2019 BOTE Lono Aero Classic

The Hawaiian god of tenacity and vigor. BOTE's aptly named entry into the kayak category shouldn't come as a surprise. Utilizing its industry shaping design and engineering, this first-of-its-kind kayak is constructed with BOTE's inflatable AeroBOTE Technology and goes from travel bag to a 12'6? fishing kayak in a matter of minutes. The Lono shares many of our feature options which allow it to be accessorized and configured to make it your own. Lightweight, easy to store, easy to transport and a blast to paddle!

Designed to be a kayak fishing and paddling game-changer with features such as the four-chamber drop stitch inflatable construction, Lono boasts rigidity and stability that will forever change the ease of reeling in those monster fish and was designed to smoothly navigate in almost any body of water.

One of the most unique attributes of the Lono Aero is the ability to accessorize it to fit your style and needs. We have utilized existing BOTE accessories, newly engineered accessories and other industry-leading additions to make the Lono Aero the most modular kayak on the planet.

Features may include:

The wide flared bow deflects chop while keeping the deck dry. Plus creates a roomy cockpit.

Utilizing gravity and momentum the kayak can rid of unwanted water by draining through the stern.

The KULA port is a circular cutout located behind the adjustable seat to fit a KULA or bait bucket.

The BVA multi-textured deck pad is heat sealed to shed water and provides plenty of cushion to reduce fatigue and anti-slip traction.

Tie down points on the deck pad are perfect for lashing down a cooler (or other gear).

The Sandspear Sheath allows you to utilize BOTE’s Sandspear to anchor your kayak in place.

Our kayak comes with accessory integration systems that allow the paddler to “deck out” their kayak with our custom Racs.

Located in the cockpit of the kayak, the Paddle Sheath™ allows the paddler to insert the blade end of the paddle into the slot, freeing up the hands for other activities.

Redesigned to be the most comfortable Grab Handle. No more numb fingers or weak leverage while transporting your board.

Stash Nets are a great place to store important small items like a smartphone, wallet, keys, or extra gear.

Adjustable Bungee Straps provide quick and easy storage of extra gear.

Mounting points for a Power-Pole® Micro wireless shallow water anchor.
