The Eddyline Journey is a 15'5' lightweight kayak, great for day trips and shorter overnights. It features hard chines and a retractable skeg in thermoformed composite construction (TCC), adjustable back-band (not tall seat back), front 10" round hatch and oval rear hatch (all are Select Designs rubber hatches). Hip and thigh bracing are good, cockpit ergonomics excellent, foot braces are easy to adjust while in the cockpit. The seat has 3 inches of travel front and back to help paddlers dial in the correct trim and fit.
