Big Adventure for the Youngest Paddlers
Many Single Kayaks are right at the edge of what small children can easily handle in weight and size. Until now, there have been almost no Children/Youngster sit on tops available at a sensible price.
The Pelican Solo has changed all this. The Solo is a very lightweight, compact sit on top kayak aimed specifically at children and youngsters. Capable of being manouvered by children as young as six, its a great adventure companion to have, right up until they reach their teens (max capacity 10 stone).
The Solo, being agile, can help kids learn how to paddle and explorer the joys of being on the water without the struggle of controlling the boat taking all the fun away.
Being a "sit on top", the boat is sealed from the water, is self draining and so is very buoyant and even if tipped over is easy to climb back on to unlike a traditional "sit in" kayak.
The Solo is not only the lightest kayak we do but also with its child friendly paddling position it is both agile and easy to use. Being only 8kg in weight its easy to throw it on the car roof or even put it in the boot if you have an estate or hatch back. When not in use its small enough to put in the garage, garden shed or the junk room. If covered with a small tarpaulin it can even be stored in the garden.
Made of tough Polyethylene it will stand all the fun kids will have with it.
(We recommend all children wear the appropriate personal floatation devices and are given the correct level of supervision for the conditions)
