the Essence redefines sea kayak performance!
By integrating the latest design technology it allows you to take your sea touring experiences to new levels whether you are an expert or developing your paddling skills.
The advanced hull design is solid tracking yet manoeuvrable. A strong V-shaped bow and stern gives true directional stability and the defined chines further enhance control for smooth, predictable turns. A shallower profile under the cockpit provides good initial and secondary stability. Performance adapts to suit the conditions with our multi-position retractable skeg that is easily operated with the conveniently located adjuster.
The Essence 17 has a touch more length and volume than the Essence 16. This gives more space and forgiveness for average to large paddlers and carries heavier loads without compromising on its handling abilities.
The Essence 16 is ideal if your paddling style suits a slightly livelier and more nimble ride. Snugger ergonomics allow for close control and also give a great fit for smaller paddlers.
