the kayak pedal drive system that most excites; with bicycle-style pedals turning a high-efficiency propeller, you can tuck your paddle into the kayak's paddle keeper and go hands-free. The kayak pedals have adjustable straps to keep your feet secure, and the entire system can be removed for traditional paddling if you prefer or upgraded with a trolling motor for greater power and speed. The BKC 10.5 single pedal kayak can be controlled via its hand-operated rudder, which allows for sharp, precise turns or slow, wide arcs as conditions merit.
Among this kayak's other highlights is the craft's copious capacity for cargo. It features a large water-resistant hatch set into the bow and an additional compartment tucked behind the seat, both of which feature dry bag inserts and that can safely stow items such as a wallet, keys, and snacks.
The Brooklyn 10.5 single pedal kayak also has a large rear cargo area with bungee tie-down straps; this area is ideal for bulky items such as a tackle box, dry bag, or the matching 20L cooler. Scupper holes allow water to drain out of the kayak and can be sealed with included scupper plugs.
Fishermen will appreciate the trio of flush-mounted rod holders that can keep rods out of the way during travel or keep lines in the water during trolling, and all paddlers will be thrilled by the comfortable, ergonomic aluminum frame seat that comes with the kayak. The wide, supportive, seat can be adjusted for ideal positioning as you fish, paddle, pedal, or sit back and go with the flow. The BKC 10.5 pedal fishing kayak can accommodate a combined user and cargo weight up to 440 pounds.
