Perception Tribe 9.5

An affordable, easy to paddle, and great looking sit-on-top, the most surprising thing about the Tribe 9.5 is just how great it paddles. It performs terrific in surf and rough ocean conditions, but is also speedy and maneuverable on flat water and lazy rivers. With side handles built-in plus additional bow and stern handles, carrying and car topping is a breeze.
The Tribe is a low-maintenance kayak, but don't mistake simplicity for slow and bulky. It offers speed, control, and comfort. The ergonomic design puts the paddler's feet level with the body rather than at an awkward angle. Plenty of storage from bow and stern tankwells will have you living in the moment while thinking about what adventures next weekend will bring.

Perception Tribe 11.5

Perception continues the heritage of family fun on the water with the new Tribe series of stackable, sit on top (SOT) kayaks. The Tribe 11.5 is about easy care, ease of use, and good times, all the way down to the bright color options. But don’t mistake low maintenance for low performance. This SOT is equally comfortable surfing ocean waves or cruising lakes and lazy rivers. Added length in the 11.5 means more speed, added storage, and an extra boost in the surf. Makes a great all-around boat for larger paddlers.
What sets it apart: Value and ease are not exclusive of performance in this playful series. It is a great fit for the discerning price-conscious paddler or an entire family, from beginners to veterans. And to the joy of storage-challenged folks everywhere: they stack.
