The Carolina Xs is a bit of a stand alone design, a fast capable touring boat designed specifically for juniors, and this boat really works, if you have a son or a daughter who loves getting out on the water and going for longer distance trips. The outfitting is solid rather than extravagant, but works well.      

What Perception say :

Introduce children to paddling with the Carolina 12xs, a purpose designed touring kayak for kids. It’s not just a first boat but one that will grow with your adventures. No more bumped elbows on a cockpit that is too deep and wide... no more “wait for me”.

The narrow beam, defined keel and sleek bow give true tracking performance for children and lets them set a comfortable pace on river trips, making your days afloat fun for all the family. With simple and tough outfitting youngsters will have years of fun and develop good paddling skills along the way.
