Are long narrow boats faster?
Don’t be misled by claims of speed. They are usually based on flat water boats in very calm water doing short sprints. If your only objective is to go as fast as possible on flat water, and you wish to part your hair in the middle for balance, then a long narrow boat is for you (you may want to consider the Ocean Kayak Scupper Pro TW). However, we also feel it is important to make boats which are safe and perform well in a variety of conditions. By sacrificing a very slight amount of speed on flat water, we are able to offer boats which are not inhibited by rough seas.
