The Horizon is a versatile two-cockpit tandem kayak for short trips or multi-day expeditions on lakes, rivers or the coast.

As with all our touring kayaks, the emphasis is on user friendly handling in combination with high performance. Particular attention is paid to paddler comfort, with roomy cockpits and confidence inspiring stability. For a dry ride, even in choppy water, the high volume bow rides over waves deflecting spray away from the cockpit areas. A long waterline gives the Horizon excellent directional stability but is still nimble enough for inland trips around backwater creeks.
