The Cove 14.5 is a two-person kayak with a long hull that tracks straight and feels secure for paddlers of mixed experience. Zone DLX seats provide adjustable comfort, and a sealed stern hatch with a bulkhead and flotation foam gives you dry storage plus added safety. It works well when an experienced paddler sits in back and steers.

Good to know
- At 73 lbs and over 14 ft long, this is a two-person carry, so plan on a cart or a partner for loading.
- Put the stronger or more experienced paddler in the stern, since the rear seat does most of the steering in a tandem.
KayakDIY take: A tandem lets two people share one boat, which is often easier than buying, storing and hauling two. For more options, browse all my kayak reviews.
