Overview |
The Romany was Nigel's first
sea kayak design. It
was also the first sea kayak
to have a day hatch, and
keyhole cockpit as standard.
The design has stood the
test of time and is still at
the top of its field.
It is the perfect kayak for
exploring, coaching,
surfing, playing and short
expeditions. |
