Is strength compromised in such an exceptionally light kayak?
Not at all. FirstLight kayaks use composite tubes for the longitudinal members. The FirstLight 420 C kayak uses carbon/Kevlar/fibreglass tubes which offer maximum hull stiffness with minimum weight. The Kevlar fibres are laid at a 45 degree angle across the tube and offer immense strength to the tubular wall. The carbon fibres are laid linearly down the tube and provide longitudinal stiffness. The injection moulded frame components manufactured from Dupont s Zytel ST801 are virtually indestructible!
