Delta 15s w/Skeg

First introduced in 2013, the Delta 15s kayaks (with skeg) is the perfect companion to the larger 16 and 17 with its smaller, shallower cockpit and lower deck height. This allows smaller paddlers access to an exceptional performance touring kayak without sacrificing fit, stability, or performance. Fits small-medium sized paddlers well. 

Skeg

All kayak models in Delta's Performance Touring category come with the option of the Spring Loaded Skeg System. Their 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. As a note, a skeg can be deployed at different increments so the paddler can determine the amount of aid in tracking needed. A skeg does not move side to side so it will not aid in steering the boat. If you would like a steering aid, you can request a rudder as an option.
