The Greenlander Pro is a hard-chined, fish-form design that tracks extremely well and is great in a following sea. It has excellent secondary stability and is able to carry a decent load for multi-day trips.
NDK description: "The fastest kayak in our fleet. This expedition kayak is ideally suited for the medium sized paddler and the low volume helps the lighter kayaker control the kayak in windy conditions.
The kayak has a low rear deck for easy rolling, a keyhole cockpit that gives excellent grip, control and allows quick exit if need be. The sloping bulkhead behind the seat, allows the kayak to be emptied by lifting only the bow, no x-rescue is necessary.
