Tsunami 145 Kayak with Rudder

Quick on the water and roomy in the cockpit, the Wilderness Systems Tsunami 145 Kayak with Rudder is the ideal balance of comfort and efficiency, and it now comes with a drop-down rudder to keep you on the straight and narrow. Inherent in Wilderness Systems' design, the overall stability is evident as the multi-chined hull keeps this boat on an even keel in the event that the wind stirs up swells or you're trying to turn on an edge.

A touring hull design means the Tsunami slices through water with the speed and stealth of the latest military boondoggle. At least in this case nobody will be on the hook for a billion dollars per vehicle. The moderate V on the bottom offers outstanding initial tracking ability, and multiple chines create sidewall rigidity. Not only does this extend the life of your boat, but multi-chines enhance primary and secondary stability, tipping is tricky while tracking gets glorious. The BTS rudder takes this already-awesome tracking boat and converts it into a screaming arrow of directed speed, regardless of water conditions. In concert, the hull design and rudder let long-time paddlers and novices alike enjoy a stable touring platform.
