Overview
Comfy, playful light-touring & recreational kayak
Description
With Melker Värmdö we introduce our next generation lightweight, high-performance, and plant-based construction in a really comfy, and playful light touring & recreational kayak.
The Värmdö is targeted for savvy performance paddlers and the more recreational "la dolce vita paddlers” who wants to feel like rockstars on the water (still being able to easily toss it up on the roof rack post paddling).
Sleek, forgiving, and stable for new paddlers to learn, with performance characteristics, predictability and endless play time for surf, roll, carve, and rock gardening.
The kayak comes with the all-new premium seat with exceptional comfort and easy sit-in adjustability. The seat also comes in three different sizes ( S / M / L ) and can be mounted in three different positions, which makes it possible to tailor the cockpit experience for every variety, preference, and size of the paddler.
Värmdö LV comes with the Medium seat installed as standard, and Värmdö HV comes with the Large seat installed as standard (seat compatibility scheme below).
The adjustable and rope operated skeg allows for true tracking in even the most challenging waters. The Värmdö is delivered rudder-ready (rudder kits are sold separately).
Melker Värmdö also packs well enough for your light overnight adventures, including a large inside cockpit storage with an easy access 8,5” click-on cover.
And the smart recessed area on the foredeck, between the two hatches, holds the water bottle or the pump in place – or simply out of the way.
Production process & materials
Trad-Core is a more traditional sandwich layup with PET soric-core (made of recycled PET bottles), flax in the deck, vinylester resin, and gel coat.
Produced with premium quality resins, gel coat, fibers, and core materials using vacuum infusion and heat cure process.
Ken Whiting testing the Värmdö
”…Melker’s Varmdo is much more than one of the most beautiful kayaks ever built.
It’s a very accessible, fast and playful touring kayak that glides through flatwater beautifully, and provides the confidence and handling characteristics to excel in all types of water.
It’s a kayak that flatwater paddlers will love, and that hardcore kayakers will enjoy surfing and playing in rough water with…” - Ken Whiting
