Jackson Classic Fun Series

 The Classic River running Play boat


I can’t tell a lie. I designed these boats for me, me, me, selfish me. If you are anything like me when it comes to the characteristics you like in a river running/playboat, and you are my size or weight, then you are in luck! These boats are what I consider the most fun you can have on any river that doesn’t require a full-on creekboat. It is easy to get down the river right side up, and with the most control I can provide you. It is very comfortable to sit in all day, yet small enough to get vertical on demand easily. It has great surfing speed and carving characteristics, while still being easy to keep the ends from catching. It loops and cartwheels equally well, with balanced volume fore and aft. Coming in under 30 pounds is a big plus for both performance and ease of carrying up the steepest of takeouts.

Are you 80 - 130 pounds? The classic 2Fun should feel like a well balanced sports coupe. Look for lower cockpit height, lower knees, footbumps by your feet, and the best river running play characteristics for your size. Also the lightweight design will allow you to make lightning fast maneuvers all day and still be able to load it on the car easily in the evening.

Are you are less than 210 but more than 160. If you are in this weight category you have a boat to do it all in, the classic 4Fun. This boat fits a long leg and big foot for those taller lighter folks as well.

Where is the finish line for the Classic Fun series? At the end of the road, of course. The Super Fun is functional up to a 38” inseam and 280 pounds. Yes there are a few bigger and taller paddlers out there, but 99.5% of the big guys should fit comfortably and still have the performance they are looking for.
