Black Pearl and Qanik...

My cooperation with Seabird Designs is over – our views on quality, customers and service differ too much – as this review shows.
Ready to ship – my Chinese pearls! Seabird Designs showed the new kayaks at the Nuremberg kayak fair last week, and sometimes early next year they will find their way to the shops in Sweden.
The finish is outstanding – the photos below is just an indication of the real thing (click to enlarge).
Black Pearl LV – the smallest, for paddlers up to approx 75-80 kg
Black Pearl HV – slightly bigger, for paddlers up to 100+ kg
