The Aries takes the ground-breaking Delphin design and refines it for production in advanced composite material systems by our highly skilled and experienced craftsmen, making it truly come alive in the surf, as well as on short to mid-length expeditions.
A planing hull is highly manoeuvrable, reassuringly stable, and ideal for use in the surf, where the high volume bow with pronounced rocker in combination with a set-back cockpit position prevents the Aries from purling and allows you to ride the wave all the way in to shore.

This is a fully customisable composite kayak. It is available in 2 lengths (150 at 466cm and 155 at 485cm) and 5 constructions listed below, as well as having countless options for colour/design, which can be explored in P&H's customiser. It has many options for steering control (coming stock with a skeg if no option chosen), can be setup with a sail, compass and automatic bilge pump, and can be reinforced in many different areas if you wish.
