Jackson Kayak’s Fourth Generation Creek Boat in the past 9 years takes a
big leap forwards. The Karma takes a turn towards speed,
stability, and carving. Fast, stable, and forgiving, with
predictable turning, boofing, and a bow that rises over anything in its
way.
The 2013 Karma starts with a Hull that is flat and stable,
providing a low draft to get over rocks easily, and be stable when on
them, or on the water. The rocker profile on the Karma offers
easy downstream paddling over waves and holes with little water on
the deck, plus it ads speed into and out of drops to carry you
past the holes, and over the rocks with ease. The sidewalls of the
Karma are massive and provide huge secondary stability, plus
keep water off the deck making it less edgy. The parting line is as
high as we could make it, also giving a very forgiving shape for
side currents and holes. The deck is shedding and stable for
resurfacing, while the bow lifting shape keeps it rising up
downstream. Perhaps one of the biggest features that are built into
this boat is the downstream speed. This boat will make the
ultimate extreme racing creekboat due to the idealized shape of the
rocker, hull, and dry bow. The boat will be outfitted with the
Uni-Shock Bulkhead, sure lock backband (new 2013 model) and our
new Thermo Formed U-channel, and complete Boat Armor package for
hull support/seat and deck support.
Some of the key features of the Karma are:
- Uni-Shock Bulkhead
- Carry Strap on Bow Wall for either right or left hand carry
- Grey Sure-Lock Backband- 2013 model
