Born in Brooklyn, Made for Adventure
When most people think of New York, it's Central Park, Times Square, and the bustle of a million feet moving down this or that famous street. For us, it's the striped bass fishery of Jamaica Bay. It's the sunrise over Rockaway Park seen from calm morning waters. It's paddling on the Hudson or around Sandy Hook. New York is a city of islands. There's 520 miles of coastline - more than Miami, Boston, Los Angeles, and San Francisco combined.
Family-owned and operated
We grew up on the waters of New York, fishing, exploring, and enjoying its natural beauty. But when we started looking around for kayaks, we were left wanting. Wanting a kayak that came with features like a rod holder and paddle park standard, not as an aftermarket accessory. Wanting a kayak that was sturdy enough for tandem use but steady enough for solo paddlers. Wanting a kayak that was rugged enough to last for years but priced to fit an everyday budget. There were no such kayaks around, so we took the American approach: we started building them ourselves.
