With bow and stern cargo hatches, bulkheads, and both over-stern and under-hull rudders included, you can navigate waterways and distances where conventional surfskis cannot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe volume and depth are slightly greater than the V8 Surfski to handle gear stowage. The V8 Tourer bow shape borrows its profile from the current series of Epic surfskis, a very streamlined nose that is less affected by crosswinds and helps the bow rise after punching into a wave. The stern has been optimised for tracking when the over-stern rudder is utilised. Seat width and shape is similar to the current V8 generation 3 surfski. The V8 Tourer comes standard with over-stern and under-stern rudder options - excellent added value, with minimal modifications needed to change rudders - and utilises a full Epic footboard with steering pedals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe open cockpit design of the V8 Tourer offers many advantages over a traditional closed-deck kayak.
