Description

The Raptor blends the grace of a mono hull kayak with the stability of a catamaran. Our design patented (pending) hull combines stability and speed with a comfortable and spacious cockpit. Thermo-formed interior sections create the look and feel of a wrap around console. An acrylic/ ABS molded floor section was designed to support the weight of stand up paddlers. The open 30” wide cargo well is positioned to allow easy reach of all items from the cockpit seat.

The Raptor was designed for Pacific Ocean conditions and can handle any conditions you would normally put a fishing kayak into.

We searched for the best materials available in the construction of our Santa Cruz Kayaks. Sturdy 1.25” webbing straps, in lieu of bungee cords for fastening your gear in the boat. Even the rudder control cables are fabricated from the finest SS hardware we could find. Quality costs a little more, but it endures over time.
