Layup weights
On-water profile
Both scores are rated at the hull's own design weight. How these are derived.
Suits: Crews wanting more pace than the XT S in downwind/ocean swell without the Elite S's twitchiness; a good step-up double for improving pairs.
Paddler weight
This hull is built around a paddler of about 91 kg per seat. It stays workable from 80 kg to 96 kg, and sits at its best between 84 kg and 92 kg.
Derived from published hull dimensions and calibrated against manufacturer paddler limits, not taken from a marketing range. The method, in full.
Generations
Newest Fenn double, launched 2024 to sit between the XT S Double and Elite S Double.
What works, and what it costs you
What works
- Middle-ground stability/speed positioning fills a real gap in Fenn's double lineup
- Newest hull design/tooling in the range
- Same construction/price tiers as other Fenn doubles (no premium for the newer model)
Trade-offs
- Very new - limited independent reviews or used-market data yet
- Not as stable as the XT S for true beginners, not as fast as the Elite S for racing crews
What paddlers say
No independent paddler reviews found yet (model too new); marketing description only, from Oceanpaddler/Fenn dealer copy.Reported experience
