The Sitka XT (formerly “Denali”) is a lightweight “performance fit” kayak for the larger paddler. It maintains the same performance DNA as the Sitka ST, but scaled-up with abundant foot and leg room.
Spurred by numerous requests for a larger, lighter, performance oriented kayak with room for the larger paddler, we proudly call this kayak our little big boat. This boat looks sleek, but has abundant foot and leg room and the feel and performance of its predecessors. The Sitka XT is a big hit with the larger crowd.
At 15 feet 3 inches and 24.5 inches the beam, the Sitka XT features our usual deluxe deck lines and rigging, our new, fully adjustable Infinity Seat and pads, drop skeg and retractable carry handles. Hatches are a 10 inch bow, oval stern hatch and a 4 inch day hatch just forward of the cockpit for easy access to your smaller storage items. The Sitka XT cockpit is our large size, but with the addition of a keyhole configuration for extra thigh support and durability.
