Abstract
A kayak is disclosed having improved control and bracing for acommodating a kayaker wherein a cockpit rim encircles the cockpit seat and adjustable thigh braces are provided in the seat. The adjustable thigh braces include a right thigh brace carried in said cockpit for receiving the right thigh of the kayaker and having contoured outer and inner thigh braces for bracing respective outer and inner thigh portions of the kayaker's right thigh when in the seated position. A left thigh brace is carried in the cockpit for receiving the left thigh of the kayaker having contoured outer and inner thigh braces for bracing respective outer and inner thigh portions of the kayaker's left thigh when in the seated position. Adjustable mounting assemblies interconnect the right and left thigh braces and the kayak which are constructed and arranged so that the right and left thigh braces may be adjusted longitudinally and rotationally with respect to the kayaker's thighs to accommodate the kayaker's thigh length and girth so that increased control over the kayak is had through the body movements of the kayaker.
