For Sale: Epic 18X Sport Performance sea kayak

[Bill Davis]

Epic 18X Sport Performance sea kayak purchased May 2008, 3 ½ years old.

Dimensions - 18ft long by 22in wide.
Weight 17.5kg approx.
Construction - hybrid composite of glass fibre, carbon fibre and kevlar.

The Epic 18X Sport is designed for touring paddlers seeking a distinct edge in a high-performance kayak. Paddlers find the increased stability and sleek, efficient shape of the 18X allow them to cover long distances with exceptional ease and speed, and that it performs great in rough water conditions. In addition to all the features that intermediate to advanced come standard on an Epic, the 18X Sport includes the advanced Epic Track Master™ steering system, an adjustable seat, large storage capacity, and front deck cutaways for a closer, more efficient stroke. While the 18X and 18X Sport beam widths are equivalent, the waterline width of the 18X Sport is approximately ¾" wider than the 18X.
For those not familiar with Epic they are a leading US brand of kayak. They have a big heritage in racing kayaks and surf skis, which influences the design of their sea kayaks - they are very light and very fast.
There are a number of features, not found on most sea kayaks, which make this boat fast: it is very light - comparable with the weight of full carbon sea kayaks from other manufacturers This also makes it very easy to carry and 'car-top'.- it has a long waterline and near vertical bow and stern.
- the 'gas pedal' rudder controls enable a good leg drive to be used for fast efficient paddling. .
This boat is excellent for someone who wants a fast sea kayak which can carry a large load. It is designed to track very straight and eat up the miles with the minimum of effort. This was the boat used by Freya Hoffmeister for her recent record-breaking circumnavigation of Australia.

Fixed price £1200. I live near Glasgow in Scotland. Email wom.davis@ntlworld.com
