One of the best day-touring kayaks I've ever had the pleasure to paddle! The Tsunami is Wilderness System's newest addition to the family and will be replacing the Cape Lookout series in 2005 season.
Tsunami is an extremely responsive performance oriented day tourer. Its chimes and mild rocker allow great turning ability yet it tracks like it is on a rail. Acceleration is effortless as is cruising speed. The seat makes me feel like I’m sitting in my living room! You don’t have to worry about limbs falling asleep in this boat.
Tsunami looks like a full-on touring boat squeezed down into a more compact setup. It features touring style deck rigging and perimeter safety lines. Bow stern hatches and a day hatch! Thigh braces and an optional rudder.
Being an artist I must complement the aesthetics of this kayak. The design is beautiful! A perfect combination of form and function.
If you are some one who wants do a little bit of everything than this boat is for you. Tsunami is a small boat with a big attitude. Perfect for someone just entering the world of paddling. In comparison to other manufacturer’s boats in the same class, this boat surely beats them all. |
