The Chatham 16 comes complete with a skeg, gracefully upswept “Greenland style” bow and stern, a playful rocker, steep chines, a low, streamlined deck and whitewater-inspired outfitting. This so-called British trend is a lot like low-carb dieting: some say it’s just a silly fad that’s sure to pass, while others say it’s a sign that North Americans are finally smartening up. For smaller to medium-sized folks who fit into it, intrepid beginners or energetic experts, the Necky Chatham 16 is a slim and sporty choice for most types of serious sea kayak play, from day trips to medium-length tours.
