NDK - Romany - White Deck, Black Trim, White Hull - Standard Layup (Consignment/Used)
A classic British sea kayak with a reputation for confident handling in rough water, the NDK Romany is a favourite among coaches, guides, and paddlers who enjoy developing their skills. Responsive on edge, easy to roll, and predictable in challenging conditions, it’s equally at home on a relaxed coastal paddle or playing in moving water.
This is the original Romany, built before the model was renamed the Romany Classic. Its exact year is unknown; the estimated build date is between 2001 and 2011, but no serial number has been located to confirm its age.
In very good used condition, this boat comes with a fitted deck compass, an inflatable paddle float, and a Werner Corryvreckan bent-shaft paddle, 210 cm.
