Speed and stability packed into a 4.5 metre kayak.
We used our race winning hull from the Avenger Mk2 wild water racer and lowered the sides and spliced on a shortened version of the Wizard LD deck.
Being based off the Avenger makes the Bandicoot both fast and relatively stable for a kayak with a 4.5-metre hull length and 43 cm width at the join.
The angled-out sides leave a narrower hull in the water with improved secondary stability.
Length 4.5 Metres. Width 43 cm. Cockpit: K1
