Carbon / Kevlar Sea Kayaks now in Valley Etain 17.5

There seems to be a misconception that Carbon / Kevlar sea kayaks cost a small fortune.
In general they cost 20% more than the standard Glass / diolen model. They probably only reduce the weight by a couple of Kilos, but this could make all the difference when it comes to loading it on to the roof of your car. Generally you would expect them to be stiffer and also because of the increased stiffness and less weight very slightly faster.
If you want it to last the next 20 yrs then its probably worth having the keel strip put on, but this may depend on how you treat your sea kayak and where you paddle.

We now have several demo sea kayaks in Carbon/kevlar so if you are not sure come and give them a try. NB you can have the hull gelcoat any colour you want the carbon kevlar doesnt have to be visible from the outside.

Personally I love anything that makes my sea kayak lighter so if I had the money I would definitely go for one.

Yes we do ! Sea kayak hire and Sea Kayak rental on the west coast of Scotland.

At Sea Kayak Oban there are always some new sea kayaks to try. You dont have to be in the market for a new sea kayak you might just be curious about what you have heard about.
Have you ever tried a lightweight racing sea kayak? You will be suprised how stable they are !
Have you tried Sea kayaking with Wing Paddles. Despite the scare stories most people find them very easy to use and very smooth through the water and encouraging good forward paddling style.
Failing all that its just nice to get out sea kayaking so if you happen to be in Oban and would like to be on the water come and visit. The photos below were taken this week when our choice of sea kayaks were the Wilderness systems Tempest 170 and the Necky Eliza both composite. Next week we will be trying the Valley Sea Kayaks Avocet LV and the Necky Chatham 18 . The following week we Demo the new Valley Etain in both composite and plastic and the Necky Chatham 17.
