Description
Nuka GT
The Nuka GT is a speed optimized touring kayak that has a very practical deck line layout. The rear hatch is oval making it easy to load the kayak on overnight trips. The GT has less rocker and more raking bow and stern which increases the water-line when loaded. The Nuka GT can be easily fitted with a rudder for those who prefer to focus forward momentum rather than the correction strokes and edging.
The Nuka GT has a speed optimized hull and soft chine’s, the hull is rounded for less resistance and less wet surface making the Nuka GT glide effortlessly through the water.
The Nuka GT comes in A-core lay-up and is equipped with a retractable skeg.
