The Skimmer series If you want to be close to the water but dont relish the idea of being inside a cockpit, look no further than the Skimmer series sit on tops. Featuring soft Cushpads for your tush and adjustable Airestream seatbacks for perfect paddling posture, the Skimmers cruise low to the water like the coastal bird for which they are named. Need a Skimmer for two? We've got one of those too. By pairing Hurricane's lightest sit on top with Natives industry leading First Class frame seat, Hurricane has created a super stable, super comfy platform for cruising, fishing, bird watching, and simply having a blast on the water. Paddling perfection The Skimmer 116 is 11 feet 6 inches of paddling perfection. Super stable, super sleek and super easy on the eyes, the Skimmer 116 is just the right combination of length, width, and weight (42 lbs) for a nice and easy day on the water. Its a sit on top that begs to be put in the water, and when you get it there, the Skimmer 116 performs. With its touring style hull and refined scupper system, the Skimmer 116 skims across the water, cuts through waves, and slices through chop. Oh, and its super light weight raises the performance bar to a new level when youre tossing this bad boy on your racks.
