Bow
A kayak has basic features. The front of the kayak is the bow and the rear is
the stern. When sitting in the kayak, facing the bow, the left side of the kayak
is port and the right side of the kayak is starboard. The hull ID number (KPO
sticker) can be found on the starboard side of the kayak at the stern.
The X-Factor gator hatch is one of our patented designs, that allows full access
to the hull while providing additional bungee storage and a child seat. In the
middle of the boat, there is a cockpit area with foot wells (toward the bow) and
a seating area (towards the stern). The multipurpose hatch is located between
the gator hatch and the center rectangular hatch. The center rectangular hatch
allows access to the inside of the kayak for gear storage. Inside the cockpit,
there are holes that go all of the way through the kayak called scuppers. These
scuppers allow the kayak to drain. The second rectangluar hatch is located
behind the seating area. This hatch also allow access to the inside of the kayak
for extra storage. Like many of our models, the X-Factor is equipped with a
backwell bungee storage which is an ideal placement for a 5 gallon live bait
bucket or a 13”x13” milk crate. It can also be used as storage for any gear
you wish to bring on board and hold securely with our sturdy bungee cord.
Threaded eyelets are installed along the rails of the kayak to attach numerous
accessories e.g. seat, tackle box, dry bag, etc. Your kayak also has a designed
drain system to drain out any water that’s inside of the kayak hull after your
kayaking trip.
