The Vela has been designed solely for the smaller, lighter paddler requiring a quick sea kayak with a degree of stability.
With a beam 54cm ( 21 1/4" ) it is in the width band of the faster kayaks and the innovative hard chined, light, convex curved hull provides the maximum possible stability for a kayak of this beam.
Although quick, the Vela is surprisingly stable and with a length of 477cm ( 15'8") the kayak is more manageable both on and off the water.
