Necky Boat- Lendal Paddle Demo Day

Necky Boat- Lendal Paddle Demo Day

Please join us on the beach with Necky boat designer, Spike and Nick Dyslin, Lendal/Kokatat rep. They will be walking us through boat design basics. This is a great way for a beginner to get started. They will come with boats, paddles and pfd’s! You can try out boats and get an understanding what the difference is between low/high volume boats, hard/soft chines and the myriad of other details that can be overwhelming when you are getting started. Nick will have a full set of demo paddles and will discuss paddle design and innovations. Along with traditional blades, Nick will even have Lendal’s new Kinetic Wing for people to try out!

See their websites for detailed info: and
