The way life should be We are so lucky. Three years ago we purchased our first two Advanced Elements Advanced Frame Sport kayaks after long consideration of many other kayak options. Being new to the sport and unsure of our affinity towards it, we opted for this model based on price, weight, ease of transport and storage. This has opened a whole new world for us. We have explored the lakes and ponds of Acadia and are now branching out to creeks, calm rivers and bays. We now own five of the kayaks, all of which we can fit in the back of a RAV4, along with paddles, pumps, PFDs, and five average sized women. It is a tight fit, but makes for unbelievable adventures. So happy and recommend them to the many people who stop to stare in admiration.

As we set out kayaking the Russian River in Sonoma, CA, we were a little concerned that Lilly, our little Westie, wouldn't like sailing in our brand new Island Voyage Kayak. But she absolutely loved it and stood in the bow like a woolly figurehead.
From Geoff Erwin:
My son and I went for a 3 day fishing trip in Kechemak Bay, Alaska in our Convertible Tandem Kayak that we have modified into a reliable fishing platform. The highlight of the trip was landing a respectable 35 pound halibut. Well, and the abnormally nice weather.
In September 2020, we held a Japanese-style launching ceremony.
Out of all the lakes in Japan, Lake chuzenji has the highest elevation.
Hi from the sunny Coromandel Peninsula on New Zealand’s North Island. Paddled from Hahei to Cathedral Cove, one of the key scenes from the Narnia series. Beautiful autumn weather, and a kind open sea.
Best adventure, exploring new islands 🏝 around Doha city using kayaks.
