The New Moken 12.5 is brimming with features that fishermen crave. Stable enough for standing and fast enough to handle larger lakes and coastal waters, the Moken 12.5 features Feelfree's innovative new quick release modular track system and Easy Seal hatch. An optional rudder helps with steering on windy days, and Feelfree's proven Wheel in the Keel makes rolling to put in a snap.

Questions are answered. Moken 12.5 it is!

So my girlfriend and I just purchased two of these and all we can say is very pleased! We went to the SOBX on our first trip with them and paddled some creeks. These kayaks track well, performs well on efficiency meaning they coast pretty well. I was able to stand up with no issues and even sling my cast net to catch bait and pole around in the flats. I dared my girlfriend to stand up and she took on the bet, with no issues she popped right up and poled around as well. Soooo I lost. But on the other hand, I won because we are planning our next trip. the track bar plugs in and works like a champ. The wheel in the keel works awesome as we unloaded them off my truck, and rolled them to the loading ramp with no issues on pavement into some packed gravel into the water. For handling wake, we only encountered a few boat wake approx 1 ft. and it performed well. The seats were very comfortable as we stayed on them for around 3 hours with no toosh discomfort. Storage is nice and not to forget the rod holders come with tether hooks preinstalled so I dont have to! All in all, if anyone were to ask me what to consider for a fishing sit on top, I wouldnt recommend any other kayak than the Feel Free Moken 12.5

My Dream kayak discovered.

The first thing I noticed about this kayak was hull design and the performance it offers. This thing is super stable yet still glides quite while once you get it moving. I've tried a lot of kayaks and nothing has been able to make this combination of speed and stability. The next big thing I noticed is all the common sense options it has. The wheel in the keel allows me to load it up right next to the truck and roll it across the parking lot and right down the launch fully rigged! Small things like rod leashes right in the flush mounts, stand up assist strap, and straps to hold your crate in place eliminate having to incur additional costs after the fact. The seat has an extremely high back and is quite comfortable. I did however notice that a backless pfd such as a mustang model will allow the most comfort in this seat. Overall I'm highly impressed with this kayak!
