Viviane Expedition
The Viviane is long and fast -- designed for advance paddlers who demand the most from a kayak in all conditions. It features a lower, rounder deck to minimize wind and wave force in rough conditions. The Avalon Viviane has proven itself in waters all over the earth--from the arctic to the tropics. Winner of numerous races including the marathon Arctic Sea Kayaking Race, held annually off the coast of Norway.
The Viviane is an ideal kayak for midsized and large paddlers with intermediate or advanced experience for long-distance expeditions. The cockpit opening is our most spacious one, so even tall paddlers can enter easily. The Viviane exp is equipped with KS-retractable plastic skeg.
Sea Kayaker: "Viviane tracked steadily through any conditions and it provides a dry ride. This kayak is fast enough to catch wind waves and boat wakes. Kayakers who have the power will find this a fast boat. During a one hour workout, I averaged over 5 knots. Viviane has lots of stowage space and easy loading through the hatches. I'd have no problem packing for a month trip."
