Fishing off a Rackham Aero

Evolve or die

Innovation runs in our blood. Breaking boundaries. Exploring the uncharted. It’s part of our DNA and forms the backbone of every product we make. The original Rackham introduced unmatched adaptability. Configuration and customization stood side by side with style and design. Then came the birth of Aero Technology. The elements of air and water combined to breathe life into our boards, and with that the evolution continued.

We have created the ultimate upset of the paddle sports world. Transformational adaptability so intuitive that it settles the battle between boards and kayaks. Meet the Rackham Aero 12′4″ + APEX Pedal Drive. The next evolution.

“Bad@$$ Fishing Rig”

This is a badass fishing rig that you can pack up and bring with you anywhere. You can easily stow it in its carrying bag and unpack/inflate it in minutes. It provides unmatched stability and swiftness on water, especially when you pair it with the APEX Pedal Drive. I can't wait for all the epic fishing adventures to come on my new Rackham Aero!

“A super-stable workhorse”

When I know I'm going to be on the water, whether it be fishing or hanging with the family, it's the Rackham Aero all day, every day. I'm always loading it up with a KULA, fishing tackle, snacks, whatever. It don't care. A super-stable workhorse without the work.
