When taking our little paddler out on the water we seat 'em in the center of the Ocean Kayak Malibu Two XL Tandem Kayak where they can paddle when they want and enjoy the view when they don't. We stash our soft cooler in the stern bungee system for a mid-lake picnic and our sunscreen and hats in the bow bungee system for post-swim application. The bow and stern seats adjust to our preferred lean and can be removed and shifted for solo paddling missions.
