Tempest 165: The Tempest is the most capable sea kayak Wilderness Systems has ever built. From its ultra-comfortable cockpit to a well-mannered hull design that behaves itself in conditions calm or chaotic, this boat lets you spend your time refining your skills and having more fun instead of fighting to stay upright or on course. Phase3 expedition outfitting allows you to set up your seat to precisely fit your body type. The sculptured high-density foam seat encourages air circulation and the precise-position settings relieve thigh and back fatigue, delivering unprecedented control and comfort. A friction-adjustment system permits settings anywhere within the range of motion for that adjustment. Best of all, you'll never have to land and exit your boat to adjust your settings; all controls are right at your fingertips. The drop skeg offers tracking assistance, and can be adjusted up and down to match wind and current conditions. Scaled slightly smaller, with a 13" depth, the Tempest 165 is perfect for paddlers with smaller frames wanting big time performance. You'll go places you've never been in the most well-mannered sea kayak you can buy. Note: Each multicolor boat is unique, and color patterns vary boat to boat.
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 (1.4 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.

I love this boat. I bought it nearly a year ago. Had never paddled one before, but did a lot of research. Woman's intuition. I paddle it on local lakes, rivers and offshore in all conditions around the NC coastline. Most times it's packed to the gunwales with camping gear, food etc. I'm 5'8 and 125lbs and probably need to add a bit more packing around the thighs to keep me in when fooling around upside down. Here are the good (non-technical) points: 1. excellent rolling; 2. GREAT in surf and other dodgy conditions; 3. easy access skeg, though hardly need to use it; 4. Can sit in the seat all day (paddling) and still hold a glass of vino as the sun goes down; 5. even as a wee lass can carry the darn thing and atop my 4Runner; 6. just feels 'right'. And (non-technically) why it's not a '10': 1. can't pack as much gear as other boats of similar size or 6" longer - but also means I pack lean (and drink less); 2. the rear bigger hatch leaks in surf and when rolling, no matter if it's a new hatch or not and I jump up and down on the darn thing. More than happy to recommend this boat.
