The Eddyline Sitka ST is a lightweight, high-performing touring kayak for small to medium paddlers
The Eddyline Sitka ST kayak is a high-performance touring kayak designed for small to medium paddlers who enjoy exploring open water and long-distance touring. The kayak has a sleek, narrow profile that allows it to glide smoothly through the water, and it is made from Eddylines lightweight and durable material Carbonlite, which makes it both sturdy and easy to maneuver on and off the water. It features a roomy cockpit that is easy to enter and exit, and it comes with an adjustable seat and footrests that can be customized for a comfortable fit. The kayak also has a large, watertight storage compartment in the stern, as well as two hatches in the bow. Bungee cords on the bow and stern for additional storage.
The Sitka ST has a length of 13’9″ inches and a width of 22.5″, which makes it longer and narrower than your typical recreational kayaks. Designed to handle a variety of conditions, from calm lakes, rivers class I – II and coastal waters. It has a pronounced keel and chine that help it track straight and maintain stability, and its low profile makes it less susceptible to wind and waves. The kayak also has a retractable skeg that can be deployed to improve tracking in windy or rough conditions.
The Sitka combines the best of both worlds – the performance, efficiency, and tracking of the Eddyline Fathom touring kayaks, together with the playful nimble spirit of the Eddyline recreational kayaks.
Technology: Thermoform Composite Technology – Carbonlite
Eddyline has been a leader in manufacturing and design technology innovation throughout history. In 1995, the company pioneered thermoform composite technology for the construction of kayaks. While thermoforming is a standard manufacturing process, the raw materials used vary significantly between kayak manufacturers. Our proprietary Carbonlite™ material is the result of years of refinement. Carbonlite looks and performs like fiberglass with clear advantages over other plastics:
