Pyranha Karnali Whitewater Kayak Size Large

Hi there and welcome to my auction for my Karnali. If you are reading this you have probably done the same research I did and know exactly how good this boat is. I have had it for a couple of years and have decided it’s not getting used enough and I’m getting too old! So I’m settling into some family blackwater kayaking! It is fitted with the higher spec ‘Connect 30’ whitewater outfitting which has the seat pan with padded liner and front to back adjustment.

Connect Hip Pads Padded, thermoformed hip pads with adjustment shims for a secure fit. Connect Thigh Grips Padded, lightweight thigh grips with fore/aft adjustment. Connect Ratchet Backband Padded backband with height adjustment and ratchet adjustable support. Also included with this kayak are Airbags in rear storage compartment, Palm XL spray deck in decent condition and an old Pyranha spray deck that has been sewn up to use when it’s on the roof (see pics) Condition is good for a used whitewater boat with a few scrapes in the hull but nothing too serious and no repairs. Volume is 303 litres Length 260cm x width 66.5cm Paddler weight capacity: between 80kg - 130kg I am 5’ 8 and 85kg and this kayak fits me with plenty of adjustment in the seat and footrest to accommodate a much taller paddler.

What Pyranha Say about the Karnali; A truly forgiving, high volume River Runner and Creeking kayak that has such a predictable ride it will keep you inspired to get back out on the water and progress from your very first days to long into your paddling life. Developed from the World leading Burn, but with softer and more forgiving edges vs the edge and extreme responsiveness of the Burn. With a remarkably stable hull, softened edge profile and generous rocker, the Karnali puts your mind at ease and allows you to concentrate on the river ahead rather than what's happening underneath you. Yet there's still fantastic performance potential that's only available in a semi planing hull such as on the Karnali. High knee, and low hip cockpit combing with Pyranha's key hole cockpit and new lower seat position gives great comfort for hours in the kayak, and makes the Karnali especially easy to roll.

Helping further with your peace of mind, the Karnali comes with the latest outfitting and safety innovations connecting you with the kayak whilst paddling your favourite run or tackling your first or latest big mission abroad. Collection only from near junction 15 of the M4. Near Swindon.
