Designed and developed by Rob Feloy. The Inuk brings together his experience of designing and building winning off-shore racing yachts and his love of kayaking. This fast easily driven kayak started winning sea marathons in its prototype stages and the production Inuks are now dominant in sea races around the world.
The Inuk has an impressive load carrying capacity and has superb ability to handle big seas. Its performance and responsiveness makes it an ideal light touring boat for the experienced paddler who appreciates its handling and the wonderful return for effort that you get from the best machines.
Sean Morley, the first paddler to circumnavigate Britain and Ireland, has paddled the Inuk extensively, including in the Preseli Challenge in 1998. He says of the Inuk that it is "a remarkable craft. Its classic looks belie its speed through the water. It takes everything in its stride and aims to please."
