SunFin Kayaks Launches New Recreational Sit-On-Top Kayak - Designed by MIT engineers, SunFin"s Cadenza, is made in the USA for beginners and intermediate recreational kayakers


- MIAMI, FL, July 07, 2006 - SunFin Kayaks has introduced its first recreational sit-on-top (SOT): the Cadenza. Designed by MIT engineers, the SunFin Cadenza is a 9" 8" SOT kayak with a modified Swede Form that provides a very stable platform suitable for beginners, while allowing performance capabilities for both intermediate as well as advanced paddlers.
Designed and built in the USA, this sit-on-top kayak uses the finest materials and top-of-the-line, marine grade accessories, and includes as "standard equipment" what many builders charge extra as "options".
"As experienced seafarers, we wanted to build a kayak that would bring quality, value and dependability to the growing number of kayak users", says Carlos Soto, President of Miami-based SunFin Kayaks. He adds, "Although a kayak is sometimes thought of as a "toy" - something for fun and games - our boats incorporate advanced marine engineering into their design and construction, providing dependable enjoyment at an affordable price". For example, only virgin High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Resin is used in order to achieve the ideal balance of rigidity with a weight light enough for anyone to handle, even petite women (see http://www.SunFinKayaks.com ). Other features include:
- Ample dry storage through a yacht-quality, flush mounted hatch;
- Deck hardware installation using 304 Stainless Steel marine-grade bolts, instead of the rivets commonly used;
- A custom thermal molded foam Seat from the premier US kayak seat manufacturer;
- Aft storage well to accommodate a full size SCUBA tank and accessories.
"It"s the sexiest, coolest kayak we have ever built", states Roger Hanson, engineer at Lakeland Mold Company in Brainerd, MN, where the plug was made. In addition, users say that with its streamlined, attractive look and more efficient hull design, SunFin"s Cadenza is faster and requires less effort to paddle than other recreational kayaks, while also praising its multiple uses, including touring, fishing, scuba diving as well as exercise, among others.
SunFin Kayaks are sold direct to consumers on the Internet. For more information, visit http://www.SunFinKayaks.com .
