Have you ever wanted to pack a kayak on your back and basically go kayaking anywhere and anytime you want? Chances are not many of us would do that, but for kayaking enthusiasts who are looking for an easier way of transporting their kayaks, there’s a solution for you and it is in the form of the Pakayak.
The Pakayak is described as a kayak that can be dismantled and transformed into a backpack of sorts. This means that you could technically wear it on your back which makes transporting your kayak a lot more easier. Its creators are boasting that despite the fact that it can be dismantled, it will be sturdy.
“Each of the sections of our Pakayak connect with a tongue and groove interlocking shape that compresses a silicone gasket to insure a watertight, dry boat. Each tongue and groove intersection acts as a bulkhead to increase the hull strength at the connecting seams. The sections are held together by our patented clamping system. Each clamp is rated to hold over 500 ft/lbs of force providing 2500 ft/lbs of force holding the Pakayak together at the cockpit and 2000 ft/lbs of force at the other sections.”
No doubt this is an interesting idea and for those who have always wanted to kayak but never had the space to own one, this might be a Kickstarter project worth checking out.
