Schiwitz KAYAK

1st part.

Final Release

Designed by Nick Schade and made by SCHIWITZ KAYAK as a responsive, light-weight boat suitable for day trips in rough water it is equally at home poking into sheltered estuaries or exploring the shore of isolated coves. This design was developed to carry a 90kg., 1.85m paddler on day trips, but it is small scale enough that it would also work well for substantially smaller paddlers. It is meant as a day tripping boat for larger paddlers, and would not have the capacity for extended trips, but if you are a smaller paddler there is enough interior volume to carry a fair amount of gear. Length: 5.2m. Beam: 50.8cm. Waterline Length: 4.6m. Waterline Beam: 50.5cm. Weight 17kg.

Petrel Kayak: A difficult type of boat-building which demands experience. It is made with great precision and all the details make boat really great (wooden seat, back-support dressed in leather…)

Kayak can be seen and tested in Gmunden - Austria.
