Details

Rackham Gatorshell is the premium solid fishing SUP -- The Waterman's SUP in its purest form. A hybrid displacement hull with a deep V entry cuts through chop quietly, tracks straighter under load, and stays planted when conditions get real. Recessed deck lowers your center of gravity so you feel locked in when casting, managing gear, and moving around the board. Rac receivers front and rear, sandspear thru-holes, PowerPole Micro mounting, Wheel Rac receivers on the bottom, and *MAGNEPOD™ Duo on deck. The deepest rigging ecosystem of any board in the lineup.
