INUIT
SERIES
Why not pour everything we know about user comfort and boat performance into a recreational touring kayak? We did. It’s called Inuit. Where boat meets water, our exclusive Tru-Track II Hull accomplishes the rare feat (rare for kayaks, anyway) of tracking where you’ve aimed it — and getting there with surprising speed. Shorter hull lengths make the boats maneuverable, layered chines strengthen the boats and grab water, stabilizing the boat when it’s on edge; all good things that you normally have to sacrifice speed to get. But not this time. This is a boat series that is totally balanced. Add in 5-Star Seating that is the most comfortable ever offered in kayaking’s touring class. Plenty of storage fore and aft, and each model is ready to take on spray skirts, rudders and your own adventure-seeking impulses.
FIVE STAR SEATING Has your kayak hugged you today? If it had 5-Star Seating it could. This outfitting system system cradles you in comfort with the added bonus of a seat back that adjusts up and down to find your personal sweet spot. Add or subtract hip padding and thigh pads to fit your body type. You are fully connected to your boat in padded, tailor-fit comfort. TRU-TRACK II HULL Behold the chine, that contoured ridge that runs along the side of some boats. You’ll see multiple chines on our Tru-Track II Hull. Here’s why:
1) Chines equal rigidity + strength because eventually everybody hits the beach too hard. 2) Tracking. The chines help the hull go where it’s aimed and hold its course. 3) Stability. Chines grab water when the boat is leaned and turned, helping keep you upright. The sum of this math equals one balanced hull: stable, maneuverable and faster than it has a right to be.
INUIT 12.5 Turns on a dime-sized leaf in the water.
INUIT 13.5 Less payload than the 14.5, but more more maneuverable. Give a little, get a little.
EASY FOOT Most touring boats punish your feet; Easy Foot rests are pitched to fit the feet in their natural posture. If you’ve been in other touring boats, you’ll notice the improvement immediately.
INUIT 14.5 Speediest in the family, carries the most and a pleasant surprise to more than a few serious touring snobs. OTHER INUIT FEATURES BUNGEE PATTERN WITH SAFETY LINE, FITTED DRY HATCHS WITH BULKHEADS, BUNGEE PADDLE HOLDER, ERGONOMIC CARRY HANDLES, DAY STORAGE HATCH WITH CUP HOLDER ON 13.5 AND 14.5.
