Our favorite in the Mirage series for speed and efficiency. The narrow hull and long length mean that this kayak paddles as well as it 'pedals'! Add the sail option and you have a great kayak for all conditions.

| Review: | I love this thing. its a great touring boat and does very well in moderate chop. the wave piercing design of the bow tends to get me pretty wet. It has more internal and external storage space than i could ever need. If you are thinking about buying this kayak, you need to get the larger sailing rudder. It will still work without it, but the improvement in the turning radius is like night and day. i bought this kayak for touring and as an exercising platform. My only real problem with it, is that it's almost too fast. Your friends in the conventional kayaks aren't going to be able to keep up with you, even when you are using the standard fins. I can't say for sure, but i wouldn't be surprised if this is one of the fastest and most efficient human powered watercrafts on the market today. | ||||

| Review: | I like this boat. I am not a paddle kayaker though I have done it. I was drawn to this model because I want to use my legs for propulsion and can travel the waters of Puget Sound. I am impressed with the overall design of the boat. It seems faster than a paddle kayak and I love having a hand free while pedaling. It seems stable though I haven't had it in rough weather yet. The hatches and pockets work well from the sitting position and you can sit sideways on the center hatch and just float. I was a bit disappointed in the setup of the rudder and drive. The drive needed adjustment to center the fins and the rudder needed to be taken apart and greased, and readjusted to go up or down at all. Overall, I think it's a good boat at a reasonable price. | ||||
