Kayak. Q-Kayaks Tasman Express 5.3m

KAYAK. Q-kayaks TASMAN EXPRESS 5.3m. These details are from the website - Tasman Express Sea Kayak The Tasman Express is an exceptional performance sea kayak. At 5.3 metres long, this sleek looking craft has been designed to maintain a good forward speed, especially when loaded up with gear. Its low profile and flared bow enables this kayak to perform extremely well in adverse or windy conditions. An aerodynamic rudder blade is fitted to prevent drag and increase forward speed and turning performance.

A centre "storage box" is moulded in just behind the cockpit. The wall thickness of the box is only 2mm, allowing for much more storage area, while providing a watertight compartment with easy access.NameTasman Express Category1 person sea kayakNumber of people1 adultMade inNew ZealandManufacturerQ-Kayaks Warranty2 yearsLength5.3mWeight29kg (standard) 25kg (lite)CapacitykgUse onOceanBays Lakes Estuaries Flat water rivers Main FeaturesDeck lines all aroundRetractable rudder Adjustable footrestsPadded seat and backrestTwo hatches that access internal storage areasDay hatch that can be accessed on the waterStorages areas are sealed by bulkheads Front deck bungy storageOptionsLite Weight versionAccessoriesSpraydeckColour OptionsPrices$2,845 (standard weight) $3,055 (lite weight) Condition is used and I would recommend servicing of the rudder wires. Scratches are consistent with use, but dont affect the kayak's performance. The seat is worn - see photos. This can also be replaced if desired.

This kayak has given us many hours of lake paddling and is also suitable for ocean kayaking. See online for great reviews of this excellent model. Inspection and questions welcome. See separate listing of another slightly smaller kayak. Pick up only from Budgewoi, NSW(Central Coast) after October 30
