Prijon Prilite Marlin LV

The Marlin LV (low volume) is designed for the smaller and lighter paddler, 55 - 95kg's. The LV is a slightly shorter kayak than the Marlin, with less volume. Thanks to its lower overall volume and the lower cockpit it offers an optimum sitting position. Very low overall weight due to the Prilite hull.

It is fast yet stable! The Prilite Marlin is surprisingly stable for a boat just 58cm wide. The hard chines allow for plenty of edging on sharp turns, without feeling that you are going to capsize.

Lightweight but durable. Prilite is the kayak technology of the future. The consistency of the thickness of this plastic when formed allows the kayak to be considerably lighter than its polyethylene counterparts, while remaining durable as polyethylene but stiffer. Prilite retains its shape better than polyethylene and blow moulded kayaks

Immaculate finish and trims, deck mounted day-hatch, rudder and nose cap for added strength are just a few of the features that make this a winning combination.

Review of Prijon Prilite Marlin by Steve:

I have been paddling a Prilite Marlin for 11 years and I am still impressed with the craft in many areas. 
My previous poly sea kayak was close to 30 kg, so the Marlin at 23kg is a much easier to manage, especially lifting on and off the car.

As the craft is a multi chine hull it effectively has multiple keels to achieve fantastic tracking, I probably use my rudder about 10% of the time I paddle it. 
The boat also edges very efficiently, aided by the super comfortable padded thigh braces.

I would also rate it as being a very comfortable craft for extended paddles, having spent many hours in the saddle I can vouch for the seat and thigh pad comfort. I have also used my Marlin for many kayak camping expeditions, it will easily swallow enough gear for a three day camp and still cruise at an impressive pace.

The Prilite hull material is also very durable, I have incurred a few bumps and scrapes, with minor scratching, a good compromise between the toughness of Poly and the lightness and stiffness of glass/carbon.

Overall a great mix of lightness, durability, performance and comfort. The Marlin is the best kayak I have ever paddled.
