Gone are the days of dingy little kayaks…well at least for the rich. This yacht-like kayak, the McLellan Jacobs Kayak 1, boasts a 13 foot, full carbon fiber body.
Crafted by America’s Cup boat builders in New Zealand, the Kayak 1 also has gold plated brass fittings, and solid teak and ash detailing. Combined with it’s glossy carbon fiber body, the kayak still weighs in under 40 pounds, depending on its customization.
The Kayak 1 is a really awesome mix between traditional kayaks and contemporary materials and its the company’s first ever product. Quite the first impression if you ask me.
There is no official word on pricing on the company website, but inquiries for info price and customization options, you can email the company directly at [email protected].
