The 3-Piece System
How it works:
- Kayak splits into bow, cockpit, and stern sections
- Stainless steel clamping system locks sections together
- Assembly takes ~5 minutes
- Watertight seals at each joint
Proven reliability: SKUK's original bolted system wasn't robust enough. After rigorous Antarctic testing, they developed the current clamping system. It's now been used on expeditions worldwide without failure.
Construction Options
| Layup | Weight | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Composite | ~23kg | Durability and value |
| Lightweight Composite | ~20kg | Easier carrying, livelier feel |
| Carbon Kevlar | ~18kg | Performance paddlers, frequent portages |
3-piece adds approximately 1kg vs standard construction.
