This is a movie that Captain Larry Jarboe of Wavewalk Adventures in Key Largo, FL<\/a> shot while driving a Wavewalk S4 powered by a 5 HP 4-cycle Tohatsu outboard motor.
\nThe second S4 featuring in this movie is Larry’s White Knight, the S4 workhorse that he uses daily for demos and guided fishing or diving tours, as well as a pleasure boat.
\nLarry outfitted the White Knight with a 9.8 HP 2-cycle Tohatsu outboard that propels it on flat water at 17 mph, which is currently the world speed record for kayaks*<\/a>\u00a0that Larry holds.
\nThe guy seen in this video driving this fast boat (kayak…) is the guy who designs Wavewalk’s products, for better and for worse \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

* Not every small vessel that’s compared to a kayak for marketing purpose is a US Coast Guard (USCG) designated kayak.
\nAll Wavewalk’s patented catamaran kayaks and kayak-skiffs are officially designated as kayaks.<\/p>\n
