Hurricane kayaks are made of Trylon ABS Plastic. Trylon is rigid, so Hurricanes paddle like composite kayaks at a fraction of the cost. Trylon does not warp or oil can like polyethylene, and it includes an exterior acrylic cap to help protect your kayak from UV radiation. That same acrylic cap makes your Hurricane shine and you smile. Most importantly, Trylon ABS kayaks weight 10-15 lbs lighter than comparable polyethylene boats.

I've had this boat for three seasons now, the Hurricane Skimmer 116 with the regular seat. Still as shiny as the day it came home. Very lightweight and easy to handle. Paddles nicely and has great glide. The seat back contours to your back and is a breathable mesh. To take advantage of those features get a life jacket without a slab of foam on the back. Some newer jackets are backless or have the foam up around the neck.
