We sell canoes and kayaks meeting ICF marathon specifications.
We also sell kayaks that meet American marathon specs.
Canoes and kayaks used in ICF marathon races must meet the same dimension specs as flatwater sprint boats, but the minimum weights are lower.
The marathon models are the same as the sprint models but the constructions are different
in order to meet the rigorous demands of marathon racing.



Since its introduction the Nelo Vanquish has become the dominant boat on the world marathon scene.
At all major competitions and World Championships the Nelo Vanquish wins more medals than any other model.
The Vanquish is available in 2 different marathon constructions – WWR and E.
As with the sprint models, the boats are available in different sizes with the
paddler’s choice of seat, footrest (for kayaks) and choice of colour
and/or design (kayaks and canoes).
For more details check the Nelo website or contact us.
Both Kirton and Nelo produce kayaks in varying degrees of stability, all of which
are available in marathon constructions.
