Sadly many first time paddlers didn’t think about weight when they bought their first kayak.

After you’ve lugged a 50-lbs kayak down to the water a few times, you’ll wish you’d bought a Santee 100. At 33 lbs, the Santee 100 is extraordinarily light, easy to carry and launch. Once you’re launched, you’re in one of the most stable and efficient 10-ft kayaks ever built. The front and rear bulkheads are unheard of in a kayak of this length. They provide superior buoyancy, which is a very desirable safety feature. The below deck storage provides lots of room to carry gear for your adventures. The strong keel lines of the Santee 100 hull help keep it tracking like a longer kayak, but without the extra weight and transport issues. Get ready for some envious glances, since people will think your Santee 100 is a composite kayak costing far more than you paid. If you want the ultimate lightweight kayak, check out the Santee 100 LT at a gossamer 31 lbs!
