CUSTOM CONSTRUCTIONS AND OPTIONS Custom Fitted Options Options Continued 10 | Custom Constructions and Options Composite Seats and Cockpit Rims [1] Although most paddlers choose our fully adjustable standard seats, we can also fit composite seats in either fibreglass or carbon. Although the weight saving is minimal a composite seat feels stiffer and more solid and some people like this powerful racing position and feel. We can also craft a carbon cockpit rim if you’re looking for something special to set your boat apart from others too! Outside Seam [2] Ideal for heavy use and instructing, external seams replace our standard gel-coat strip with a glass or Kevlar seam for more abrasion resistance and an even stronger join again if you want the very best we can do a carbon seam strip too! Keel Strip [3] Beach launches and landings all take their toll on a composite boat. A durable keel strip minimises wear on your gel coat and keeps your boat in better condition for longer. We can use either fibreglass or Kevlar and we can gel coat it with any colour you like. Rudders* Rudders are a real personal choice, some swear by them some don’t! They can be a real asset when you manoeuvring in tight spots when you’re exploring tight nooks and crannies and also some prefer them with fully loaded expedition boats too. However they are generally not regarded as efficient as a skeg’s in rougher conditions. We offer two rudder options they both extend well below the hull when you are in deep water, and when you come ashore; you can get the blade out of the way so it won’t get hung up on the bottom. Easy Rudder: This low profile design that has the blade stowed vertically creates much less wind resistance via the smaller blade area it is able to use while its strong lightweight construction less than 500g (1.1lb) with few moving parts keeps the unit nice and simple. The one cord retraction system gives it its name Easy! [4] Navigator Rudder: The Navigator Rudder System forms a complete departure from standard over-the-stern types where the blade pivots 270° or 180° from its vertical deployed position to a horizontal or vertical retracted position on the deck. The Navigator goes from vertical to horizontal the shortest way, by pivoting only 90°. When you pull on the retracting line, the blade slides within a pivoting sleeve and comes head-first onto the stern, very simple and efficient. [5] Both the rudder options can be uses with our standard sliding TwistLoc or pivot (think gas pedal) footrests and can be supplied with high strength pre-stretched line (which is lighter and easier to maintain) or wire control lines. * - can also be specified on RM plastic kayaks Obviously if you looking for something different we are always happy to talk to you and see if what you’re asking for is possible! 1 3 4 5 2
Colours Due to the printing process the colours shown may not be a 100% match to the shade of pigment we use. Please use the colour chart as a guide only. Loading Chart When you’re looking at the following loading chart, don’t just calculate it on how much you weigh – add on any kit that you’re likely to be carrying as well. It might just be an emergency kit or it might be camping kit plus food plus picnic hamper plus the rest. Also, think about what you'll use it for. If you mainly paddle on day or weekend trips, a smaller boat’s more lively and playful.
