Zegul 2012 Catalogue

INNOVATION THAT EMPOWERS YOU!

In the 1700’s, Russian sailors sailing the Aleutian Islands gave this uniquely-shaped kayak the name„Baidarka” meaning „small boat”. The lower portion of its upswept bow is extremely narrow, allowing for clean entry lines, while the upper bow is fuller and wider, increasing buoyancy, causing the Baidarka to rise over the oncoming waves. Baidarkas are known for their unusually fast speed. With their Swede form shape and high volume stern they produce an incredibly high hull speed.

Our Baidarka is designed for the paddler who desires a unique looking boat with performance, light weight and beauty.

The Baidarka GT introduced for 2012 season is designed keeping touring in mind for day/weekend trips or even a smaller expedition. The specially designed narrow hull provides you with incredible speed, what was one of the original ideas of these extremely different kayak designs – getting fast from A to B whilst enjoying the ride! The best performance of this kayak will appear while paddling downwind and in calm waters.

Sea paddling in Australia is a rich and diverse activity, with thousands of kilometres of unbroken coastline to explore & weather ranging from the sapping humidity of the high tropics to the Antarctic chill of the Southern Ocean.

Unlike many places in the world where paddling is a popular & grow-ing pastime, we have relatively few inland waterways, so sea kayaks in particular do tend to be paddled either on the sea, or in the estuarine waterways fringing the coast.

This exposed coastline means that Australian paddlers must prepare for the rigours of the surf zone, and often makes paddling on the ocean an exercise in finding landings in between long stretches of unland-able cliff or beach. The expedition has historically been the primary focus of most sea kayakers, with wilderness often only an hour’s paddle away from even the largest cities. The climate also dictates that large loads are required, usually in-volving water for multi-day trips, and self sufficiency in food & shelter.

Our paddling has evolved around this long touring ethos, and we’ve only recently seen a distinct focus change towards the more playful,

day tripping aspect of the sport. More manoeuvrable designs have made their way to our shores from overseas and over time, kayakers skills are beginning to adapt to these more sporty boats, as we’re starting to realise just how much fun you can have, especially in rough water, in a sea kayak designed to handle it.

My own perspective as an instructor working mostly on the beaches and along the cliffs just beyond the magnificent Sydney Harbour has been to promote this recent drive for skills with paddlers actively seek-ing out challenging conditions and learning to thrive in more technically demanding water rather than just surviving or avoiding it.

As a paddler with more than 20 years experience & expedition mileage covering most of Australia’s East Coast, it’s heartening to see people realising the benefits in pursing a learning path that takes in the whole breadth of sea kayak-ing from Greenland rolling to surf, rock gardens, racing or maybe even working towards one of the iconic Aussie expeditions like Bass Strait or Cape York.

Rob Mercer, New designer since 2012

The Zegul Velocity is a new boat introduced for 2012, by our new designer on board – Rob Mercer, Australia. The boat is designed to be sporty and fast with increased stability when compared with other boats in its class, it also has good sea manners, a generous carrying capacity and the ability to really go fast in a following sea, this is what defi nes this boat against conventional fast tourers. In other words the Zegul Velocity is focused on paddlers who want to cover miles in rough water with the option to carry gear for a long haul, do a workout paddle with the boat empty and yet still manage surf and maneuver effectively.

A fast work out boat, with that extra stability for all of us that do not have the racing background. Also a great choice for beginners or clubs. You can use what ever kind of paddle, if it is an euro-style or a wing. The kayak has one rear hatch, which can be used for gear to go for a shorter trip. The kayak is equipped with a round shape hull and front deck cutaways for a closer, more efficient stroke.

Zegul Rhapsody

ZEGUL A-COREThis very versatile construction is built using vacuum technology, which ensures the best weight/strength ratio. This material lay-up increases durability and stiffness of the kayak, absorbing even less energy during paddling and withstanding the most challenging environments.

All ZEGUL A-CORE built kayaks are equipped with sandwich reinforced keel area - ensuring scratch and impact strength. Hull and deck are joined using internally both fiberglass and aramide taping, externally a very robust aramide taping. All decks are built in sandwich construction. (Available for all Zegul kayak models)

Constructions

ZEGUL A-CORE CONSTRUCTION:

ZEGUL 3D C-CORE CONSTRUCTIONKayaks built with this method are finished with a clear carbon hull,which takes years of experience to be done correctly From 2012 sea-son we have launched a new 3 dimensional carbon fabric into this construction, giving even tougher and stiffer kayaks. This production method combines vacuum infusion technology with high performance properties of special marine grade epoxy resin and several types of carbon fiber, carbon/aramide and glass multiaxial fabrics to create probably the highest quality carbon core built kayaks in the indus-try. These kayaks are even more versatile than the regular carbon/aramide and carbon built kayaks on the market. The ZEGUL 3D C-CORE kayaks are built using full HD LRA core lay-up in the kayak hulls. Decks are built out of sandwich construction reinforced with carbon/aramide technology.

ZEGUL THERMO-FORMED ABS-HYBRID This very robust construction is built using thermoforming technology combined with ultra new ABS-HYBRID carbon/aramide technology in-troduced by Zegul for 2011 season. This construction provides good properties of thermoformed ABS material in hull giving kayak a higher impact resistancy. The reinforcement of fiberglass strand mats, woven fabrics and carbon/aramide technology make it a robust, stiff and per-formance orientated product. Hull and deck are joined using internally both fiberglass and aramide taping, externally a very robust aramide taping. All deck are built in sandwich construction.(Only available for Zegul 550 model)
