Elite Intermediate is often faster than a full Elite Ski for many paddlers due to its added stability allowing paddlers to work harder and more effectively especially in choppy or rough conditions. A seriously nice boat.

Product Description

The Stellar Elite Intermediate (SEI) Surf Ski provides Intermediate paddlers with an all condition boat that has high top-end speeds as well as great stability in rough conditions. Derived from the Stellar Elite Surf Skis, the SEI is also an excellent choice for experienced paddlers looking to refine their technique in heavy seas without losing speed. Other features of the SEI include a narrow catch, low volume footwell and a comfortable seat with a slight curve on the back side. We expect the SEI to set a new standard in the Intermediate surf ski class for speed and stability.

Construction Grade Information
 

At Stellar, we realize that the difference between a good boat and a great boat is not only the method of the construction, but the materials used in that process. For this reason, we import premium materials from Global leaders, such as Dupont, Toray, 3M, Plexus etc. Paired with our advanced composite construction, developed from years for R&D and production, our boats are some of the lightest and stiffest on the market. As a certified ISO 9001 company, rigid procedures and quality control measures are in place to make sure that each boat meets our rigorous standards from the material itself all the way through the manufacturing process. This ensures that not only does the boat looks and feels good, but more importantly; it performs well and is durable.

Surf Skis -

Each Surf Ski is designed to meet the rigors of the environment where it will be paddled. Every Surf Ski has a through running vertical stringer, fore and aft of the cockpit, to add stiffness to the boat when riding big waves or paddling out through the surf. The contoured stern deck and curved transition to the bow deck add structural strength to prevent stress fractures and the fiberglass taped seam reinforces the deck joint.

Advantage – This laminate is Soric cored fiberglass with a gelcoat exterior, making is stiffer and lighter than the Sport, but also at a good price point.  This laminate has better performance than the Sport, but also similar toughness and ability to absorb some abuse.  This is our most popular boat for touring and entry level surf skis for its combination of durability, stiffness, weight and price.

Excel – This laminate is Kevlar with Nomex Honeycomb core and a gelcoat exterior, making it very stiff and very light.  This is a performance laminate designed for those who desire a stiff and fast boat and know how to handle a boat on and off the water.  The Nomex core makes for a light and stiff boat, but the impact resistance is much less than that of the Advantage or Sport.  If you hit a rock or log or even tie down the boat too tight on unsupported racks, this could result in damage.

Ultra – This laminate is Carbon with Nomex Honeycomb core and a painted finish, making it extremely stiff and light weight. This is a performance laminate designed for those who desire the stiffest and fastest boat and know how to handle a boat on and off the water.  The Nomex core makes for a light and stiff boat, but the impact resistance is much less than that of the Advantage or Sport.  If you hit a rock or log or even tie down the boat too tight on unsupported racks, this could result in damage.  Secondly, the painted finish is more prone to scratching than the gelcoat finish, so take care to clean the boat well and avoid running it aground when landing to keep the finish pristine.
