The Outer Island was designed by Jay Babina with performance, rolling ability, low windage and speed as the main criteria. At 18 feet and only 21 inches wide and with very little hull rocker, it has loads of speed for touring. Its low rear deck makes it a perfect fit for the beginner to advanced eskimo roller. Soft chines allow for graceful control between steady primary and secondary stability, allowing for increased success even when perfecting the most challenging of greenland rolls and braces. Whether you love this kayak for its sheer elegance, fast touring, or as a rolling machine, we promise you will love it. The shallow V design is standard to Impex boats and allows for greater primary stability. There is a great compromise between stability and performance that allows these kayaks to appeal to all ends of the ability spectrum. The Outer Island has flatter rocker which gives it great speed and great tracking. The lower rear deck makes rolling a breeze.
