A nomadic trekking canoe for two, the Vagabond can be paddled tandem or solo with single-bladed canoe or double-bladed kayak paddle. A practical touring boat, the Vagabond will easily carry enough gear for multi-day adventures. Extra width provides extra stability in whitewater (a spraydeck is available as an option). Its low profile minimizes the influence of troublesome crosswinds. At 38 lb. the Vagabond is a super-light tandem boat which packs compactly in its drybag/backpack for a hassle-free travel and storage for globe-trotting adventure seekers. What is Nitrylon™ fabric, and how is it different from PVC? Nitrylon™ is a lamination of nitrile synthetic rubber and natural rubber over a 1,200-denier, low stretch polyester fabric. Nitrylon™ is very puncture and abrasion resistant. It is considerably stronger, easier to patch, performs better in cold weather, and is much more abrasion resistant than PVC. Some of our models, the K1, K2, and Seakers, use polyester reinforced PVC (Mirasol ™) for the side chambers. Mirasol™ has better structural stiffness for long tubes than Nitrylon™.
