 Eider Two Cockpit Double

18 feet- 6 inches (5.6 meters )
 26 inches. ( 0.64 meters)
10-1/2 foot open cockpit

An 18-1/2 foot by 24 inch double kayak for day tripping and over night camping trips. This two cockpits version with three hatches is designed for seaworthy paddling and dry storage in rougher waters. The Eider is intended as a relatively compact double for day-tripping. She is narrower and shorter than most boats on the market for manoeuvrability and light weight but retains a long waterline for speed and ease of paddling.
