Northshore Aspect RM

Nimble 15ft Touring Kayak, Made in the UK

The North Shore Aspect is a kayak designed around sea kayakers that are looking for an easy-to-use boat that provides a good alternative to a full-length sea kayak.

The Aspect is a much more manageable boat to use due to the shorter length and less weight. Combined with soft chines, this makes for a really confidence inspiring boat. Soft chines make the boat really predictable in choppy conditions allowing you to easily paddle through and over chop. They also help the boat to track really well in a straight line this is because the boat will sit lower in the water than a hard chine boat allowing it to keep moving forward without getting impacted by things such as the wind and water conditions.

With a shallow v shaped hull and not too much rocker, the Aspect will carry its speed and track well enabling you to paddle longer trips and the occasional overnighter.

Made from a tough triple layer construction, it has a foam inner layer sandwiched between two plastic layers. This will massively increase stiffness while keeping the weight of the boat down.
There are also lots of features that have been taken from longer sea kayaks that have been designed into the Aspect. Front and rear bulkheads allow you to store enough kit for a long day’s paddling. As well as this the Aspect has a moulded compass recess, deck line and bungee and a retractable skeg.

This boat comes in a standard size and the LV (Low volume) for smaller adults or kids.

If you are looking for an easy-to-use confidence inspiring boat, or are a smaller paddler, the North Shore Aspect would be a good fit for you.
