Help!
I have new kayaks coming…and some of our experienced models need new homes! Here’s your chance to get a great buy at the beginning of the season and have the whole summer to play in them!
Sea Kayaks
- Valley Aquanaut HV (plastic): 17’ish by 22.5” wide. Stable, loyal and stylish rough water boat for larger paddlers. Its red, has a day hatch and with it’s skeg is so very British. $1150 ($1899 new).
- Hurricane Tracer: 16.5’ x 22”, thermoformed plastic. This 45 lb lightweight red over white boat is very playful and lots of fun to paddle for those paddlers seeking a nimble boat that they can easily toss on the roofrack. Has skeg. $1100
- Riot Brittany: 16.5’ x22”: skeg, day hatch, 3 bulkheads, plastic. This mango colored boat both tracks well and turns well and is a great starter performer for paddlers from 130-195 lbs. $1000
Fishing Kayaks
- Native Ultimate 12: Designed by fishing legend Jimbo Meador (the voice of Forrest Gump). You can stand and cast in this tunnel hull boat and has a great seat, space for tackle and sound dampeners to move quietly. Very low use, olive green….$950 new, yours for $650.
- Native Ultimate 16: This is the big tandem version of the same boat so you can take a friend or your dog or your friend’s dog. Used twice in olive and this hard to find longer size is more stable for fishing tandem or standing. New $1600+…first $1200 takes it!
