A Polyethylene Sea Kayak That Takes Day & Weekend Trips Seriously.

The Virgo is a compact but uncompromising sea kayak for weekend warriors, at a length which provides ample hull speed for short to medium journeys whilst keeping the boat weight to a minimum, making it easier to handle all the way from lifting it off the car, through a trip full of unique experiences, to lifting it back onto the car at the end of a great adventure.

The compact design and a defined carving rail combine to give responsive manoeuvrability for exploring varied coastline environments, and high stability ensures you can venture into the unknown with confidence too.

Packing in all the essential features you’d expect of any other sea kayak in the P&H range, including a low-profile back deck for easy rolling and re-entry, and the option of a Bow Mini Hatch just in front of the paddler, round out the Virgo’s design to make it something that’ll be a pleasure both to own and paddle.

Also Available in High Volume (still Plastic) or the Composite (Various different combinations of Fibreglass/Carbon Fibre and Kevlar etc available)

Construction: CoreLite X Skeg (MKII Skeg Slider)

A V-hull cuts cleanly through the water and tracks beautifully but softens towards the centre of the boat for comfortable stability and easy release.

Moderate rocker allows the Virgo to pick up and carry speed efficiently when flat but swing around effortlessly on edge.

Hard chines engage for carving performance when edging into the turn.

A moderately steep bow ensures a high proportion of the length acts as effective waterline for hull speed.

Flared bow edges give a dry ride through choppy water and lift the boat over waves on the paddle out from the shore.

Carefully planned bow deck geometry provides stiffness and strength for deep water rescues.

A low, ergonomically shaped rear deck allows easy rolling and re-entry, with a paddle shaft recess for bracing during entry.

Bulkheaded bow and stern main hatches with market-leading KajakSport hatch covers for secure storage and a reliable seal.

Functional details such as split paddle recesses, a drop-forged, anodised aluminium security point, a paddle park, and a full complement of deck lines and bungees.

Founded in 1968, P&H quickly established a range of successful canoes and kayaks spanning various disciplines, with standout models such as the Phazer slalom kayak, and the MKII Surfer still being fondly remembered today. Producing the Orinoco under licence from Pyranha in 1975 was the beginning of an enduring relationship between the companies, and several more of Pyranha’s models were produced under licence by P&H in the following years. It was in 1979 that P&H produced its first sea kayaks (the same year that current Production Manager, Perran Shreeve joined the company), namely the ‘Umnak’ and ‘Icefloe’ designed by Derek C. Hutchinson. In the mid-90s the Capella set the benchmark for polyethylene sea kayaks, followed by the composite Capella in 1997; a few years later in 2003 Dave Patrick retired, selling the company to Pyranha who continue P&H’s heritage to this day through world-renowned models such as the Cetus and Aries. Here’s to another 50 years of P&H! ordering process for P&H
