Jackie's Gig Harbor kayak tours use the following kayak boats and equipment, all provided by Ship to Shore Marine & Kayaks:
Necky
rotomolded kayaks
Made from thick "milkbottle
plastic" polyethylene, these kayaks are practically indestructible. Designed
with sealed bulkheads front and rear, they are self-bouyant and will float
even if turned-upside down and filled with water. Sleek, manueverable and
well-designed, Necky rotomolded kayaks are easy and fun to paddle even for
the newest beginner.
Werner
paddles
Werner makes some of the lightest, most efficient popularly priced touring
paddles available. With fiberglass or carbon fiber shafts and nylon blades
reinforced with fiberglass or other advanced materials, they are designed
to help preserve your strength and stamina while paddling.
Stohlquist
kayak PFDs (personal flotation devices)
Designed with a high waist to stay clear of your kayak's cockpit and
free-rotation fit around the arms and shoulders for paddling, Stohlquist life
vests are the personal floatation device of choice for kayak-specific safety.
