Looking for a clever name for a vessel that's in between a kayak and skiff - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

i guess what i was thinking about something like a solo skiff kinda boat. Its weird calling it a skiff but it's not a kayak either. motorized kayak? so i figured to ask for some help in coming up with a in between category

Merging "Motorized" and "Kayak" = "MAK." How's MAK Boat sound? Just throwing out ideas lol

I call my Kaboat (kayak boat) a BoYak (boat kayak).

A solo skiff is just an ultra light skiff. I wish they made them 15-16ft with a little more capacity.

Using different combinations of the two words, Kayak-Skiff

Skyak

Kayiff

Skiyak

Skayaff

Skayiff

Skayakiff

Short and simple is easy, so I like Socal Beach Bums first suggestion

capacity as load capacity? For me when i had the PA14 was a beast that was borderline overkill. I loved the 12 for what i did that was sweet spot. Kaboat is not bad might go with the shorten version K-boat

How about SAK. S from skiff and AK from kayak

the Kiff

It's less than a skiff (the removed S) but still partly a kayak (the K)
