Dagger Katana 9.7 Crossover Kayak 2025

A crossover kayak that truly excels in any water, the Dagger Katana 9.7 Crossover Kayak was designed to inspire confidence.  in the paddler with a balanced rocker profile for speed on the flat and maneuverability in whitewater. The hull is designed for initial stability while the beveled and flared side-walls create secondary stability. The rounded stern deck shape, taken from the Mamba design, sheds water easily, making it forgiving in heavier white water.  The Katana also offers a more spacious cockpit than traditional whitewater designs for a less confining feeling. Reinforced hatches and a removeable bow bulkhead offer unparalleled gear storage, while the drop skeg add speed and stability. 

Dagger's Contour ergo outfitting system is the best in the business with maximum adjustability.  The roto-molded seat had leg lifters in the front which gives it the feel of a sports car with bucket seats.  You are not going to silde forward off the seat and you can adjust how snug the cockpit feels on the fly.  Adjustable thigh braces and hip pads complete the system and will help you execute the roll by keeping you in the seat when upside down.

The 9.7 is perfect for smaller paddlers, or paddlers who do not need the added storage capacity of the larger model.
