The Napali is supported by a high-tech, durable and corrosion-resistant
internal Carbon Kevlar frame system that comes equipped with a transparent
military-grade Urethane skin, keeping the weight at a minimum. The
leading-edge innovation allows the kayak to fold up small enough to fit into a
hiking backpack, yet still offer the endless possibilities for discovery that
transparent kayaks give. This makes the Napali the ideal kayak for
long-distance touring, backcountry kayaking and vacational travels that
require easy transport.
One may think that the high functionality and light weight of the boat
were built at the expense of design. However, when you look at the Napali,
you’ll soon forget the meaning of the word “compromise”. The Napali even
offers extraordinary visual appeal with a dazzling look and graceful, elegant
presence that is unparalleled in the world of kayaking. The sleek lines and
soft curves of its streamlined body radiate pure dynamic energy, even when the
Napali is only hanging on its rack, motionless. Outstanding quality and
craftsmanship can be seen and felt in every detail of the Napali’s
construction.
What has been accomplished in the engineering of the Napali is a new,
fully versatile breed of kayak that is exceptional from any perspective.
Clarity is its core, intelligent design its gift. It is not without a cause
that the Museum of Modern Art in NYC decided to feature the Napali as a
permanent piece of exhibition starting in Fall 2004.
