Solo kayak PERCEPTION ESSENCE 17 w/rudder
The Perception Essence 17 Touring and Sea Kayak is slightly longer and wider than the Essence 16 making it ideal for the average to larger paddler with a bit more space and volume. This also covers people wanting to carry heavier loads without compromising the handling abilities.
The essence is predictable in its handling and maneuverability and has excellent forward speed ideal for an expedition. It’s initial and secondary stability gives the paddler added confidence in more trying waters and suits you weather you’re an experienced sea kayaker or if you’re a paddler improving your skills.
Equipped with the Zone EXP outfitting, the Essence gives you the performance required from your outfitting in comfort over those long expedition days. Padded thigh braces, low ergonomic backrest and leg lifters help you get the perfect comfortable in control fit.
The Essence has 3 handy hatches, large ones front and rear and a small front day hatch for the smaller bits. There is a compass recess on the front if you’re plans are for further off shore expeditions and wish to mount one there.
