Quroc 13' Design Notes
“Whilst ticking all the performance boxes required by a tourer, at 13’ long and 31” wide, the Qi All Water Touring Inflatable Paddle Board also provides an extremely stable and comfortable touring platform. The board’s parallel outline is deliberately maintained into a wide nose area to improve stability and load carrying options.
The outcome is great glide speed, combined with the perfect balance of stability, comfort, manoeuvrability and flexibility which make the Qi All Water 13′ the perfect board for general touring through to full multi-day expeditions.
