The Expedition XP 480 is the littlest brother in the Expeditions family.

This is a new model of the year 2009. This kayak is the best for paddlers from 45 kg to 75 kg. It is the best choice for ladies, smaller men or junior paddlers. The volume of Expedition XP 480 is smaller than 270 L compared to our bestseller the Expedition which is 370 L.

This kayak model can be gotten in new special edition colors with red, yellow and blue stripes from painter and designer Maria Simson. Be different and choose something special for yourself.

Expedition combines speed, stability, volume, weight and design very well! Few kayaks can match its all round capabilities. One of the first things you will notice on this kayaks is the elegant lines. Expedition has a modern Swedish form, witch means that it is wider behind the cockpit. The Swedish form gives the kayak a longer waterline. Compared to stability, this is a very fast kayak. On the sea you will notice right away how stabile and safe it feels when the waves are coming surprisingly. If you are experiencing bad weather, it will surprise you with what a good speed you will manage to keep up. If you are going on longer journeys, you will appreciate the large and spacious hatches of this kayak.

The expedition comes with two generous compartments and a small reachable one, where you can keep you cell-phone. It also comes with a special hatch for your fishing rod or a lantern. We have managed to manufacture one of the best sea kayaks on the market, with a unique feeling of stability and safety. The kayak has only got one limit, and that’s you!!!
