Kayak - Aquaterra Sea Lion

The Aquaterra Sea Lion (Now Perception) is a sought after, great, all round kayak. Fast on the water, very stable, and with the up-swept bow keeps the nose above the waves. The thigh braces add an extra level of stability and serve well for advanced paddling technique. Cross winds and wave action are not a problem–– drop the rudder and stay on course. This is an excellent day trip or touring adventure kayak with plenty of cargo space under two large capacity, bulkheaded (Front & Rear) watertight hatches. The seat contains a cup nolder and the seat back is adjustable. This kayak has had all the deck roping replaced with added tube hand holds, the rudder assembly and foot slides have been stripped and repainted and the rudder guidewire has been replaced and optimized, including stainless steel shackles and thimbles for easy detachment. The seatback roping and bungee have been replaced to provide an easy adjustment setting to raise or recline the seat back. The adjustable foot pegs can handle any paddler (shortest recommended inseam for footpegs is 30”) The rear hatch cover has a double strap for additional on-deck gear storage for multi-day trips. Equipped with front carry handle and rear hand grip under rudder assembly. Minimal scratching and ideal for rocky entrance/exists. The reflective side stripping is in very good condition with minor tears in some places. This is an excellent kayak for beginners through advanced–– one I seriously considered keeping for myself after this restoration.
