The boats will not be released until OR in August. These boats are still in ProtoTyping so that we can get them fine tuned to be the best they can be. You will not see them on the retail market until probably September/October although I do hope to have one before then that folks can set up appointments to demo.

I will however be at Fred Hall as will our Sales Rep and possibly Dave Easton for the Del mar show. All of us have paddled and had a part in the design of these kayaks and would be more than happy to discuss them with you.

any problems with the GIANT front hatch leaking?


own(ed) a couple malibu kayaks and HATED the huge front hatches because it seemed there was ALWAYS a leak.

These boats had hatches that were not production models so we really cant say how well the hatches seal. The boats being a prototype nature have pinholes and leaks in them making seeing this stuff hard to judge. Plus I played for hours in the surf and any boat would have leakage issues.

Overall I will say that you will find this hatch leaking to be non-issue
