Boats & Accessories

We have used products from these folks and feel good about giving them a strong recommendation.

• Impex Kayaks - www.impexkayak.com. Mel has been a team paddler and spokesperson for Impex for the couple of years and Mark has just joined the team.  We've both been friends of the folks there for a long time.  A terrific company with boats well suited to paddlers of all abilities.

Traditional Paddling

Our motto, "Adventure, Discovery, Tradition" means that we are dedicated to not only to the adventure and discovery inherent in modern sea kayaking, but to its Inuit roots, especially the Greenland influence.  Here are just a few of our favorite Greenland links.
