A compact touring kayak in a low volume version for smaller, lighter paddlers. The Islay slides easily onto cars and into garages, yet holds everything you need for a weekend escape. If you’re new to paddling, you’ll appreciate this boat’s stability. If you’re more experienced, you’ll love how the excellent edging lets you carve gracefully across the water. This super-affordable inland/coastal cruiser now rocks a new contoured seat with a floating backrest for even more luxury.
