Our longest single touring kayak, designed to get you where you're going as efficiently as possible. Whether serving duty on a crossing or paralleling the coast, it combines speed and sea worthiness with surprising stability for its 20 inch beam. While slightly less maneuverable than her shorter siblings, it offers a foot more length for only a pound more. An extremely capable "passage-maker" with good turn of speed, great sea-worthiness and surprising stability for such a slender craft. Though somewhat stiffer tracking and a little less maneuverable than its shorter siblings, the 18 is still very nimble. Comfortable cockpit fit and adjustable outfitting afford a superb interface between paddler and boat.
Greenland inspired coastal play boats built to tame the biggest conditions - high winds, surf, and tidal races. Their hard chined/soft edged hulls offer the ultimate in stability and handling on edge to dig in and out of rock gardens or taking that unexpected wave. Our design team thought of everything from offering outstanding neutrality in wind to help reduce weather-cocking to placing the recessed compass mount in a location that reduces sea sickness. Equally at home on Vancouver's West Coast, playing in the 8+ knot currents of Deception Pass, or camping along the Maine Island Trail, Chathams are the ultimate performers in rough water conditions where high wind and rough seas prevail.
Awarded "best" gear honors by both National Geographic Adventure and Men's Journal.
