Background
Folding kayaks are true descendants of the original Inuit skin-on-frame
kayaks made from seal skins stretched over frames of driftwood and bone.
Feathercraft uses state of the art materials, cutting
edge technology, and innovation to build today's premier folding kayaks.

Skin-on-frame
construction and
design is demanding. Careful consideration must be given to the relationship
between the frame, the skin, and the water. The resulting craft is one of
the most sophisticated of all small boat designs and the most rewarding to
paddle. The frame flexes, absorbing wave energy and enabling the kayak to
remain steady while gliding forward. The skin responds actively to the water
-- there is only swift, quiet, forward motion.
Traditional Touring
Kayaks
Feathercraft has been making high performance touring kayaks for over
25 years. Feathercraft's Sealskin technology uses radio frequency welding
to bond hulls made of Duratek to decks made of Polytech. The resulting kayak
skin is completely watertight. Sturdy frames are made of aluminum/magnesium
alloy tubing and high-density polyethylene or polycarbonate crossribs. Shock
cords connect longitudinal sections like tent poles and color-coded tubing
eases assembly. No additional tools are necessary. (Click here for
Construction
Details.)
Internal air chambers called sponsons tighten the skin, add flotation,
and increase secondary stability. Comfortable seats with built-in lumbar
support, solid foot braces, and built-in cockpit coamings with sea socks
ensure seaworthy kayaks that you will enjoy paddling.
Color Choices
Deck color choices
are blue, carbon, green, red and yellow. (Orange is no
longer available.)
