The Knarr FD is 100% dialed-in on the challenges presented by oceans and large lakes. Bring on the surf, current, wind, tide and the elements - these are the focus of our design.
NEW FOR 2025 - our steering system has been updated from a two-handed to a single-handed system, which eliminates the excess steering line and greatly reduces the amount of manual tensioning required due to temperature fluctuations.
Want to swap your steering from the left side to the right side of your kayak? Here are instructions detailing how to do just that: https://jacksonkayak.com/knarr-steering-side-swap/
