Day / Weekend Touring Kayaks 

Day/Weekend Touring Kayaks have a lot of benefits for the waters of western New York State. These kayaks are a bit longer and narrower than the Rec Kayaks, but are still very manageable for a novice paddler. At 12'6"-15' long these boats are efficient on open water and still quite maneuverable in smaller creeks and rivers. Day/Weekend touring boats can also be easily loaded to accommodate a camping trip. An excellent option for the paddler looking for efficiency over distance with out the length of a full size Sea Kayak that can sometimes be intimidating on smaller bodies of water.
