New very exciting reviews, by Matthew Koerber,  Phil Newman (Sept 23rd, 07) and other excited owners

and a review by former VSKC president Peter Treby .

The Sea Leopard is the most stable Kayak I have ever paddled and this is backed up by instructors, and has a very high volume storage area compared to other kayaks, yet it is decieving as it doesnt appear so when first looking at it, a capacity now of more than 220 ltrs.

If you are looking for expedition kayaks au look no furthur.
