The Sprint evolved from a wild water race kayak.

It was made a bit longer to glide better and a bit wider for more stability. Iit was designed about 20 years ago to compete in ocean races and is still our fastest kayak. A long hull with very little rocker helps the Sprint to track very well; use of the rudder in following seas results in exception surfing abilty even on very small waves. It is not well suited as your primary touring kayak but makes a great work out boat or one for those who want to race in the fast sea kayak category.
