In an effort to get some feedback about what our readers love in a sea kayak, a few weeks ago we invited you to tell us what's your favourite sea kayak. Click here to see the original question. Now it's time for the results.

Drumroll please.

Okay, maybe scrap the drumroll. Clearly most of our thousands of readers were too busy enjoying the early spring sunshine in their favourite kayaks to tell us what those kayaks are. Either that or they're keeping it a secret to quell the competition for lightly used demo kayaks at end-of-season gear sales. Whatever the reason, the response rate to our first ever blog reader survey was pathetic. But here goes. 

THE WORLD'S 7 FAVOURITE SEA KAYAKS:

1. Seaward Chilco (By a landslide, with 2 votes. Large gear capacity)
2. Maelstrom Vaag 174 (manoeuvrable, Canadian)
3. NDK Romany (all-around capable)
4. Lettman Magellan (Nope, we've never heard of it either. It's European)
5. Valley Anas Acuta (shapely, hard chine)
6. Necky Tahsis (beautifully designed and detailed)
7. Necky Looksha II
