The Petrel is here.
In the USA.
Europe's largest paddlesports trade show — Strasbourg, France — named the Petrel Product of the Year in the recreational paddling category. It beat every kayak, canoe, and SUP in the room.
The first US boats have landed in California. Tell us where you paddle and we'll confirm shipping to your zip and hold one while you decide.

Why it won
The judges put the Petrel against every recreational paddlecraft on the European market. What set it apart: nothing else delivers surfski speed in a sit-on-top this stable, and nothing else comes close at the price.
- 16'0" length with surfski-inspired hull and piercing bow
- Centered footwell + extended paddle cutaways for an efficient stroke
- Generous bow volume; large oval front hatch + recessed stern hatch
- 6 handles (bow, stern, 2 per side) for solo handling and re-entry
- Soft rails for confident edge-control steering
- Rod-holder interfaces, so it fishes too

Who it's for
The experienced paddler who refuses to choose between speed and stability.
Multiday expeditions. Fitness training. Fishing. Or just the fastest way to cover open water with the gear you actually need. The Petrel is the boat for the paddler who's outgrown the rec-kayak category but isn't ready to fight a tippy surfski.
