I have upload the kayak into "Sports" folder, reboot the V4s, with no result. Looks like a hardware restriction.
I've copied the fit file in the directory and rebooted (stop and start the watch) the watch. It doesn't work...
I was referring to the:
" A friend advise me to install Dozen Kayak. But this doesn't have an impact on the activity type."

If you click on the "...reply to Rudy" in my post you can…
Not sure, but I think that's just a data field and not an activity.
The only app for the kayak activity I see on the va4 is
https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/749a7702-3ec5-42be-b9e3-731b1b13f7f6
Maybe try that.

Hey Jim. I'm not sure if you're referring the file I uploaded or the smaller files Rudy identified.
With regards to "kayak.fit", my assumption about it being the sport profile file is based on this: https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/running-multisport/f/forerunner-45-series/206635/how-do-i-create-an-indoor-track-running-not-treadmill-activity-option-on-my-fr45/982827#982827
TL;DR: the RunningIndoor TrackIndoor_Track.fit file copied from a 945 to a 45 resulted in the "Indoor Track" sport showing up on that device.
However, "Indoor Track" is one of available profiles on Garmin's Forerunner 45 spec page so it likely wasn't a locked out feature. Seems like the VA4 just doesn't allow a native Kayak app.
