Description:
The Prijon Yukon Expedition is the all-terrain vehicle of kayaks,
legendary for its versatility, and is the boat of choice for a
multi-day river adventure. Shorter and wider than most expedition
kayaks, the supremely stable and agile Yukon is ideal for river
touring, but performs more than respectably on lakes or oceans. Carve,
turn, and track with this versatile trihedral hull. Its features
include raised decks for more volume, sleek expedition lines, and
whitewater capabilities (rated for class IV). The flush-to-the-deck
hatches eliminate water & wind resistance and the possibility of
snags. Fixed internal foam bulkhead further enhance stability. The bow
& stern hatches, made with neoprene, hard plastic, and quick-release
webbing straps, hold all kinds of gear. Sit back and relax the roomy
cockpit. The only no-compromise, go-anywhere expedition kayak
available.
