2026 Jackson Coosa X HOW Package
Jackson Kayak and Heroes on the Water have come together for something truly special — a limited-edition collaboration that puts one of the most capable river fishing kayaks ever made in the hands of those who want to paddle with purpose. Only 50 of these packages will ever be produced, each one finished in an exclusive Olive/Black colorway and bundled with a handpicked collection of premium accessories, with a direct donation to Heroes on the Water made from every single sale. If you've been waiting for a reason to pull the trigger on your next kayak, this is it — because this purchase does more than put you on the water. It helps get a veteran there too.
Heroes on the Water is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping wounded warriors, veterans, and first responders find healing through the therapeutic power of kayak fishing and the outdoors. Through a nationwide network of chapters, HOW provides free kayak fishing outings, community, and a path to recovery for those who have sacrificed so much in service to others. Paddling with a Coosa X HOW Package means you're not just investing in your next adventure — you're investing in theirs.
At the center of this package is the Jackson Coosa X, the most refined river fishing kayak Jackson Kayak has ever built. Born from decades of moving water hull design and shaped by direct input from the JK fishing team, the Coosa X is a true Team Signature watercraft built to perform where most fishing kayaks won't even try. Added bow volume gives it confident, controlled performance in current, while the thoughtfully designed deck layout offers anglers the flexibility to rig for any style of fishing — whether that's a technical mountain trout stream, a winding lowland river, or a quiet backwater pond miles from the nearest road. Stable enough for a beginner, responsive enough for an expert, and rugged enough for multi-day kayak camping trips, the Coosa X is equally at home on adventure expeditions and lazy Sunday float trips.
Every 2026 Coosa X comes equipped with the all-new Jackson Kayak Comfort Seat 5.0 — the most advanced version of JK's iconic seat system and now standard across the entire fishing lineup. The 5.0 was redesigned from the ground up with a deeper ergonomic base that promotes better posture, lowers your center of gravity, and delivers a more connected, stable feel on the water. After a full day grinding through technical river sections or casting from a stationary position for hours, the difference in comfort and support is something you'll notice every single time you paddle.
Each Heroes on the Water Package ships ready to fish, including a Werner Shuna 250cm paddle, Platypus Hydration Bladder, JK Pouch Sling, Weekend'r Tumbler, Line Cutterz Ring, and Fish Grips. And as if that wasn't enough, every customer who purchases and registers their bundle on the Jackson Kayak website will be automatically entered for a chance to win a one-of-a-kind HOW Custom "Golden Ticket" paddle — a truly collector-worthy piece created exclusively for this collaboration. The winner will be drawn at the end of the summer season, making every registration its own reason to get excited.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package
Is the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package a good river fishing setup?
The Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package pairs a river hull with a paddle chosen to suit it, which is the part that matters on moving water. The 11'8" length turns inside creeks, and the oversized transducer scupper handles a fish finder transducer if you run one. Choose water that matches your experience. Our river kayak fishing tips cover working current safely.
What comes with the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package?
The Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package includes a limited edition Coosa X hull in Olive and Black, a Werner Shuna 250 cm paddle with color varying by availability, a Platypus hydration bladder with a JK pouch sling, a Weekend'r tumbler, a Line Cutterz ring and fish grips. No pedal drive, trolling motor or electronics are listed as part of this package.
What are the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package dimensions and weight?
The hull in the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package is 11'8" long and 36" wide, weighing 94 lbs bare or 102 lbs with the Comfort Seat 5.0 fitted, with a 425 lb maximum capacity. River trips usually involve a shuttle, so confirm your vehicle roof load rating, your rack and crossbar ratings and any cart rating before settling on how you will move it.
How is the Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package different from the standard kayak?
The Jackson Coosa X Heroes on the Water Package uses the same hull as the standard kayak, and what it adds is the limited edition Olive and Black colorway, the Werner Shuna 250 cm paddle and the small accessory bundle. If you already own a paddle you are happy with, the Jackson Coosa X on its own may serve you better. Call us and we will price both routes.
