Overview |
The Explorer is SKUK's flag
ship. The expeditions
it has completed says it
all. Japan, New
Zealand, Great Britain,
Iceland, Ireland, South
Georgia, Easter Island,
Tasmania, Newfoundland
etc... It is not the
fastest expedition kayak but
is predictable and reliable.
You know how its going to
react and that the
construction can withstand
anything you throw at it. |
