The Mangrove fits a wide range of paddlers looking for a stable platform for a variety of uses. This stability is provided by the Mangrove’s flat bottom and full rails. Its rounded bow glides effortlessly in flat water, cuts through chop with ease, and provides a softer ride. Like the Okeanos, the Mangrove has a center fin for directional tracking and stability. It is configured with 2 FCS ll Fin boxes on the rail so you can add smaller, low-draft fins for paddling in the shallows, through mangroves, or in rocky conditions. These two side fins allow you to remove your center fin, maintain directional control and glide through the shallows without catching your center fin, as well as to be stable when resting a fully loaded board on land. There is plenty of decking for your kids, dog, cooler, as well as plenty of bungee tie-down options on the deck and tail for securing gear. The shorter length makes the Mangrove easy to handle on the water and lifting off your car. You can also store it away in smaller spaces or keep it handy on your boat for some spontaneous paddling fun.
