Is the rugged 12’0'' Endurance displacement touring board build for off the grid adventures. Everything about the board was carefully considered to lend itself as a day or multi-day touring stand up paddle board. Working with people who already do tours on SUPs we’re happy to say that we think that this board will both meet their expectations for having a utilitarian board that is both rugged and easy to gear up.
The hull of the board is protected with Ricochet so that it can withstand contact with rocks, logs, or any other hard things that may come across it’s path. The board glides smoothly with its displacement hull and is easy to paddle even when fully loaded with equipment needed for the trips. Strategically placed SeaMount® Systems add to the utility of the board for securely holding down gear in the front and the rear of the board with the ability to fully utilize the deck space by having SeaMount® on the side of the board. The deck pad provides a comfortable sleeping platform and is designed to accommodate a standard size bivy sack when pulled on land. Grab handles in the front and rear make it easy to pull out of the water and drag across the ground. The board was named after Ernest Shackleton’s famous trans-antarctic attempt at the turn of the century and this board is dedicated to the hardy characters who choose create their own adventure.
We just got back from the maiden voyage of the Endurance along the Maine Island Trail off of Deer isle. We camped out on the islands for 2 nights and we’re happy to say that the board worked better then we could of imagined. Besides being easy to secure our gear to, the board floated us no problem completely loaded down with all our gear and water. It still hauled through the water with surprising speed considering how much weight was on the board. We are still cutting a video for the trip so check back on our youtube page about that. We can’t wait to take the Endurance board on more adventures and see where everyone else takes the board.
