CKUK Kayak Awards 2011
Perception Kayaks are excited to share that not just one, but three models from our range have recently won awards from CKUK's 2011 Kayak Awards. The popular UK Canoe & Kayak magazine announced the results last week. The Perception Expression won 1st place as the 'Best Touring Kayak of the Year', while our kids touring kayak and new tandem tourer were both 'Highly Commended'.
Perception Expression - Touring Kayak of the Year
Launched back at the end of 2010, the Perception Expression range is already proving to be at the top of its market. Available in two sizes the Expression is ideal for the adventure-seeker who wants the best of both touring and sea kayaks: a fun, manoeuvrable day-kayak that remains stable and predictable when loaded down with gear. We're really thrilled that CKUK see the wide appeal and performance the Expression range has and thank them for ranking it as 'The Best Touring Kayak of the Year'.

Perception Prodigy II 14.5 - Highly Commended Recreational Kayak
New to the Perception line-up at Easter, the Prodigy II 14.5 tandem is already making a name for itself as a recreational tandem with unmatched comfort and a high level of outfitting and detail. Its rocker profile focuses on speed, tracking and minimised noise when paddling through flat water and light currents. Whether paddling solo or tandem, with pets, kids or adults, this kayak can be configured perfectly for any outing. As the only tandem kayak to get a mention in CKUK's Kayak Awards, the Prodigy II 14.5 is set to lead the way in recreational kayaks. To find out more go to the Prodigy II product page.
Perception Carolina 12xs - Highly Commended Kids Kayak
With few child specific kayaks out there to choose from, our kids Carolina 12xs has been highly commended by CKUK for being designed for touring rather than white water. Offering directional stability, speed and the ability to keep up with others and set a good pace on river trips!
