We have prioritized straight tracking and given our kayaks responsive performance like larger kayaks. They are appropriate for use in lakes, quiet rivers and protected ocean bays. The Walden Experience has all of the features of the Walden Naturalist PLUS Standard deck rigging in a traditional box and cross pattern on the forward deck. The Walden Vista's 12.5 foot length and 41 lb weight are the most compact among kayaks in its performance category. The footbraces are fully adjustable on each side.
Deck rigging is standard front and rear with molded-in shockcord padeyes.
A rear hatch and bulkhead can be installed when you're ready. The colors are Green, Yellow and Red. A rear hatch to provide easy access to your gear. The hatch has a tight-seal gasket and is secured by release buckles, and tethered so you won't lose it on the water. The Walden Spirit's 14 foot hull and 85 inch long cockpit make it roomy enough for family and fishing.
