Description
The Mission Contour 490 is an all-round, tandem touring kayak – great for rivers and sheltered waters. Team up with a friend or family member and explore our amazing lakes and rivers, with the added safety that a double can give.
It has been designed with long distance cruising and multi-day trips in mind. The outstanding design delivers smooth, effortless performance, while the extra speed of a second paddler will take you further with less effort. Increased stability will boost your confidence in rough weather.
