PADDLE, PEDAL, CRUISE, OR SAIL USING ONE HULL.
These interchangeable systems of propulsion provide dramatic new options for fishing or just enjoying calm and open waters. Each drive lifts up and out of the way for paddling or poling. Sail can be used in combination with either drive system.
Propel Pedal Drive
This MultiSport blends all of the innovative features of the Ultimate Tandem series with the advantages of the Propel pedal drive system. The Propel unit is driven and controlled from the rear seat while the front passenger can either paddle or sit back and ride in style.

First Class Seats® offer unprecedented kayak seating comfort and flexibility!
The most comfortable, versatile kayak seat on the market!
This unique seating system supports you for hours of paddling, fishing, or simply soaking up the sun. You can remove them quickly to load your boat easily. Adjust the seat back and bottom to give you more support during a hard paddle or recline it a bit and relax while you wait for a fish to take the bait. Given the comfort and adjustability of its suspended seat design, it may also become your favorite beach or campground chair!
The seat cushions are made from HiFlow™ 3-D Mesh (patented), which is 100% recyclable and requires zero ozone-depleting cfc's (chlorofluorocarbons) in its production.
Textilene® solar screen fabric is designed to withstand seven (7) years of daily sun exposure before it begins to break down. The light-colored fabric stays much cooler than traditional black seats or compression molded seats. The strong but light anodized pewter seat frame also stays touchably cool in the sun.
It weighs only seven pounds, less than most sit inside kayak seats and it can be removed easily to lighten your kayak when loading or unloading.
The Tunnel Hull creates a new level of stability and seated comfort.
Boats featuring the Native Watercraft signature Tunnel Hull™ (patent pending) are extraordinarily stable for a single hull boat. It creates a boat-wide platform that minimizes rocking when you redistribute weight, and allows you to stand for long periods for scouting, poling or sight fishing, with confidence.
With your feet positioned in a unique, lower position relative to your hips (in most other kayaks, your feet are at the same level), you experience the most comfortable seating position available in today’s kayaks.
Bow and stern symmetry help the hull track well in the water and allow you to change direction instantly.
Adapt-a-Trak™ performance accessories slide or clip on, easily and quickly.
Adapt-a-Track™ (patented) accessory outfitting employs recessed channels around the boat that accept accessories tailored with a matching edging. This system provides a unique set of outfitting opportunities by sliding or snapping accessories onto the kayak or removing them as easily for a change in the weather, water conditions or when you're ready to load up the gear on your car.
Your Native Watercraft boat features the Easy Foot™ System.
This system provides excellent adjustability from your seated position, and employs large footpads to reduce the back and leg effort required to maintain contact and control while you paddle.
Adjustable foot braces allow you to reposition your foot pedals quickly and easily while onshore or underway.
To adjust the Easy Foot™ footbrace:
• Unweight the pads.
• Pull or push the adjustment bar until the footpad is in the desired position
• When you feel the footpad click into place on the track, let go of the adjustment bar.
Hull Construction Materials
Rotomolded Superlinear Polyethylene
Superlinear resin used in rotomolded, hybrid and MultiSport™ kayaks is chemically engineered for stiffness and both impact and abrasion resistance so you can rely on your boat's structural integrity throughout its usable life. While tough, these kayaks are not indestructible but some minor damages can be repaired. Superlinear boats will endure exposure to ultraviolet light and temperature variation so you can store them outdoors with confidence. For tricks about cleaning and storing your rotomolded kayak be sure to consult your Owner's Manual.
MultiSport Propel Pedal Drive System
The Propel Pedal Drive System is a revolutionary propulsion system with remarkable features but is also astonishingly easy to use. Enjoy total boat control with forward and reverse capabilities, plus the 1:10 drive ratio converts each pedal crank into ten revolutions of the prop. Yes, you can go fast. More important, you will go far with less fatigue as the sleek hydrodynamic design allows efficient propulsion with minimal drag. Your body position mimics a recumbent bike, and with easy adjustments you can set back and thigh support for a custom fit and even more comfort.
The internal drive unit is completely sealed against sand, grit, and mud so it is virtually maintenance free. The drive unit’s housing is marine grade anodized aluminum so it is light, tough and rust proof. Plus, because the other components are stainless steel, the system is protected from salt water damage.
The system uses a simple pivot system to be lowered or lifted out of the water easily. It secures easily with a pin once in place and a tough nylon flow plate prevents backwash from entering the boat.
