Awesome Illusion Paint Job

Thanks to Peter for sending me some photos of a new Illusion that was just delivered to a customer.  The paint scheme is identical to what I will be getting with the high white sides.  The exception is mine will be high vis yellow instead of the international orange of this kayak.  I’ll be working a second job next week that should give me the money to pay it off.  Can’t wait.  Hopefully I’ll have it next month as I just signed up for a Body Boat Blade class and would love to have this high performance boat to get the most out of the class.  The class is Performance Paddling.  I have often thought I am a very inefficient paddler.  I hope that this class will tune me up.

Here are some photos of the high white Illusion.  I was told by somebody that they thought it looked like a gym shoe.  Is that a good thing?  I love the way it looks.  I think the white really pops out.high-white

The high white seems to minimize the high rocker look.

Just a great photo of a high vis yellow Illusion.

  1. I’ve taken a few BBB classes. They are great investments in paddling skills. Plus Shawna and Leon and just really good people to paddle with. One thing: they work you hard so spend a lot of time getting in condition. the stronger you are, the more fun you’ll have.

    Nice boat BTW. The paint job gives it panache.
