Frej seems equally at home in antipodean waters ;-)
"Hi Bjorn,
I finally launched my Frej, in Melbourne, Australia.
I must say, what a design! This boat handles beautifully, accelerates super fast, catches waves and surfs like nothing else, and still holds a great cruise speed for group paddles!
I set out to build a boat that would be a fun surf/play boat, and the Frej exceeds my expectations. It is certainly a boat which a paddler can develop with, and so much fun to paddle! I think that would be my best description. Just a fun, fun boat which excites and makes sea kayaking fun again!
Thanks again for a beautiful design.

From Ayr on the west coast of Scotland – a beautiful and well-built Frej!
"Hi Bjorn,
I finished your Frej design of this summer and have been delighted with the the kayak. It probably exceeds my expectations.
I had to raise the cockpit slightly to accommodate my geriatric knees and I extended it by 10cm, but apart from that it is as designed.
It has a skeg which works well with this boat. I managed to keep the weight down to about 16kgs. As I am in my 70ies this allows me to lift it on to the car rack on my own.
Again thanks for such wonderful kayak designs.
Jim Craig"
