For bigger paddlers who want a sea kayak that's genuinely fun to throw around in rough water without sacrificing the ability to cover real distance, the Zegul Arrow Play HV 3D C-Core delivers on both counts.

Designed by Jesper Kromann-Andersen and built in Zegul's 3D C-Core lay-up, the Play HV pairs a clear carbon hull with a coaxial carbon weave at mid-ship, vacuum-infused with high-quality epoxy resin and a blend of carbon fibre, carbon/aramid, and glass multiaxial fabrics. It's a stiff, lightweight build sized for paddlers in the 175 to 240 lb range. The moderate-to-aggressive rocker and shallow-arched hull make it noticeably playful in dynamic water, and at 16'9" it's more manoeuvrable than the longer Play MV. Load it up for a tripping run and the rocker profile settles, extending the waterline and improving straight-line efficiency for multi-day paddling. Hard chines give the hull predictable secondary stability and confident edging, while the rounded mid-ship profile lets it transition smoothly from edge to edge when conditions get interesting.

The keyhole cockpit is 32.5" x 16.25" and fits larger paddlers well once seated, with enough fore-deck depth to bend knees comfortably. The contour backband, thigh braces, and adjustable footpegs provide the contact points needed for bracing and rolling, and the flat rear deck handles self and assisted rescues cleanly. Four Kayak Sport VCP-style hatches including a mini foredeck pod keep gear accessible on longer outings.
