Stellar Tandem 21′ Touring Kayak (ST21) The Stellar 21′ Tandem (ST21) Sea Kayak has long, efficient hull lines that will slice through the water. With a narrow catch and our durable, yet light weight laminates, the ST21 is at home for racing as it is in on long tours quickly eating the miles. 2 storage hatches and 3 bulkheads provide ample storage and stiffness and an over stern rudder helps with steering in challenging conditions. A full 3 point footbrace provides you with stable platform for a strong leg drive, while a formed seat pad and thigh brace provide comfort and stability when it gets rough. Alpha – Woven Weight: 48.5 lbs / 22kgDescription:Extremely stiff and light – The ultimate paddling machine that is also easy to move off of the water. Clear finished, heat cured epoxy woven Toray 3k Carbon Fiber laminate with Nomex Honeycomb Core. Excel Weight: 55.1 lbs / 25kgDescription:Very stiff and light, yet more affordable than the Alpha. Kevlar adds impact strength to the laminate – Gelcoat finished heat cured epoxy Kevlar and Fiberglass laminate with Nomex Honeycomb Core. Great for racing, or those looking for a light boat, but not as impact resistant as the Multi-sport or Advantage constructions. Multi-Sport Weight: 57.3 lbs / 26kgDescription:Single skin laminate hull made of Carbon & Kevlar fabric, with clear gelcoat finish, and the deck is the standard Advantage construction. The hull is designed to be flexible and durable, but creates a stiff boat that can take some abuse in class I and II rapids and shallows, but is also at home in the ocean or the flats. The Surf Ski Multi-Sport construction comes standard with an over-stern rudder, as well as a flush mounted Andersen Super mini-bailer. Advantage Weight: 57.3 lbs / 26kgDescription:Great combination of weight, stiffness, durability and cost. Gelcoat finished heat cured infused epoxy Fiberglass and Soric core laminate is very tough and resists against punctures. A great race boat on a tight budget. The Advantage hits the mark for price to weight ratio for most kayak paddlers. The Stellar Difference!
