Well, it's a sit-on-top
Posted by: guideboatguy on Jan-27-13 11:17 PM (EST)

There are a lot of SOTs that look similar to this, and they seem to be popular for fishing. This one is not a rowboat. It's not a canoe. Unless we develop a new word for this kind of boat, what else to we call it except a sit-on-top kayak? No, I don't think "plastic floating barge platform" is a name that will go down in history as the one that sticks.

By the way, I'm not very good with numbers, but I counted two seats, not three.
