Barracuda from Prijon is made of High Performance Thermoplast (HTP) Polyethylene. The material is strong as cold and warm, and does not loose its shape as some other plastic boats do in the sunlight when at rest on storage. This boat is fast, has watertight compartments that must be closed with their rubbersuspended neoprene lids when at sea. Steering with the rudder happens with adjustable foot braces/pedals. Seats, backrests and kneebraces are padded for comfort on longer stays on the water. It responds to steering manouvers while the long keel line gives it more tracking it is not the kayak of choice if you intend to demonstrate techincal manouvers. An intermediate paddler would travel faster in this kayak than in most other sea kayaks. Loaded it has a good initial and secondary stability.
