Killarney 12' Stitch and Glue Kayak Kit

The Killarney's have a width much like recreational kayaks this was to allow us to design shorter boats with enough capacity for carrying gear and for ease of carrying through the bush while portaging. Unlike most other double paddle boats you will see which started from a canoeists point of view, these where started from the kayak end of the paddling spectrum, these boats will allow the paddler to carry their gear in a pack; and have been designed to be portaged with a removable yoke like a solo canoe.

This series is for those who like to camp but do not want to pack all their gear into the small hatches in a kayak these boats are designed so your gear can be stowed in a pack behind your seat. These boats will give you more kayak like performance and are propelled using a double blade paddle.
