Nelo Viper 60. K1 single Kayak. 5.2 Metres. 12KG. Stability 8. I brought new from from Ultimate Kayaks in October last year (2020).
I trained hard over the winter, so there's are a few scratches and two deeper scratches (last two pics shown) - which I taped over -but would be an easy repair. I found this kayak to be fast yet stable. I was able to take her out on a fast flowing Thames in high winds without tipping in, and I'm no expert. She's a fast cruiser, obviously not like a stability 1 boat, but she's happy at 10kph and will cruise at 12 kph (if you can). I took her down the Thames for a 200 k jaunt over the Easter weekend and she was an ideal companion.
Fast, light, and looks lovely. The tape you can see in the main pic has been removed - it was for navigation and night lights. So, if your looking for a fast cruising boat, pretty new but with a few scratches I'd recommend this Kayak. Here's what Nelo say about the Viper: The Viper 60 is the entry-level boat for non experienced paddlers from the Viper line.With the volume of a classic touring model, a max-width of 60 cm and 520 cm in length, the 60 will be the boat for any non-experienced athlete looking for his/her first fitness boat.The Viper FamilyThe Viper has been one of the most successful and long-term lines in the Nelo Range.The fitness boat concept of the Viper has been brought to the paddling sport making it possible to train or tour with great glide and not compromising any stability.Its wide range from 42 to 60 max beam offers a solution for every paddler, always providing the common ability to perform and comfort.In this range the level of equipment and extras is unmatchable and at exactly the same level as the racing kayaks from Nelo.This Item is also advertised elsewhere so I reserve the right to pull it before the end of this sales period.
