Abstract
A watercraft suitable for fishing has a rotomolded deck and hull. The deck includes a cockpit with substantially vertical sidewalls, a rear wall, a pedaling installation, and a flat floor between the sidewalls extending from the rear wall to the pedaling installation in the cockpit. The hull includes a depression between lateral protrusions amidships and a stern with a rounded cross section so that the combination of the lateral protrusions and rounded stern cross section allow the watercraft to track straight on water and for the stern to move laterally when the watercraft is turned on a body of water. The watercraft may also include a seat movably mounted onto spaced apart grooves installed on the flat floor of the cockpit that extend from a rear position near the rear wall to a forward position near the pedaling installation.
