Sponsors

The Olympic Kayak Club would like to thank the following major sponsors. We will be giving away these three kayaks in this year’s Puget Sound Challenge. The photos below do not represent the actual boats, the colors may vary. It should also be mentioned that these boats will not be delivered to the winning raffle ticket holder. Those individuals will need to make arrangements to pick up their boat. Support the water trails and perhaps if luck is with you get a really great boat.

***** Update ***** Online raffle ticket purchases are now closed. There is one final boat available and it's the Necky Looksha Elite. The drawing for that boat will be on the final day of the Challenge in Allyn, Washington. Raffle tickets will be available for that drawing andcan be purchased the day of just prior to the drawing.

1. NECKY LOOKSHA ELITE

Necky Kayaks, a leading designer of performance kayaks, has introduced its newest innovation, the Looksha Elite. A composite, expedition style kayak with incredible carrying capacity, the Looksha Elite blends premium materials with the experience of Necky®’s skilled designers to create a lightweight yet durable kayak.

2. HURRICANE TRACER *** Update*** This boat was won by Herb Kai. Herb was the lucky winner of the second boat in our series of three. The Looksha Elite is still yet to be drawn. Online ticket purchases are now closed but ticket will be available on the final day of the Challenge in Allyn just prior to the final drawing.

For less than many heavy roto-molded touring boats, you can now own one of the most seaworthy designs on the water. The Tracer 165 is a sleek, fast and comfortable kayak that sets a new standard in the industry. Weighing a scant 48 lbs, this 16-ft, 5-in beauty is the perfect size for most paddler’s 2 to 4 day trips.

3. EDDYLINE FATHAM *** Update*** This boat was won by Gay Fawcett. We had our first drawing during our Seattle Police Foundation Paddle and she was the lucky winner. The two boats above are still yet to be drawn so get your tickets now for your shot at a new boat.

The Eddyline Fathom is the best kayak design to hit the water in years. The Fathom's highly efficient hull is fast, nearly effortless to accelerate to speed, yet carries a comfortable degree of initial stability. The combination of hard chines mid-ship and a healthy degree of rocker provide high secondary stability making leaned carved turns and bow rudder turns a breeze.
