Sit-on-tops have similar hull shapes to sit inside kayaks, but instead of sitting inside the kayak, you sit in a molded-in depression on top, and your legs are out in the open. SOT kayaks are made from tough, inexpensive, roto-molded plastic. Sit-on-tops are easier to enter/exit and generally more comfortable. SOT kayaks are also much safer than sit inside kayaks for river trips as they will not fill with water.
