For sale: Prijon Touryak kayak located in Austin Texas. This is a basically new 2004 model kayak exactly as described on Prijon's web site - http://www.wildnet.com/ It has been in the water less than 10 times and is in new condition. It is red in color and is equipped with Prijon's balanced wing rudder (description can be seen on Prijon's web site). The foot braces / rudder controls are gas peddle type so that a solid foot brace is topped by a peddle to move the rudder. The Touryak length is 15'4",it has a 25.5" beam and a weight of 58 lbs. Asking $1250. The boat can be seen and discussed with Austin Outdoor Gear and Guidance at 877-773-2644 or (512) 473-2644. FYI - this is not a posting for a commercial establishment. I am still the owner and Austin Outdoor is selling the kayak for me on consignment because I just bought a new kayak from them. Chuck

The kayak sells for $1549 with the rudder and it is a 2004 boat in new condition. I assume that you were just posting to comment on the price, but if you are actually interested call one of the provided numbers and make a reasonable offer! Considering that the Touryak is in new condition, has an asking price that is $300 below retail and, as a 'used' kayak would have no sales tax added on I think will make someone a good deal! Chuck

I friend of mine is a Prijon dealer. He's selling a new Prijon Tourak for $1349. It doesn't have a rudder (but that would only add about $100) to the price but he's throwing in a Werner paddle and Snapdragon sprayskirt at no extra charge. That's about $250 in accessories. Does $1250 for a used Tourak still sound like a good deal.

Your dealer friend could have been more helpful if he had looked up Prijon's prices and informed you completely and correctly. Yes the new Touryak sells for $1349 w/o rudder; the Prijon balanced wing rudder, according to their current web site pricing, sells for an additional $199 (I paid $200 - I guess that they have lowered their price by one dollar!). That makes $1548 instead of the $1549 as stated above. Some dealers add in something extra, above that, to install the rudder. Can rudders be had for $100, absolutely. But, that would not be Prijon's balanced wing rudder and hardware. If you want to make an argument that the boat and rudder are not worth $1548 retail that's fine - all I am saying is that is what the retail cost is and you seem to keep disputing it when the information is available on their web site for anyone to look up! Is $1250 for a used Touryak with rudder a good deal? Absolutely, when it is a 2004 kayak in like new condition. And, to match your dealer friend, if someone pays that price I would throw in a $129.95 Wild Wasser sprayskirt that is also in new condition (no paddle though)! If I agree to a lower negotiated price the sprayskirt may come out of the deal! Chuck

One thing that I neglected to do relative to the Prijon Touryak described below was to provide a web site reference with pictures.
