Your weekend adventure fits in a closet: 7 reasons apartment couples choose Reel Yaks

Want weekends on the water together, but live somewhere with no garage and a balcony the size of a rug? Reel Yaks kayaks break into sections that store indoors.

Sound familiar?

  • Nowhere to put two kayaks, or even one
  • Renting kayaks every weekend adds up
  • Plans that depend on a friend with a truck and a trailer

There's a simpler way. Here's why it works.

One kayak, two seats

One kayak, two seats

The Raptor 14ft Tandem seats two, with a 520 lb capacity, and splits into three sections.

Remove the middle section and it becomes a solo kayak, in minutes and with no tools.

Small car? Go with two solos

Small car? Go with two solos

Three tandem sections need a full-size SUV, minivan or pickup. In a smaller car, two solo kayaks may be easier.

A kayak you own has no rental clock, no booking and no closing time.

Every section fits through a standard doorway and stands upright against a wall, in a hallway or in a spare room. Customers routinely store theirs in a one-bedroom apartment.

On the water in minutes

The sections clip together with no tools: about five minutes for a solo, five to ten for a tandem. Packing up is the same steps in reverse.

Questions buyers ask

Will the tandem fit in our car?

Three sections fit most full-size SUVs, minivans and pickup beds. Check your cargo length before ordering.

Can we store it in an apartment?

Yes. Each section fits through a standard doorway and stands upright.

Can it go on the balcony?

Inside is better. If you use the balcony, check building rules and keep it out of direct sun.

No garage? No problem. Your weekend kayak lives in a closet.
