Remote destination expedition tripping for expert paddlers.


Design Philosophy:
Ever wanted to go down a road but had to turn back because your equipment let you down? Ever flown in to a remote and beautiful location and wished you had your canoe with you? This is why we put our heads together and designed the Kayarks. We needed a solo rig for whitewater and a long reach expedition version. The result was the KY300 and the KY380.
The Kayarks have evolved into four specialized boats. You can choose from the two different hull sizes and then configure it for flat water or whitewater and for one or two paddlers.
With the addition of a rudder and foot control in the KY380 models, tracking and speed is phenomenal, even in moderate wind conditions. What's more, the rudder is retractable for running whitewater.


KY380 LR Longreach:
The KY380 is a longer and faster inflatable canoe – suited for long stretches. The KY380 LR is rigged for solo paddling. It can easily carry enough gear for a multi day trip. The KY380 LR is the ideal fly-in and paddle expedition kraft.
KY380 FW 2 Flat water:
The KY380 FW is the two-seater version, take a friend with or use it on your own as an expedition boat. The fastest inflatable double canoe on the water. Essentially the same as the Long Reach but is fitted with two seats and adjustable rudder system.

Standard Features:
• Revolutionary V shaped floor
• Adjustable foam rubber seat OR inflatable back rest seat
• Quick-release thigh-brace system (only on KY300 WW)
• Stainless steel D-rings for securing down rig.
• Optional rudder or skeg
• Grab ropes
• Self-bailing floor for the whitewater models
