NDK Explorer - $1,750 - (Peaks Island, ME)
The Nigel Dennis Kayak, Explorer, is one of the baseline expedition sea kayaks in our sports. Its Award winning design is Sea Kayak UK's main expedition kayak for the medium sized paddler for real world rough water paddling and covering distances. Its faster than the Romany family, tho less maneuverable, with greater directionally stable, and with more glide per stroke. The Explorer is clearly one of the baseline expedition sea kayaks with its rugged, durable and easily repairable NDK build quality and larger carrying capacity. It has been used on numerous month long expeditions, including several in the Arctic and Antarctica carrying all supplies with no support. The Explorer paddles like the Romany series with a longer bow up front but with the same high secondary stability and great down wave surfing. It is fitted with a second generation fiberglass seat, low rear deck for easy rolling, long keyhole cockpit for excellent fit and quick exits as needed. It has the same sloping bulkhead behind the seat allowing for quick emptying of the kayak?s cockpit by lifting only the bow, no x-rescue is necessary. The Explorer has three times won a Sea Kayaker Magazine Readers Choice award for Best Expedition kayak. MIKCo had this custom ordered Explorer built in 1999 for our guide. It is Rail Blue/White/Black, with a heavy duty layup, keel strip, 34" front bulkhead, with rear rope skeg, an integrated cockpit pump w recessed fitting for handle, fitted rear deck tow cleat and custom back band.
