Yo Pete

My guillemot standard S&G is just fine for everything. From flat calm it is just beautifull and glides along straight and effortlessly. Beginners including my 75 year old father through to my 14 yr old son paddle along with this stupid satisfied grin on their faces.

Being half a maniac I have also taken my guillemot out in some moderate conditions: 30 kt gusting winds and 2 m ocean swells. The kayak handled the half exteme conditions with aplomb and is altogether satisfying. I particularly like the upturned bow and eskimo-ish good looks.

Nick says its is : 'guillemot performance kayaks' and I don't think he is kidding.

GO FOR IT

Pete
