Why Buy a Delta Kayak?
The Delta Difference - with over 35 years of experience, they have mastered the art of kayak design and thermoforming, leading to the production of some of the finest kayaks you'll ever paddle, at an affordable price! Their hull designs provide excellent stability in rougher conditions, even in the narrower models. And their rudder system makes boat handling easy.
All Delta Kayaks are manufactured in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, and every boat is hand assembled and hand finished, so you know you're getting a quality boat when you buy a Delta Kayak. | |
Not all thermoformed kayaks are made equal! Many kayak manufacturers use low quality materials which are brittle and quickly deteriorate or break. Delta Kayaks use a layer of ABS (1) for superior impact resistance and rigidity, and a layer of Solarkote (2) for outstanding abrasion and UV resistance, producing thermoformed boats that are lighter and more rigid than rotomolded polyethylene kayaks, and cheaper and more impact resistant than composite (fiberglass, kevler, carbon, etc.) kayaks. They also look great! | |
Delta hatch covers go on effortlessly and fit securely to provide exceptional water resistance and keep your gear dry. | |
Their Contour seat system is widely praised for it's comfort and adjustability. In seconds you can move the seat forward or back, or adjust the height and angle of the backrest to dial in your comfort.

Delta Kayaks are made of materials that are safe to manufacture and completely recyclable, so at the end of your kayak's life 100% of the scrap material can be repurposed with no waste. |

Are Delta Kayaks Stable?
Kayak stability is relative. An advanced paddler may feel rock steady in almost any kayak, while newer paddlers may find some boats unstable or twitchy. Typically, a wider kayak will be more stable, so if you're looking to prioritise stability you should look at boats like the Delta 12.10, Delta 14, and Delta 15.5GT. These boats are also easier to get in and out of, due to their greater stability and larger cockpits.
