We met Brad and Chuck at Ahous Beach and they had a good set up, using a Current Design Solstice and an extended, home made CLC 17 foot kayak, they were out for a long weekend and appeared to be camping in style. So a number of their kayaks have enough volume to hold what you want to take, rather than what you can cut down and survive with. I have to hand it to the Canadian's when they go kayak camping they don't skimp on taking the comforts of home. The Telkwa was designed to be a fully fledged ocean touring kayak, capable of doing unsupported trips of at least a couple of weeks duration, and it has a huge capacity. One appeared to be brand new.īoth Marty and I used Nimbus Telkwa's and Gilly used the slightly smaller Nimbus Solander. The kayaks provided by Majestic Ocean Kayaking were excellent, in very good condition and designed for the task. At 10 feet long and 2.5 feet wide, it’s sturdy, spacious, and equipped to handle all kinds of fresh air adventures. Likewise, Old Town has been building crafts for the sportsmen of Maine and beyond since 1898. Sit-on-top kayaks are known for being sturdy and beginner-friendly, and we recommend Lifetime’s Teton 100 Angler Kayak as the best on the market. The brand began making blow-up boats in the 1950s and is now. This makes sense, since they have been building water toys on the coast of Southern California for more than 50 years. Sevylor has a history that dates back to 1948, when the company began making inflatable PVC products in post-war France. This is in no way intended as an in depth review, more my personal observation, I'll leave a proper critic to more qualified kayakers. A brand like Hobie has long been at the forefront of coastal fishing kayak design. ![]() ![]() It is always good to try other kayaks, so this post is my view of the kayak I used in Clayoquot Sound.
