Wilderness Systems TSUNAMI 175

Wilderness Systems TSUNAMI 175 with rudder, the largest and fastest kayak in the TSUNAMI series

The TSUNAMI 175 with rudder is the largest model in the TSUNAMI series, a 528 cm expedition kayak for larger paddlers or those who need maximum speed and storage capacity. This is not a kayak for a weekend paddle; it is a serious touring tool made for long distances and tough conditions.

A 181 kg load capacity is the highest in the TSUNAMI series. This means even a heavier paddler can take a week's food, a tent and all the camping gear without losing stability. The 528 cm waterline gives a high cruising speed with less effort.

Key features

✔ 528 cm expedition hullthe longest in the TSUNAMI series. Maximum speed and glide efficiency for long distances. Every stroke carries you further than in any other TSUNAMI.

✔ 181 kg capacitythe highest in the series. A heavier paddler + a week's worth of gear = stable, controlled paddling.

✔ Integrated rudderessential for a kayak of this length. A 528 cm hull reacts more strongly to crosswinds than shorter models. The rudder compensates for this automatically through foot control.

✔ Phase 3 AirPro seatadjustable at all three points: height, recline, lumbar support. When a day on the water lasts 8+ hours, this is a must.

✔ Maximum storagethe longest hull = the largest storage compartments. Two hatches, mesh deck pockets, under-deck stash space.

✔ 61 cm widthoptimal stability for a large paddler even in a fully loaded kayak.

Who it's for

For larger paddlers (180–200 cm, 85–110 kg) and fans of long expeditions. Week-long coastal trips, lake crossings, sea routes with camping. If you travel more than 25 km a day with full gear, the TSUNAMI 175 is the logical choice.
