2009 Tribute

 

New for 2009
The Perception Tribute 10.0 and 14.0

Perception believes that a kayak designed to fit comfortably should also be exciting to paddle. The new Perception Tribute has been ergonomically engineered for smaller paddlers, but with sporty performance that’s great for a wide range of paddling experience.

The new Tribute 10.0 and 14.0 put the paddler in control with good stability, tracking, and maneuverability. It’s effortless to paddle, yet has surprising speed. With the roomier cockpit and Zone DLX seat system that includes thigh and foot braces, comfort isn’t sacrificed. Bow and stern hatches with bulkheads offer storage for short trips or longer excursions.

This unique kayak experience hasn’t missed a detail. The Tribute family offers a kayak light enough for anyone to load on their vehicle, upgraded comfort-carry handles, and perimeter deck lines for safe and easy re-entry into the kayak.
