Lettmann 2027 Pre-Order Boats

As one of many half-slice kayaks we wanted to make sure, there’s something about the Lettmann Machete that sticks out. And well, we’re proud to say there’s no half-slice as uncompromising as ours. We went with an incomparable rocker profile which allows the Machete to emerge in an extremely controlled manner. At the same time the tail is more slicey enabling you pirouette for hours.

How did we combine such opposite characteristics one might ask? Here’s the answer to that: The Machete is blessed with a broad and flat hull from nose to tail making it pinball over waves and stoppers and switch right back in to control after landing. Neat and playful on easy sections, as well as fully in control in heavy whitewater – that’s what the Machete is all about.
