When Liquidlogic was first founded, the team at Liquid Logic introduced the Saluda - a revolutionary recreational sit-in kayak unlike any other on the market. The Saluda 14.5 is an 14.6-foot sit-in tandem kayak that is ready for anything offering comfort, performance, and stability.
After 20 years, the Saluda series has been reimagined with the 2023 model, featuring all-day comfortable frame seating handmade in the USA and a convenient Gearstash console for storing essentials while on the water.
The Saluda 14.5 Tandem up close
The Saluda 14.5 has an open cockpit, providing ample space for 2 paddlers of various sizes. The handles on the bow and stern of the Saluda 14.5 are soft touch handles that are comfortable when carrying the kayak too and from the launch site. The front deck bungee is there to hold any items such as thongs or a dry bag. Underneath the seating is the trademarked Gearstash system from LiquidLogic ready to house gear, valuables and drink bottles while the spacious rear hatch is perfect for storing gear on quick overnight trips, making the Saluda 14.5 a versatile choice.
The Saluda 14.5 is designed for maximum comfort when tandem paddling, making it a delightful paddle for longer adventures too. The well-padded seats are firmly attached to the kayak, unlike cheaper options. The frame chair seat, reminiscent of those found in Native Titan kayaks, is super comfy and made from breathable mesh. It can be adjusted to achieve the optimal ergonomic fit for your body so you can customise the feel of the kayaks to your liking. Additionally, the seat can be detached and used as a beach or camp chair.
Flotation and Additional Features
The Saluda 14.5 comes with a sealed bulkhead, providing flotation in the event of capsizing. This feature guarantees that, even if water enters the cockpit, the back area will remain filled with air, giving the kayak an "always positive flotation".
The Saluda 14.5 is yours for on-the-water adventure!
The Liquid Logic Saluda 14.5 sit in tandem kayak is a top-of-the-line recreational kayak that has been carefully updated to optimise both performance and comfort. Featuring an expertly designed hull, a stable secondary edge, and ample storage capabilities, this kayak guarantees an exceptional paddling experience.
Whether embarking on a short overnight excursion or a leisurely day on the water, the Saluda 14.5 is a reliable and impressive choice. If you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Happy paddling!
