A very user friendly kayak with near limitless potential, the Vision 135 is a fun little boat with a reasonable price tag.

    The Vision 135 roto offers the same great qualities, details, and outfitting of all our Vision models, in a short and manageable rotomolded kayak. Small to medium-sized paddlers will find this a great little daytripper on calm/intermediate waters. 

    This kayak features the Revolution Seating System (rotating axis controlled by a lever-lock system to adjust the angle of seat bottom) and the Dimension Adjustable Seat Back (a fully articulating and height/angle adjustable back rest). The Vision 135 is designed with thigh braces, a bow hatch/bulkhead and a stern hatch/bulkhead. This Vision includes the optional rudder to increase tracking and maneuverability, as well as an installed Ritchie® compass for navigation.

    The Vision 135 is a transitional kayak, meaning it is stable enough for beginners and encourages development. These kayaks bridge the gap between recreational and touring kayaks -- the perfect step for paddlers looking to transition from a recreational kayak or seasoned paddlers looking for a day tripping kayak.

Swede Form: Widest behind the cockpit, Swede form has a cleaner, longer, and more slender entry, giving efficient touring speeds and maneuverability. In shorter lengths these kayaks are very responsive. Longer kayaks with this feature have amazing acceleration and track well. Because of the narrow bow they may punch through a steep wave, rather than ride over it.

Soft Chine: A smooth transition from the bottom of the hull to the sides. Soft chines give smooth edging at unlimited angles. The majority of kayaks that we build have a soft chine.

Shallow V: The “V” shape improves tracking, has a lively feel and delivers very comfortable stability.

Keyhole Cockpit: A keyhole cockpit blends the openness of a recreational cockpit and the integrated thigh braces of a touring cockpit. The result is an easy to enter and exit cockpit that offers performance, fit, and solid connectivity to the kayak.
