About us

The world leader in kayak design and manufacture

Although Dagger are based in the USA, Dagger kayaks have also been manufactuerd in the UK since 1999, at Palm Equipment's specialist facility in Clevedon. Palm have been designing and making kayaks since 1979, and our founders have been building their own boats in the garage since they were at school. Today we manufacture a large proportion of Dagger's range, and import and distribute select models from the Dagger factory in South Carolina.

We are a company run by kayakers, for kayakers, and the products we sell are the same ones we paddle ourselves. We stand behind all of our boats and are proud to make only kayaks of the highest quality, both in design and manufacturiung.

Dagger kayaks represent the best quality for the money you’ll find anywhere. All of our products are put through the ultimate test known to man – approval by Team Dagger. Dagger owners know that their kayak didn’t go into production until it met the standards of our world leading designers, and took the beating of a lifetime from our team paddlers.
