We use a special, innovative material to thermo-form Hurricane Kayaks. It’s called Trylon, and if you haven’t heard of it or haven’t paddled it, your life is somewhat incomplete. Trylon has a laundry list of advantages over polyethylene, roto-molded kayaks. Here’re just a few:
Trylon is lightweight. In fact, our boats weigh an average of 10 pounds less than comparable boats. Think about it…you won’t get a hernia strapping boats on the racks. And if you’re a female paddler, you don’t need steroids just to get your boat to the water.Trylon is rigid. Hurricane Kayaks - Recreational, sport, open, fishing kayaks have very little flex, which translates into good news when you’re on the water. Think efficiency.
Trylon is gorgeous. Our hulls sport a beautiful, high-luster appearance you’d swear was composite. But unlike composite, Trylon hulls won’t fade or turn brittle in the sun. Like we said, gorgeous.
Tylon resists warping. Our hulls retain their shape forever without oil canning. If a polyethylene manufacturer makes that claim, he’s been in the sun too long.
Trylon reduces friction. More glide. Less drag. Equals more fun. End of story.
Trylon requires little maintenance. A Hurricane hull is easy to keep looking good and paddling hard. And if you need to make repairs, Trylon is easy to fix. We’d rather you spend time on the water than time in the shop.
