Identical to the original Distance but with a slightly higher front deck for more leg and foot space. The cockpit rim has more angle for easier entry and exiting of the kayak. A day hatch has been added in front of the cockpit rim as well for storage of small items like camera’s, telephone’s, snacks etc. The Distance MKII is an even better kayak for tall and/or heavier paddlers then the original Distance, and is like all our kayaks standard equipped with the Kajak-Sport skeg system. Traditional lay up (TR) Polyester/Diolen and fiber glass.
TR is like the classic Skim yet with more reinforcement and therefore more rigid.
The Distance MkII is prepared for use with a rudder, yet the rudder is an option.
