Compared to other kayaks, recreational kayaks are characterized by having a larger cockpit opening for easy entry and exit and a wider beam nautical beam 27&ndash 30 inches for more stability on the water and are generally less than twelve feet in length, which makes them slower than a longer boat would be, but lighter, easier to handle in and out of the water, and less expensive. Due to the wider hull, recreational kayaks will not track maintain a straight line as well as longer, narrower models. They generally have limited cargo carrying capacity. Using less expensive materials like rotomolding rotomolded polyethylene and including fewer options helps keep these boats inexpensive.

merge Baidarka date December 2011 Image Sea otter hunters 1896.jpg thumb right 200px Aleut people Aleut men in Unalaska in 1896 , with waterproof kayak gear and garments The Aleutian Baidarka or Aleutian kayak was the watercraft created by the native Aleut people Aleut or Unangan people of the Aleutian Islands . The Aleut people were surrounded by treacherous waters and required water transportation and a hunting vessel. Due to the geography and climate of the Aleutian Islands, trees and wood were in scarce supply and the people relied primarily on driftwood to create the framework of the kayak, which was covered with the skins of sea mammals. Two types of boats were created, one with a covered deck, the hunting kayak and another that was open and capable of carrying goods and people from one island to another. Before the arrival of the Russia ns, the one hole bidarkas kayaks were found in abundance, along with some two hole boats. The Russian influence, due their presence on the islands to hunt fur bearing animals, on the design of the kayaks was significant and resulted in three hole kayaks. These were probably configured with the stern man paddling and guiding the craft, while the bow man was responsible for using the throwing board in the hunt, with the hunt boss in the middle directing the hunt. Some characteristics of these early kayaks are described in the words of Veniaminov from the island of Atka in 1840 blockquote ...The baidarki of the present day Aleuts are no longer as perfect as those of the former Aleut riders. At that time, in the hands of excellent riders, they were so speedy that birds could not outrun them.
