A mid-sized kayak for paddlers appreciating great contact, high manoeuvrability, stern tracking and a wind-cheating silhouette but who find Dex too small and Distance too big. Differ offers more packing space and carries more weight than Dex but with a slightly more v-shaped and narrow hull, making it more like Distance with regards to speed and tracking. Still happy to catch a wave. Differ is 17’7” long and 20.3” wide. It has the same highly appreciated deck layout as its two sister boats, Dex and Distance. It has three watertight compartments and is equipped with the kajak-Sport skeg system. Carbon light (CL) hull of carbon fiber sandwich with diolen resin with a deck constructed in fiberglass and vinylester.
CL has the same rigidness as the XR but is by far the most lightweight lay up of the three.
The Differ is prepared for use with a rudder, yet the rudder is an option.
