The Perception Essence redefines sea kayak design. Solid tracking yet highly maneuverable, allowing experts and novices alike to push their abilities to new levels. Comfortable stability and great ergonomics equal predictable performance. This kayak edges very well and the handling is predictable. At 17 feet long this boat has a very good top speed for those long treks and tracks very straight due to the skeg you can deploy at a moments notice. Cockpit comfort can be found in the Zone EXP seat which has several adjustments to get that perfect fit specific to you. Bow, mid ship and stern dry storages provide ample storage for anything you could desire to bring on your trip. Bow and stern deck rigging offer areas to put your sponge, paddle float and bilge pump. Speed, control and comfort are what this kayak is all about, so pack up your camping gear, your food and beverages and fill up the storages! This kayak is ready for an epic journey the only thing its missing is an excited paddler, you!

If your expedition requires a map, then you’re going to need the added speed, comfort, and storage found in the Essence 17.0. It’s everything you need for that weeklong, once in a lifetime trek, or a more exciting day on the water that can only be had with a design that’s truly an extension of your body.
