Exo Mahe: An open kayak with no compromises, perfect for excursions and fishing
Mahe: An Open Kayak with No Compromises
The Exo Mahe isn’t just another plastic boat. It’s a well-designed vessel for those who want to get out on the water without feeling cramped in a closed cockpit, but who also need a reliable and fast boat for longer trips. The open design makes it easy to get in and out, which you’ll especially appreciate when fishing, taking photos, or paddling with your dog. The boat is forgiving and predictable, making it a great choice for both beginners and experienced paddlers looking for a relaxing ride.
Structure and Hydrodynamics: Stability and Efficient Gliding
The fuselage shape is the result of development focused on versatility:
- Long waterline: Its length of 396 cm ensures excellent glide and a higher cruising speed compared to shorter recreational kayaks.
- Wide hull (81 cm): It provides excellent initial stability. The boat does not rock even when moving around inside the cockpit, boarding from the dock, or fishing.
- Curved sides: Despite its width, the Mahe remains easy to handle and responds to tilts and turns exactly as you would expect from a high-quality boat.
Outfitting: Comfort and Space for Gear
Here, Exo shows that an open kayak can be just as comfortable as a closed one:
- Huge open cockpit: The exterior dimensions of 221 × 66 cm provide plenty of space for your legs, luggage, or a passenger.
- Adjustable seats and footrests: They allow you to adjust the boat to the paddler's body for maximum comfort, even on all-day trips, and ensure proper power transfer while paddling.
- Storage: The practical storage compartments and the space behind the seats are ideal for stowing fishing gear, a cooler, or dry bags.
Suitable Activities and Uses on the Water
Exo Mahe is a great companion for:
- Long trips on lakes and at sea: With its efficient hull and comfortable seating, it can handle even the most demanding all-day routes.
- Fishing (Kayak fishing): Superior stability and ample space for easy handling of rods and tackle.
- Recreational paddling for two: Plenty of space for two riders, or for one rider with a lot of gear for a multi-day trip.
- Rental Services and Heavy Use: Its sturdy construction can withstand even rough handling and frequent unloading on shore.
About the brand Exo Kayaks
Exo Kayaks is an Italian manufacturer with a long tradition, specializing in durable kayaks for both recreational and competitive use. The kayaks are made from high-quality rotomolded polyethylene (HDPE), which ensures a long service life, impact resistance, and reliability even under intense use. The Mahe model proves that Exo can combine a robust construction, stability, and comfort into one versatile package.
Caring for a Polyethylene Shell
The hull is made of high-quality, durable polyethylene. To maximize its service life, we recommend storing the kayak away from constant direct UV exposure (ideally under a roof or a tarp). After paddling, especially at sea, rinse the kayak thoroughly with fresh water. Regularly check that the screws on the adjustable outfitting components (seat and footrests) are tight.

Expert advice: An open kayak like the Mahe is great because of its versatility, but it requires a slightly different approach to packing than a closed touring kayak. Keep all the items you bring with you in high-quality waterproof bags or boxes that can be secured to the boat’s mounts if necessary. Thanks to its wide hull, the Mahe is very stable, but when paddling with two people, it’s important for the paddlers to sit symmetrically and keep the kayak balanced. If you’re paddling alone, sit toward the back or in the middle to keep the bow high enough above the water and the boat easy to maneuver. Don’t forget to adjust the footrests before you start paddling so that your knees are slightly bent—this will improve power transfer while paddling and significantly increase your comfort.
