DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
The design philosophy ARK adopted was to encompass performance, comfort, ruggedness and easy portage into the prawn solo adventurer. ARK has designed the prawn to put a maximum amount of tube where it is needed at the rear where the paddler sits, whilst using narrower tubes along the sides for easy paddling and
manoeuvrability.
Smaller and simpler in design than most Inflatable canoes, the Prawn is the next level in lightweight boats.
Paddled like a kayak the Prawn can be controlled with ease and paddling straight is aided by the innovative sting in the tail which drags a small skeg for directional tracking.
The Prawn sports an inflatable floor and snug fitting tubes, providing you with hours of comfortable paddling, angling and exploring.
