Its moderately rockered hull delivers responsive tracking and graceful turning, whether you're navigating twisting streams or expansive lakes. The ultralight construction makes loading effortless on any vehicle, opening up possibilities from quick morning paddles to week-long adventures. Designed for comfort and control, the Inspire features a shallow arch hull for stability, noticeable tumblehome for easy paddle handling, and traditional contoured seats that sit high for excellent visibility. Solo paddlers enjoy stable, responsive performance across varying water conditions. Tandem teams in the 150-pound range will appreciate the spacious layout, though larger paddlers may prefer the Inspire 16. Customize your setup with solo or tandem outfitting—choose traditional canoe paddles, kayak-style seating with a double blade, or oars for rowing. The boat handles waves up to 24 inches comfortably and competes with pack boats for portaging and backwater exploration. Ultralight rot-resistant cedar decks and thwarts, adjustable seat options, scupper spacers, and strong grab loops round out this capable, lightweight platform that transforms every paddle into an unforgettable experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"comp-mi3vro7r1__item1\" data-testid=\"imageX\" class=\"i4P7Vt comp-mi3vro7r1 comp-mi3vro7r1__item1 ZYZJBv wixui-image\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"YX2qkL\" data-motion-part=\"BG_LAYER comp-mi3vro7r1__item1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-motion-part=\"BG_MEDIA comp-mi3vro7r1__item1\"\u003e\u003cpicture\u003e\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/faf25f_dad002e40435421793a704c8b04f28d9~mv2.jpg\/v1\/crop\/x_676,y_374,w_1460,h_1903\/fill\/w_374,h_487,fp_0.50_0.50,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto\/IMG_5827_JPG.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_5827.JPG\" data-ssr-src-done=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/picture\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"comp-mi3vro7s7__item1\" class=\"N8MGzv _v6ohL ZS_qLz PO9MfV comp-mi3vro7s7 comp-mi3vro7s7__item1 wixui-rich-text\" data-testid=\"richTextElement\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font_3 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eWeight \u0026amp; Cost\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKevlar\/Carbon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"comp-mi3vro7u__item1\" class=\"N8MGzv _v6ohL ZS_qLz PO9MfV comp-mi3vro7u comp-mi3vro7u__item1 wixui-rich-text\" data-testid=\"richTextElement\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eKCH - 24 lbs solo \/ 27 lbs tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e$2,195 solo \/ $2,395 tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"font_4 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eInnegra, Basalt, Kevlar \u0026amp; Carbon Hybrid\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eIBKCH - 24 lbs solo \/ 27 lbs tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e$2,295 solo \/ $2,545 tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"font_4 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003ePure Carbon\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eCarbon - 19 lbs solo \/ 22 lbs tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e$2,445 solo \/ $2,745 tandem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"comp-mi3vro7v7__item1\" class=\"N8MGzv _v6ohL ZS_qLz PO9MfV comp-mi3vro7v7 comp-mi3vro7v7__item1 wixui-rich-text\" data-testid=\"richTextElement\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SLIPSTREAM WATERCRAFT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51546828144935,"sku":null,"price":2195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/2676\/0999\/files\/0.avif?v=1782582027","url":"https:\/\/kencooutfitters.com\/products\/slipstream-inspire-14-5-solo-hand-laminated","provider":"Kenco Outfitters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
