Looksha 17 w/ Rudder: The Looksha 17 is a sporty, high-volume touring kayak designed for covering distance. With high initial stability, excellent glide and outstanding acceleration, it ensures that strong currents, tides or 4' wind chop up won't slow you down. Designed for all day comfort the ACS seat features a visible, intuitive adjustment system, multi-laminate construction for optimal support and softness, an enhanced seating surface for superior air-flow and drainage and lateral stabilizers which lock the seat in place for that "one with the boat" feeling. The four-way adjustable seat tailors individual backrest height, thigh support, lumbar support and backrest angle to provide a truly customized ride. The retractable aluminum rudder helps tracking in wind and strong currents, and can take lots of abuse. When stowing gear, you'll find the bow and stern hatches are the largest hatch openings ever designed by Necky. The easy to open Cross Lock System also means getting into your hatches is simple. It carries a lot of gear, and its big, yet "performance" fit makes it perfect for longer camping trips or just a day of sightseeing.
Carbon Swell Plus: Make waves with the Swell! This performance paddle is designed for a more relaxed low-angle stroke and crafted with the most discerning kayak devotee in mind. With a T-700 carbon fiber shaft the Swell provides amazing durability for the weight. Balanced and flutter-free composite blades further reduce weight so you can paddle longer with less fatigue. With the Telescoping Adjustable Ferrule, you can customize your paddling experience instantly. Set the feather angle of your blades to minimize wind resistance without causing wrist fatigue. Telescope the Swell to the ideal length for your paddling style and conditions. Perfect for anything from day trips to full-blown expeditions, the Swell offers ultimate performance for any serious paddler.
Tow Motion PFD: The Tow Motion is the Swiss army knife of PFD’s. It offers the most comfortable fit available, and is configured in a way to accommodate the need for maximum storage capability and additional places to put things. The Tow Motion is tow belt ready, allowing one to easily transform this jacket in a rescue vest. Hand-shaped foam elements minimize the vest’s profile, and the rugged Cordura shell will provide years of durability. A cross-chest cinch adjustment eliminates ride-up and fits the vest lower on the torso for full mobility, more effective buoyancy and additional comfort. Stretchy adjustable neoprene shoulders offer great comfort. Roomy pockets offer plenty of storage room. Strobe lash tabs and 3M reflective trim on both front and back increase visibility in low-light conditions. The Tow Motion adds functionality and convenience for any type of paddling.
Tropical Tour Skirt (1.7 Deck): This performance breathable skirt is constructed of waterproof/breathable fabric for the ultimate in comfort. All seams are sealed to further increase the waterproofing. Rim grip/safety slip technology keeps your skirt firmly in place while paddling, yet releases easily for exiting the boat. The adjustable stretch-nylon waist closure with removable suspenders fits virtually all paddlers, and the tensioned deck stay keeps the skirt taut. Ballistic nylon edging guards the skirt from paddling inflicted wear and tear. A mesh deck pocket keeps essentials close at hand.

The Looksha 17 is a very comfortable, stable, and I have to disagree with the previous comment, fast boat. I’m an adventure racer and have to train in multiple sports. I found the Looksha 17 to be the type of boat that I can jump into and feel very secure, even in 6 ft swells. I’m 6’ 4” and 225 lbs. and I really love the room in the cockpit. And this boat is fast! I was told that as a racer I should buy a fiberglass boat but those things are so expensive. This boat is a great deal and very durable. I would recommend this boat to anyone that needs a good open water kayak to go fast.

The Looksha 17 is very stable (as stable as my Tsunami 145). The cockpit fits very nicely and it is great for a nice relaxing paddle. I found it to be a slow paddle though. It took a lot of work to get it up to speed, and then it dropped speed very quickly once I stopped. Maybe I am down on the speed because I am comparing it to the Elaho HV, which is very fast and paddles almost effortlessly. The other thing I don't like about it is that it sits high out of the water and wind cocks with the slightest breeze. Using the rudder is almost a must with any wind. Secondary stability appears to be good, but it is a dog when it comes to turning. The flip side is that my wife loves it. She is a slower, see the sights kind of paddler and it fits her perfect also. Also, it seems to be a very high quality build, though a bit heavy at 65 lbs. It is a good kayak for the price we paid and we would have had to jump a few hundred more dollars to look at anything else comparable like a Tempest, so we are content with it.

I just paddled through a storm in my new Looksha 17. The conditions at this time were lower than 15 -20 knots wind in the Saguenay Fjord, which translates into choppy water with 12 - 18" waves. I always feel secure and very comfortable, thanks to their new seat and super initial stability. Secondary seems to be as good. I'm in a hurry to try it in open sea for surfing.
