Confidence in Every Condition

Push your paddling boundaries with the Delta 16 with Rudder—a sleek, responsive touring kayak built for performance in surf, wind, and open water. With the perfect blend of agility and tracking, this kayak gives intermediate and advanced paddlers the control they crave, while offering enough storage for multi-day journeys off the beaten path.

From coastal crossings to wave-chasing fun, the Delta 16 is designed to stay composed under pressure. Its moderate V-shaped hull carves clean lines through chop, while the integrated rudder keeps you on track when the wind picks up. The low-profile front day hatch keeps essentials at your fingertips, and Delta’s proprietary Press-Lock Hatch System ensures your gear stays dry no matter what the sea throws at you.

Comfort isn’t an afterthought—it’s built in. The multi-position Contour II Seat System provides a customized fit, supporting your body over long distances. Paddle rests at the bow and stern add convenience during shore breaks or on-the-water pauses. Lightweight yet rugged, this kayak is molded from thermoformed ABS, giving you durability without the bulk.
