There is a shop in the O'connor industrial area that used to sell them and they always had factory seconds advertised out the front. I never stopped in to see how much they were though.
At Ocean Kayak, they didn't invent the original sit-on-top kayak. They just perfected it. Innovation has been there mission since they launched the first sit-on-top in 1971.
Here are just a few of Ocean Kayak's innovation examples:
Roto-molded sit on top kayaks — Ocean Kayak was one of the first brands to start manufacturing and selling rotationally molded sit-on-top kayaks.
Our Malibu Two is the world's most popular sit-on-top. Why? They have a patented overlapping foot wells that allow one, two and even three people (a smaller person in the middle) to fit comfortably in a compact tandem.
The Venus line offers the first sit on tops that were specifically designed for women.
Stackable hulls — several of our models were designed to be stacked. This allows for easier storage.
The tri-hull design enhances stability as the boat eases through the water. The long center keel area encourages boats to track straight when paddling and coasting. The wider "shoulder" areas of the hull ride high at the surface of the water without compromising speed under moderate paddling conditions. These areas provide signifigant secondary stability, and result in a very user friendly kayak design. In addition, Ocean Kayak hulls derive their stiffness from compound curves rather than sharp lines. These curves have fewer stress points, which makes them less likely to crack than other kayak designs, even under impact.
As a result of 35 years of effort, today's sit-on-tops are safer, more durable and much more enjoyable. No need to say thanks, though. Just get out there and have fun.
Careful though, paddling is addictive. It is not unusual for people to own several kayaks and paddles for different activities once they've caught the bug.
Theres a little kayak factory on Gympie Way in willetton. the bloke who runs it is a bit crazy but he makes a good kayak for $600 a mate got one with everything you need. It is faster and more stable then my Finn Gizmo witch i paid almost a $1000 for. For a $100 deposit he'll let you borrow one for the weekend for free. members.iinet.net.au/~snik/escape/Escape_Kayaks/IMAG0009.GIF
