The award-winning Perception Expression series of versatile sit-inside kayaks combine the forgiving handling and stability expected of a touring design with the speed and storage of an expedition kayak. Spacious dry storage means it”s capable of multi-day journeys- yet still fast, fun, and agile for simple day trips. The clean, streamlined design is easy to store and transport. The 11.5 model”s versatile 11-foot-6 design offers an unbeatable blend of performance and comfort. The roomy sit-in cockpit and superior stability is perfect for beginners, while experienced paddlers will enjoy its speed and handling. The short length easily explores tight areas, yet the boat still has the length for effortless open water crossings. Long days and overnight excursions are a pleasure thanks to the deluxe comfort of a six-point adjustable seat. The Expression can also be upgraded with a rudder (sold separately) for increased maneuverability and tracking if desired.
Progressive rocker offers maneuverable handling. Up-swept bow and peaked deck shed water and provide more speed and performance than an average touring kayak.
Console and large rear open storage with bungee cord lashes to keep essentials handy. Front and rear dry storage with easy-on/off sealed covers, compartmentalized with bulkhead foam for added buoyancy and safety.
Zone DLX Seating- Adjustable Premium Seat with extra-cushy ergonomic padding; seatback adjusts forwards, backwards, up and down. Tilt-adjust seat bottom supports thighs in the perfect paddling position.
TruTrak adjustable skeg with cockpit control to stay on course in current and wind.
Spacious easy-entry cockpit is spray skirt compatible for added dryness. Optimized design and construction makes this boat easier to carry at only 44 lbs.

The kayak is great. Very smooth in the water. I highly recommend it. However it took considerably longer to arrive, close to a month, and had three significant dents in it. The largest on the underside. No one ever got back to me when I reached out to the company.

Took this kayak out today for the first time. Went for a 6 mile paddle. This is a very nice kayak. The drop down skeg really works well tracking the boat straight. With the skeg up the boat is really nimble turning quite quickly if you want to. The boat was a lot “livelier? than I expected. Even though this is marketed as a recreational kayak it's performance puts it a little above that. Good boat, well constructed with a very comfortable seat. I'm 6'1? 205 lbs and paddle hard.
