The result is a high-performance touring kayak for medium to larger paddlers that handles everything: day trips, multi-day expeditions, rough water, and the kind of varied coastal paddling that doesn't fit neatly into one category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"ko-p\"\u003eThe hull gives high forward speed through a long waterline relative to overall length. The flatter centre section and chined hull keeps it manoeuvrable in confined spaces and tight turns, while the buoyant bow maintains a dry ride through chop and lifts cleanly over steep waves. The stern volume allows the Eto to accelerate onto waves without burying the nose — it surfs well, catches easily, and stays forgiving when riding. The fullness of the centre section gives confident, predictable edging with high secondary stability, and as the boat leans the stern progressively lifts, making turns smoother and faster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"ko-p\"\u003eThe cockpit is keyhole-shaped with integrated thigh braces, a snug fit that delivers precise feedback without being restrictive. Rockpool's adjustable plate footrest and GRP seat shell — both moveable in 10 mm increments — allow the outfitting to be dialled in accurately for your build. The front day hatch gives useful on-water access without affecting hull behaviour. Recessed deck fittings throughout, including dedicated split-paddle carriers fore and aft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"ko-p\"\u003eIf you want a versatile, fast, all-conditions sea kayak that doesn't require you to specialise, this is probably the most complete boat Rockpool makes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ko-rule\"\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ko-rule-label\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ko-table-outer\"\u003e\n    \u003ctable class=\"ko-table\"\u003e\n      \u003cthead\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n          \u003cth\u003eLength\u003c\/th\u003e\n          \u003cth\u003eBeam\u003c\/th\u003e\n          \u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n          \u003cth\u003ePaddler\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003c\/thead\u003e\n      \u003ctbody\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n          \u003ctd\u003e515 cm \/ 16'10.5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n          \u003ctd\u003e55 cm \/ 21.5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n          \u003ctd\u003e335 L\u003c\/td\u003e\n          \u003ctd\u003eMedium–large · ~70–100 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n    \u003c\/table\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"ko-rule\"\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ko-rule-label\"\u003eConstruction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"ko-p\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e — Time-proven hand-laid construction using polyester resin, chopped strand and woven fibreglass.
