Trylon is very lightweight with this boat weighing in at only just over 21 kg! Its used condition is unusually good with an extremely clean bottom showing only a few light scratches.

To put it simply, an ABS kayak will give you all the durability of a plastic kayak AND the lightweight, superior performance qualities of a composite.
The boat features a rudder for easy steering, dual hatches, adjustable seat, adjustable foot braces and bow and stern grab handles. Rudders These rudders are designed to be pulled out of the water or dropped into it at the pull of a cord. For beginners, rudders help you paddle straight, not turn. For more advanced kayakers, If you're going at a 45 degree upwind or upcurrent, you'll have to paddle lighter on one side. With a rudder, you can go full power stroke on both sides while compensating for direction.
