Valley Genesis 15 RM
Durable and Agile Coastal Play Sea Kayak
The Valley Genesis 15.0 RM is a high performing compact and playful kayak so makes a great choice for coastal touring, rock play and surfing. It is also surprisingly efficient with good tracking, plenty of glide and enough storage for a few days away. If you are looking for a kayak that is versatile and responsive then this is a great choice.
Manufactured in the UK using a triple layer construction, the Genesis RM is rigid and has clean lines with a sleek and responsive feel on the water. The hull has nicely designed chines with rails that are well-defined through the central section then becoming softer towards the bow and stern allowing for easy release and effortless transition between edges. Rocker along the keel line is progressive and very nicely balanced.
Three bulkhead storage compartments make it easy to organise your kit. Just behind the cockpit is a day hatch for gear you might need while on the water. The large hatch in the stern makes it easy to load bulky items and there is a mid-sized hatch in the bow. All of the hatch covers are made by the tried and trusted KajakSport brand. Criss-cross bungees are provided for on deck storage and there are safety deck lines around the perimeter.
If you are more into longer distance touring then perhaps take a look at the Valley Etain or one of our other 16ft + kayaks.
