Increased speed, control and gear storage with ultra-comfortable outfitting, means there's nothing to hold you back.
A modern hull design incorporates a strong V-shaped bow and stern with defined chines to provide true directional stability and splendid edge control. Predictable handling, manoeuvrability and impressive forward speed gives paddlers all the performance needed for that great expedition. Good initial and secondary stability will allow you to take your sea touring experiences to new levels, whether you are an expert or developing your paddling skills.
The Essence 16 is ideal if your paddling style suits a slightly livelier and more nimble ride. Snugger ergonomics than the Essence 17 allow for close control and also give a great fit for smaller paddlers.
The Essence series is everything you need for that week-long, once in a lifetime trek or a more exciting day on the water that you only get with a design that's truly an extension of your body.
