The Stellar Kingfisher, the 2nd generation of the popular S16S is a transitional sit-on-top, stable enough for entry level and intermediate paddlers to feel comfortable, but fast enough for fitness paddling and racing! The open cockpit, rounded seat and 3-point footboard is very comfortable and responsive, keeping you on track to where you want to go.

Two water tight hatches allow for modest storage for day tripping and overnight adventures. In the ocean, the Kingfisher is a blast, easily catching waves and carving on the waves. The Kingfisher's light weight makes it responsive to your power on the water and with its cockpit handles, it is a breeze to carry and car-top.

Layup Options:

Advantage: Great combination of weight, stiffness, durability and cost. Gelcoat finished heat cured infused epoxy Fiberglass and Soric® core laminate is very tough and resists against punctures. A great race boat on a tight budget. The Advantage hits the mark for price to weight ratio for most kayak paddlers.

Excel: Very stiff and light, yet more affordable than the Alpha. Kevlar® adds impact strength to the laminate - Gelcoat finished heat cured epoxy Kevlar® and Fiberglass laminate with Nomex® Honeycomb Core. Great for racing, or those looking for a light boat, but not as impact resistant as the Multi-sport or Advantage constructions.

Alpha (Pre-Order Only): The ultimate racing machine - High modulus, high temperature cured uni-directional carbon fibre for the most advanced and stiffest boat on the market.
