Delta Traverse 17.5T with Rudder

Tandem Touring Kayak – Lightweight & Comfortable

The Delta Traverse 17.5T is the ultimate lightweight tandem touring kayak designed for comfort, efficiency, and versatility across UK waterways. It’s ideal for couples, friends, or family members who want to paddle together in comfort, without sacrificing speed or storage.

At just 73 lbs (33 kg), the Traverse 17.5T is one of the lightest tandem kayaks in its class, making transport, launching, and portaging easy—whether you're paddling canals, lakes, or coastal waters. Thanks to its thermoformed ABS construction, it combines durability with a sleek and stylish finish. Not only is the light weight an advantage on the water you will very much appreciate how easy it is to lift onto a car roof rack too!

With a streamlined hull and excellent tracking performance, the Delta Traverse is designed for smooth, stable paddling, even for beginners or mixed-ability pairs. Whether you're exploring the Norfolk Broads, Scottish lochs, or the South West coastline, this tandem kayak delivers a fast, fun, and efficient ride. The foot operated rudder is easy to use, in many situations the rudder alone is enough to change course sufficiently and is a great asset in windy or choppy conditions.

Comfort is provided with individually adjustable Contour II Seat Systems, providing ergonomic support for long-distance trips. Generous cockpit space, easy-to-reach foot braces, and three storage hatches make this kayak ideal for day tours or weekend adventures.
