The largest of the Cruiser series, the 16.8 prioritises speed and efficiency for unparalleled performance. With a waterline width of 28” and a centre depth of 12”, the Cruiser 16.8 offers enough interior volume for longer trips with significant gear, but handles exceptionally well when unloaded as well. Interweaving C1 racing features like tucked-in gunwales at the paddling station and the sharp entry and exit lines of a K1 kayak, the Cruiser 16.8 is a true hybrid. Even with its desire for speed, the medium width offers excellent stability and provides comfort in larger water. Whether you’re an expedition tripper or a recreational enthusiast looking to maximise your potential, the Cruiser 16.8 is made for the adventurer.
