The Point 65 Apollo sit-on-top kayak bow section combines with the Apollo stern section to form a single kayak, and both sections combine with the Apollo center section to form a tandem kayak.

Perfect for apartment dwellers, small car owners and anyone who doesn't have the space for a full-length kayak, the Apollo breaks down into easy-to-store pieces
Innovative system joins pieces together, creating a stable, rigid kayak that you'll love to paddle in light surf, calm rivers and flatwater
Assembly happens in a flash: just align the sections, feed a strap into a ratchet, and ratchet down straps on either side of the cockpit
Offering a great value and high durability, the Apollo features a durable blow-molded thermoplastic hull
Cockpit in bow and stern features a comfortable molded seat with multiple footrests
Stern section features a padded backrest and padded cushion that offer comfortable support; backrest folds down during storage
Small recessed areas in bow and stern are great places to stash a dry bag and water shoes (not included); stretchy cords secure gear
The Point 65 Apollo sit-on-top kayak includes rod holders, cup holders and and carrying handles at bow and stern

Made in USA.

Comments about Point 65 Apollo Sit-On-Top Kayak - Bow Section:

This boat is compact, no frills, when taken apart it will fit in the back of my Jetta with the seats down. Assembles in seconds feels stable on the water.Storage is easy since the boat is in two pieces and is flat.

Now the cons, this boat tracks very poor and is slow. That is to be expected with an almost 9 foot boat. Some hand grips anywhere in the side would be great for moving only grips are at each end. No drains except for the seam means water pools around your feet, bottle holder, both cargo areas. Very low profile in the water makes it look like you are sinking compared to other kayaks. Very little literature came with this kayak.

Overall if you really cannot store a normal kayak then this is a good option to own your own boat. I am unable to store a one piece boat so that is why this boat makes sense for me. The boat is a compromise and that is its greatest pro as well as its greatest con.
