The Mill Creek 16.5 is a tandem sea kayak with a cockpit so large that it is almost an open boat: an open boat with a huge volume of buoyancy. It is a versatile boat that can be paddled, sailed or rowed with a sliding seat. The Mill Creek was designed as a wider, shorter and more stable alternative to the typical sea kayak. It offers the stability sought by nature photographers, fishermen and bird watchers. Mahogany trim on cockpits and rails, cambered decks and contoured slatted seats add elegance whilst the fibreglassed 6mm bottom panel will absorb years of groundings in shoal water.These comfortable, versatile boats have good handling, rewarding speed, stability and classic good looks.

The Mill Creeks have found fans among paddlers of all skill levels because they offer so much boat in such a light and easy-to-manage package. The Mill Creek 16.5 will carry two adults together with camping gear but is still light enough to be paddled by one. It is hugely popular since it can be fitted with a sailing rig or a drop-in rowing unit Mill Creeks offer good speed and handling that you will never get tired of.
