YAKA BRINGS WORLD FAMOUS KAYAKS TO INDIA

February 22, 2007 - Press Dispensary - Water sports enthusiasts and holidaymakers in India can now experience kayaking at its best with the launch of Yaka (http://www.yaka.in), an adventure sports company based in Goa. Yaka has been chosen as the exclusive Indian distributor of the prestigious Perception kayaks, manufactured in New Zealand.

Perception is the world's leading designer and manufacturer of modern kayaks, which are renowned for their quality, performance, comfort and design. Yaka will be selling and leasing a comprehensive range of models for every type of paddling experience - white-water rivers, sea kayaking, touring and recreation - to retail outlets, holiday resorts and adventure sports companies.

Kayaking is emerging as a hugely popular and eco-friendly sport across the world, enjoyed by families, nature lovers and thrill-seekers alike. With its vast rivers, challenging rapids, beautiful backwaters and golden beaches, India is earning a reputation as one of the top destinations in the world for kayaking.

Greg Bourne, director of Yaka and adventure sports enthusiast, comments: "At Yaka, we have a passion for paddling. With Perception's high performance kayaks and the spectacular Indian waters, we aim to provide some of the best kayaking opportunities in the sub continent."

Yaka also has centres in Palolem Beach and Anjuna in Goa, offering high quality training from expert instructors for resort staff and tour guides, and as a company team building activity. Its flexible leasing service means resorts can offer kayaking as a fun activity to their customers, without the need to purchase, maintain or replace their own boats.

James Mitchell, Perception's export manager, comments: "Perception has been leading the way in kayak design and construction for over 25 years and we believe many people will benefit from Yaka introducing our kayaks to the Indian market for the first time."
