Dagger Vanguard

It looks like Dagger have a prototype kayak that has broken out into the open. This is the Dagger Vanguard. It’s said to be faster than the Phantom but definitely looks shorter than the Green Boat. This means it must be around 10 feet in length.

#DaggerVanguard #FasterThanPhantomFast —— @bobbymiller24: Got my first test session in the new #DaggerKayaks Vanguard prototype! Thanks Dagger, and especially Snowy, for always pushing to make the best designs out there! I am extremely excited to get this boat dialed in with its outrageous speed and high performance edges! It is such a great boat and I can't wait to test it more on some of my home rivers.

Last weekend we spied the very obvious black preproduction prototype Pyranha 9R MKII on the water. However there was another 9R prototype on the water that was not quite as conspicuous.

Not The Only Prototype Pyranha 9R On The Water

In its classic Pyranha colours this prototype 9R doesn’t look too different to the current production model and didn’t get much attention. Given that I am a bit of a boat geek I knew it looked different from the current model.
