Description
This kayak/canoe hybrid has a transparent polymer hull that offers paddlers
an underwater vista of aquatic wildlife and waterscapes unavailable
in conventional boats. Seating two people, the sturdy canoe hull is
made of the same durable material found in the cockpit canopies of supersonic
fighter jets. Easy to maneuver, the wide canoe displaces a greater amount
of water for more surface stability, and the paddlers sit lower to the
deck, resulting in better balance. Adjustable seats allow paddlers of
different heights to personalize their leg room. With a lightweight
anodized aluminum frame, it can be easily stored or transported to and
from the water. Includes two double-headed paddles, a water bailer,
and two flotation devices. This model is recommend for areas that experience
calm ocean conditions. New retractable skeg system included in the standard
version improves tracking, a feature especially convenient for long
distance paddling. If purchased additionally, the new optional outrigger
system improves stability when in choppier waters and renders flipping
practically impossible. Unparalleled material durability, weather ability
and impact resistance are among the Molokini's advantages. Impact resistancy
tests have included intense crashing against rocky shorelines, 20 ft
drops, hammer blows and an ejection from a vehicle at 70mph.
Tests performed on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, have proven that the
visibility on a sunny day and during non-turbulent water conditions
can yield views to depths of 75 ft plus for the exploration of new worlds
waiting to be discovered.
Tests have included encounters with pods of dolphins, coral farms and
nocturnal underwater sea life. Weight capacity 425 pounds. Made in the
U.S.A. 33 1⁄2" W x 133" L x 11" D. (40 lbs.)
