The ALAW BACH is a boat for those who are looking for the same responsive, fun but forgiving nature of the ALAW, but with a more conventional lower knee position. The ALAW BACH has the same hull shape as the ALAW but with a lowered, more gently sloping cockpit/front deck. Like the ALAW this is a boat that happily fits into the role of touring weekend boat but also comes alive playing around in the surf and tide races.

ALAW BACH - In the Detail:
Hull: Length: 17 feet 1 inch (5.21m) - Width: 21 inches (0.53m) – Volume: 325 litres

Standard construction

The ALAW BACH is a high performance sea kayak for medium to larger size paddlers but designed with a lower knee position than the ALAW. The hull is closely based on that of the ALAW and so retains the excellent handling characteristics. The hull configuration gives high forward speed due to its long waterline relative to the overall length. The hull shape maintains good directional stability when moving but the flatter centre section and chined hull gives good manoeuvrability in confined spaces and tight turns. The ALAW BACH is designed to have neutral directional stability in most wind conditions and requires minimal use of the skeg. The bow has good shape and volume to maintain a dry ride through choppy conditions. Similar to the ALAW, when paddling the ALAW BACH you really notice the dry the ride when paddling out from the beach through surf. The buoyant bow is nicely balanced with a fine stern to give a gentle ride over large, steep waves. The fine section in the stern also allows the ALAW BACH to accelerate nicely when catching a wave without the nose tending to bury. The ALAW BACH surfs well; it catches waves easily and then is responsive but forgiving when riding the wave.
