The longest multisport kayak in the range. The Time Bandit is remarkable for its speed, turning ability and ease of handling.
The length and volume of this boat make it particularly suitable for paddlers over 75 kg. The Time Bandit has established itself as the multisport kayak against which all others are judged.
Comes standard with a trailing rudder but can be fitted with an underslung rudder as pictured. It can also have both rudders as an optional extra.
The Bandit comes in 3 deck configurations. The original (above) with a lower front deck towards the nose is good in most conditions and excellent in strong side winds.
The low deck is also now available with a longer keyhole cockpit for faster transitions.
The big deck (below) was made for paddlers that were taking on the skis in ocean races to help the bow lift out of the swell. It also proved popular with paddlers in white water and into heavy chop.
