Quest 442 ABS Superlite - 4.42m Single Sit-In Touring Kayak

The Quest 442 Superlite is the perfect kayak for small paddlers with its narrow beam, low deck height, and light carry weight. The ABS plastic using Cross-Lite construction creates a super light kayak (just 23 kgs) that is easy transport and carrying for paddlers who are small to mid-sized. 

The Quest 442 Superlite ticks all the boxes including durability and comfort that's flexible for you. The premium comfort seat provides you with excellent support for all-day paddling and is adjustable (forward and back) so you can find your perfect seating position. 

ABS thermoformed plastic kayaks are better than regular polyethylene as the acrylic surface of a thermoformed kayak is harder and more scratch-resistant than polyethylene. These type of kayaks are typically 20-30% lighter than regular polyethylene kayaks.
