H20 |
|
Highlights: |
|
H2O is a very user friendly kayak, which is constructed to be very effi cient. It has a Swedish form, which means it is wider behind the cockpit and has a long waterline.
This lets the kayak achieve a very high pace in relation to width and steadiness. Maximum speed to be measured even more then 9 knots. That makes it one of the fastest kayaks on the market in relation to steadiness. H2O also glides nicely through waves as it has a large bow. It has a long hull, which gives it less friction with water and is, therefore, easy to handle at a pace around 6 knots. The large cockpit of H2O gives it fl exibility when it comes to applying diff erent paddling techniques and also makes it easy to get in and out of the kayak. It is just as good for long weal trips as for short trips and training sessions.

Sport 600 |
|
Highlights: |
|
Sport 600 is a very fast and efficient multisport kayak. Designed with a swedeform hull (largest volume behind the cockpit) and a long waterline it will deliver sparkling performance, combined with excellent control.
Sport 600 is based on the successful H20 design, but longer and narrower and with a slightly higher Cp (volume confi guration) - thereby achieving high top speed without sacrifi cing low speed performance. It is one of the fastest kayaks on the market in this class, and just possibly the fastest with a stability that even a not very experienced paddler can handle.

Sea Pearl - Greenland |
|
Highlights: |
|
|
|
It has a little more room for knees and feet than some of Seabird's other designs(Black Pearls) |
|
It gives you a second to react after a erratic paddle stroke, before turning you upside down. It reacts quickly to maneuvering strokes, leaning and weight shifts |
|
You do not have to be a master of Greenland paddling and rolling to enjoy the Sea Pearl, but you will probably become one - intentionally or not. |

Black Pearl - Greenland |
|
Highlights: |
|
|
|
Black Pearl is one of the most popular positively reviewed kayak plans amongst homebuilders. We have suspended the marketing common sense in favor of breathtaking performance. A kayak for those resourceful paddlers who know exactly how to deal with difficult situations, do it right and with split second timing – a kayak for pure unaffected paddling joy and with no practical usefulness whatsoever
|
|
Black Pearl is a kayak without significant characteristics: it is not stable nor unstable, not fast nor slow, not strong tracking nor tightly turning. Those qualities are within the paddler. The kayak is highly responsive and does whatever is required and does it instantly. Go where you want to go, do what you want to do – your kayak will be there for you
|
|
Black Pearl is a tight kayak of east Greenland ancestry, with a low deck and a seating position that takes a bit getting used to. But once there it gives a superb kayak control and comfort – and of course rolling and maneuvering qualities second to none. |
