Overview

Pygmy's bestselling touring kayak. The Murrelet is a 17-foot multi-chine hull made for those who like a high-performance kayak. At 22 inches wide it is svelte and fast, but retains very comfortable initial stability. Its low rear cockpit height is designed for easy Greenland rolling and re-entry. Customize your kit by choosing from two decks, two cockpits and two hulls. The first hull version tracks strongly while the second hull version is Pygmy's most maneuverable touring kayak.
