Delta 15.5GT with Skeg

Lightweight Touring Kayak

The lightweight Delta 15.5GT is an easy to handle day touring kayak that you can also use as an expedition platform. With a maximum loaded capacity of 163kg, and generously sized bulkhead storage, there is plenty of room for multi-day kit. The customisable cockpit outfitting includes the super comfortable multi-position Elevate Contour seat system along with adjustable thigh braces and foot pegs to help you get just the right fit and comfort level for those long days afloat. 

As a mid-sized cruiser with gentle rocker along the keel line the 15.5GT offers great straight-line tracking along with excellent speed and handling without compromising stability. The Delta 15.5GT is ideal for paddlers looking for a kayak that performs on day excursions and longer expeditions alike. The long waterline and sleek lines makes this an efficient hull to paddle and the moderately rockered V profile will help keep paddlers on course in any sea conditions.

The Press Lock day hatch is perfectly placed to store those small essentials you might need to access while afloat. Bow and Stern bulkhead storage compartments provide plenty of space for your kit and are also accessed by Press Lock hatch covers. The colour matched hard-shell covers provide a secure seal with easy on and off convenience. The hard shelled covers are slightly domed so shed water very nicely, they also help to increase the structural integrity of the deck and will not implode in the case of excess pressure on any of the hatches. 

The spring loaded skeg system is simple to deploy and features a kink-free operation. The skeg line is housed in a tube and tucked away under-deck so it reduces the chance of snagging when loading and unloading gear. The skeg can be deployed at different increments so the paddler can determine the amount of skeg to use in a wide range of conditions.
