  • The bow and stern are designed with trolling and electric motor installation in mind. This is due to an adaptable four-bolt pattern on the stern and a flattened, mountable area on the bow along with geometry to add foot-controlled steering.

  • Jackson’s new EZ Hi-lo (Patented) seating system takes comfort to new levels and allows you to raise and lower your seat with one hand. Learn more here >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdE0FHM1tXY

Working with a team of expert big water, big game, and big tournament anglers, designer Tony Lee hand-shaped the hull with their challenges in mind. The Knarr is crafted for maximum speed, stability, handling surf, and tracking in any weather or water conditions. This remarkable kayak combined with the new FD Mark IV (Patented) makes this our most efficient pedal kayak ever.

IDEAL APPLICATION

The Knarr is the ultimate kayak for everything BIG. Designed with big oceans, large lakes, and long -distance travel at its core. The hull is shaped specifically to handle big surf, big waves, big currents, and strong winds. The Knarr was built to handle all that big water will throw at it.

For the tournament angler or gearhead, the Knarr features a whole new look at electronics, tackle, and gear management, bringing a fresh approach to deck organization on a fishing kayak.

New for 2024 Models

  • You asked, and we listened. We have added the foam blocks and re-enforced the seating area to stiffen and add support across the entire deck of the Knarr FD (as of 2023)

    After fishing many years in a boat, I started fishing in a kayak this year. I already own two fishing kayak (another brand and now the Knarr FD). The Knarr is by far the best of my two kayaks. It's faster, has a lot more space, everything has been though of (to install accessories), it's super stable (fished in heavy winds and big waves). I love my Knarr. Jackson Kayak has really created the ultimate fishing kayak.

    You can put the prop in position two to pedal in shallow and make it also almost weedless. It turns fast. Yes it is heavy but it was not built to walk around with it. It's a real tank!

    I purchased my Jackson Knarr on June 24, 2022, at "The Shack" store in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Since then I've been using my Knarr every weekend. About three weeks ago I had an epic kayak fishing day on my where I was able to fight big Tarpons at the Río Grande de Loíza, here in Puerto Rico. The Jackson Knarr FD handled extremely well and basically did not notice the traction power of these Tarpons. The new Flex Drive Mark IV is smooth and fast allowing me to move back and forward in the blink of an eye. The stability is outstanding, the cockpit area is huge and it allows me to accommodate up to six rods inside the kayak. The steering system on the right and on the left side of the boat allowed me to work the Tarpons without any problem when I had to change the rod from one hand to the other without losing steering control. The Jackson Knarr FD has changed the kayak fishing game for me. I cannot wait to upload a lot of Fresh and Salt water content for my YouTube Channel. The Jackson Knarr FD is the Ultimate Fishing Machine for the demanding angler on both the sea and the lake, period. I totally recommend it.
