The kayak has been designed to fit a range of kayakers from approx 5ft 4inch to 6ft 4inches tall. The kayak has plenty of room for large feet and a low back deck to facilitate an easy layback roll. The seat can be raised for the smaller paddler. The kayak has a ridge along the front deck and hull to help stiffen the kayak. The kayak has twenty one recessed deck fittings to allow a choice of storage locations for split paddles (Spare paddles) etc.

The kayak has a Keyhole cockpit.  The kayak has fairly boxy rails offering good initial and secondary stability. A flattish hull promoting better surfing characteristics, this also helps in a following sea. Kayaks in both specification come with three hatches to include a day hatch just behind the paddler, footrests, wire Kari-Tek skeg system with the slide control for the skeg at seam level, back rest, deck lines, compass recess and toggles. With the fiberglass cockpit rim a cheaper nylon spray deck can be used.
