Some mention of surfskis would be good - there are more and more of these "sit on tops" which are not recreational but which are not really elite race-and-rescue boats either. With the increased use of comfortable, breathable dry suits, a surf ski makes quite a bit of sense even for cold water paddlers.

Different models have different limits, but the limits on some of the bigger models are around 450 pounds.

What is the weight limit on the sit on top kayaks?
