You will often see this kayak traveling with Makaira.

It is a design by Nick Shade from Guillmot kayaks and made by Nikolas with great care. The magic is that it all starts with a wooden beam which is cut and planed to produce many thin strips which are given the final shape of the boat, which is why it is called a strip kayak.

It is made of Canadian red cedar, with oak reinforcements, carbon interiors, epoxy varnish and fiberglass.

It is 5.20 meters long and weighs 12 kilos.

It is flexible, fast and stable, while its size makes it suitable for both short and long excursions.
