P&H Valkyrie Corelite X Sea Kayak
For those who want to go far and get their fast! The 17ft 8in Valkrie is a fast sea kayak designed for speed and is a great choice for those looking to put in the miles quickly on big open water crossings and challenging circumnavigations, or just for those who want to blast around out on the coast and run along with ocean swells!
The long sleek fore-hull of the Valkrie has steep vertical sides with a fine wave-piercing bow to maximise efficiency through the water, with minimal resistance as it propels it's way forwards with each paddle stroke. Combined with a slender low-profile stern deck for clean laminar water flow off the stern for minimal drag, you have a kayak hull that screams speed and energy-saving efficiency! The fore-deck features paddle cutaways allowing you to put in powerful high-angle paddle strokes for the best acceleration and maintained high speeds. The mid-hull has a more square cross-profile offering good initial stability, which is only improved as you pick up the speed. Constructed using Corelite X, an advanced triple-layer polyethylene for enhanced performance, durability and hull stiffness - the Valkrie is about as fast as you'll get in a plastic sea kayak!
Featuring a footrest-controlled rudder system for fine directional control as you power along. Whilst primarily designed for those looking to paddle far and fast, the Valkrie has enough features to make this a handy fast sea kayak for the occasional expedition too, with 3 hatches offering storage space for a lightweight overnight kit. The hatches feature durable rubber KajakSport hatch covers. The hatches features foam bulkheads sealing off the storage areas and providing inherent buoyancy within the hull. You'll find secure storage for a spare split paddle up on the bow, with a recess to accomodate a Silva 70p compass. The bow and stern decks feature deck lines and bungees and the Valkyrie also has fitting points for the mast foot of the P&H Sail Systems (available seperately).
A top choice for open water distance paddling and long circumnaviagtions, and a great option for those not wanting to go to a composite fast sea kayak (FSK) but still relish speed!

CoreLite X - Polyethylene Construction
2 to 3kg Lighter | Increased Hull Stiffness
* Compared to previous CoreLite construction
Introducing CoreLite X, the very latest in advanced roto-moulded kayak construction, from P&H Sea Kayaks. Combining exclusively developed and sourced materials, with industry leading precision machinery, and over 25 years of expertise, P&H have produced CoreLite X. An advanced triple layer (sandwich layer) construction that delivers an exceptional hull stiffness-to-weight ratio.
Compared to the previous CoreLite construction, CoreLite X (CLX) is on average 2 to 3kgs lighter, improving the boats ease of handling, both on and off the water. The increased hull stiffness greatly improves on-water performance, narrowing the gap between poleythlene and full composite sea kayaks.
The CoreLite X construction in a P&H Sea Kayak is a great option for both novice paddlers, and experience sea paddlers, venturing out in more challenging conditions.
