If one needs a fast intermediate touring kayak with more initial stability, the Swift delivers. The latest version of this venerable design incorporates flush hatches and fittings while allowing for an optional day-hatch for easy gear access. A popular choice with intermediate paddlers, the Swift is ideal for those ready to step into a longer, faster kayak. It possesses a beautifully flared bow combined with low-profile fore and aft decks that keep windage to a minimum.

Fast and easy to paddle, the Swift excels at covering miles quickly and efficiently.
