Speed is the name of the game for the 14. But with a side order of advanced comfort and stability.
The Scupper 14 is the original Swell Watercraft kayak. The concept was to lower the footwells below the waterline, which had never been done in a sit-on-top. This would lower the center of gravity, creating leverage, shrink the paddle entry zone, allow for superior body position and a fast, narrow hull.
The end result is a sit-on-top that paddles better than a sea kayak. The hull and paddle cuts make for a short, natural stroke. No more banging knuckles on the side of the boat or your knees. The top and bottom sheet of polyethylene bonds throughout the entire footwell area, making this kayak stiff, efficient and straight-tracking.
Hitting 4.5 mph in this boat is easy, yet it’s incredibly stable. It has amazing secondary stability, allowing paddlers to athletically lean the boat through turns and into side winds and waves. This is in contrast to kayaks with primary stability, which feel like barges and only reacts to your shoulder muscles.
This kayak is appropriate for rivers, lakes, bays and even open ocean. Paddlers of all shapes and sizes will also feel comfortable in it. Little kids can actually paddle it, and big kids can make it dance across the water. The 14 spans the gap between family and beginner paddling to advanced saltwater and long expedition trips.
If you believe going faster is better than going slower, but want something solid, reliable and stable: The Scupper 14 may be for you. The glide is addictive. The details are dialed in. And the versatility is baked in.
Speed. Comfort. Stability. All in one kayak.
