Introducing the new SENTOM tandem kayak! This safe and comfortable boat is the culmination of performance.
The first requirement for a two-person boat is a sufficient load capacity, but the increased load must not result in a decline in stability or maneuverability. To achieve this, the boat has a flared side design that creates a waterline width that corresponds to changes in the load, significantly improving its running performance when light, and its secondary stability in rough weather or when loaded.
The boat is equipped with an optimal rocker balance that creates straight-line stability, and a rudder with sufficient area and length to be effective even in rough seas.The cockpit is also spaced far apart, allowing for comfortable rowing without the paddles of the front and rear rowers hitting each other.
And above all, the hull is made of epoxy resin, which provides strength without worry even when loaded. The strength and rigidity are achieved through a calculated thickness distribution, with not all parts being made uniform. This safe and comfortable boat is the culmination of the performance required for a multi-person boat.
This boat can be used safely for a wide range of purposes, from medium to long distance touring to family use.
Centum's original rudder has been repeatedly improved with the aim of minimizing breakdowns. The answer we finally arrived at after repeated trial and error is this rudder's stern main system.
Above all, it is a durable rudder that is hard to break. It has a unique loop wire system with no joints in the moving parts, centered around a 12mm center bolt, and the rigid rudder blade is made of high-strength resin, so it will not break, bend, or corrode.
Once the kayak is floating in the sea, pulling the handle will secure the seat to the cleat and lower the rudder securely.
It ensures the safety of heavily loaded two-person boats and can be used with peace of mind for many years.
It is versatile enough for family use, whether it's for fast touring or camping trips, and its stability and maneuverability make it appealing, even for two large people.
