In 2011 Fenn introduced the new style Fenn XT, with a single footwell similar to the advanced Fenn Elite ski. Click view the photos to view the footwell set up which is fully adjustable.
The ski you have been waiting for. Light and easy to manoeuvre the Guppie is a great junior ski and ideal for the beginner paddler. Have fun in the waves or simply paddle on the flat water. This ski is fully adjustable so can be used by the whole family.
Made under license to Fenn the Australian made Fenn XT shares exactly the same hull shape retaining the same characteristics that make this ski our most popular.
The difference between the Aussie made and imported Fenn XT:
- The Aussie made ski is now made to the newly updated Fenn XT design with the single footwell and with a more snug fit in the seat area.
- Both ski’s have exactly the same hull shape
- Fittings are slightly different yet both are very easy to adjust
- Aussie made ski is slightly lighter in the fibreglass layup at approx 15kg
- You can choose your own personalised colour scheme, where as the imported ski is always white
Lead time is approx 4 weeks from placement of order.
Officially launched on July 13, 2002 to be ready for the 2002 Avon Descent, the Finn Endorfinn plastic ski has become a new force in Racing Skis. 5.2 m in length, the Endorfinn has the size to ensure that it is a fast boat, yet retains Finn design characteristics that guarantee strength to cope with the punishment of the rapids, or surf beaches, and the manoevrability and stability that makes the Endorfinn a pleasure to paddle.
5.2 m length makes for a very fast craft while keeping the craft within legal limits when transporting on most vehicles
54 cm wide (wider than a standard racing ski) giving more displacement for the bigger paddler and more stability, making the paddling experience more comfortable and enjoyable and allowing better performance in wild or extreme conditions
Wide footwells gives you more stability and control of your craft – also fully adjustable for an efficient paddling style every paddler must be in the correct seating position to deliver maximum powerpaddling_027.jpg
High, curved deck adding longitudinal rigidity as well as a great watershed. Bow deck watersheds the bigger waves that may break over the bow allowing the boat to lift up through the foam. Extends right back to the footwell to deflect water away from the paddler to stop the stall effect by getting hit by a wall of water
Low back deck to bury in large foam pile thereby lifting the bow and giving you a controlled ride to the beach
Built in Wave Deflector to keep you dry paddling out through the break and chop by keeping the bow up riding on waves and retaining the rudder in the water for continual control and steering
Raked Bow rides up the beach, rocks, logs and weed, while offering greater safety in the unfortunate possibility of a collision with a swimmer and a more efficient surface piercing angle than a plumb bow
Full Bow and Stern for maximum waterline displacement by initiating an immediate bow wave and carrying the laminar flow the full length to the stern (thereby maximising the ‘real’ waterline length) – enabling a faster cruising speed and better load carrying for the bigger paddlerendo_in_oman3.jpg
XL Hatches allow easier access & ability to stow larger items in hull
Recessed hatches reduce the possibility of injury on hatch edges, while drains remove water from recess
High gunwhale dips at paddle entry for a more efficient paddling style
Tall Stern, providing a both a more efficient rudder mount for less water spoiling in choppy water or with the larger paddler and better lift and drive by adding reserve bouyancy when catching runs or skates
Designed specifically for the intermediate paddler. Super stable along with top end speed this ski will fill the void between the shorter Fenn XT and longer Fenn Elite ocean racing skis.
The Swordfish has proved a major success in South Africa and Australia. To book a test paddle please Email us at contact@oceanpaddler.com or PH 02 8065 0385.

The Elite hit the paddling fraternity with a bang. As soon as it came on the market it dominated all the events. Never before has a boat had such an impact. This is without doubt the best surfing boat available on the market.
The difference between the Aussie made and imported Fenn Elite?
- The hull shape is the same as imported Fenn Elite
- The seat is 30mm forward
- The hump under the paddlers thighs has been reduced. For the shorter paddler this will enable greater leg drive and comfort
- The front deck has cut outs in front of the feet where the paddle goes into the water
- Optional open and close aluminium venturi and leg rope anchor
- Price is ex Melbourne. Delivery to other states can be quoted on request.
NOTE: The standard Fenn Elite (non modified) can also be produced in Australia.
A new design from Custom Kayaks the Horizon single has been designed for the beginner paddler offering good stability. The hull design from the back of the ski to the sitting position is a little flatter which aids stabililty, whilst the design from the nose to the start of the cockpit has a sharp V section that maintains speed allowing the paddler to pick up ocean swell easily.
The seat is very deep and opens out for the widest waist at the rails. It tapers to the bottom, centering smaller paddlers so that they do not float around in the seat
The Elite SL (Slimline) is the skinny version of the worlds most successful ski the Elite. Being slightly thinner with a very pointy nose this boat is proving to be a winner amongst the top end paddlers. It is s 1 cm thinner through the seat making it slightly tippier than the Elite. This ski is for the top end and is garrunteed to be the frontrunner at all the major events this season.
You want comfort and stability then this is the boat. By far the most stable double ski you will ever sit in without giving up too much speed. Fully adjustable front and back this is the choice for Adventure Racers and those looking to cover big miles with ease.
The Elite model now available in a double and is the fastest on the market. This super quick boat is suprisingly stable. Adjustable both front and back.
The best low volume boat on the market. The RE is perfect for the lighter guys and most female competitors. Low volume gives this boat an incredible pick-up speed making it one of the fastest off the mark. Ideally suited for paddlers less than 80kg.
The Viper is a very sleek ocean racing ski making it a very fast ski especially on the calmer waters. Comes standard with fully adjustable footrest system, leak prof venturi’s and a carry handle.
Dolphin Surf Craft is Australia’s leading manufacturer of surf slife saving competition craft.
The D1 Single Racing Ski is Dolphin’s fastest ski ever released.
