North Shore pushes the boundaries of sea kayak design yet again. The Ocean gives you wings. This unique feature creates a fast and stable hull, with excellent edging. A low profile deck sheds water well and offers very low windage, keeping you in control even in the worst sea and weather conditions. This gives you an unrivalled confidence to go and enjoy the Oceans of the world.
Superb to paddle empty on day trips but has the carrying capacity you require for those extended trips we all dream of.
Wings, crisp edges that stop just behind the seat and slowly blend into the bow.
Neutrally balanced, (the widest part of the kayak is by your hips)
Extra recessed skeg blade to reduce the risk of jamming
Contoured bulkheads reduce stress points on the hull.
Comfortable padded seat with good support backrest and hip pads.
Hand grips at the back of the cockpit rim
Easy access deck pod
Security attachment point on rear deck.
