At 530cm (17.5ft) the Mirage 530 provides the best
of both worlds for weight and straight-line tracking. It is an ideal
kayak for people under 85kg bodyweight. This kayak
can handle the same conditions as the 580 and has done similar expeditions
including a 2001 all-women crossing of Australia's Bass Strait from
Victoria to Tasmania.
The 530 is equipped with three watertight
hatches for maximum storage capacity. The fore and aft compartments
provide huge storage capacity whilst the day hatch is offset and
within easy reach for access while out on the water.
It has all the Mirage range of standard
features such as maintenance free integrated rudder, flush deck
fittings, adjustable foot controls, decklines and an unsurpassed
quality of finish.
The 530 is a fast kayak as can be seen
by the race results under our articles page but it is principally
designed as an expedition sea kayak for New Zealand and Australian
open ocean conditions.
