View boats in stock.
While we're proud to carry the lines of sea kayaks from P&H, Epic, Nigel Dennis and Venture, there are many other fine kayaks, and from time to time a few will find their way into our shop.

Orange Sea Kayak
Occasionally we will be selling boats on commission, or re-selling used boats that have come our way. Look below for details of specific boats we have in the shop.

We are also pleased to have a working relationship with Tim DeMars of Aquadisiyak Custom Watercraft. The local craftsmen and artisans produce some of the finest wood-strip kayaks available.

These unique boats are, in fact, works of art – featuring custom inlays, carvings, or the paintings of Lowcountry artist Gaye Sanders Fisher. Contact us if you'd like to discuss these custom made masterpieces.

Skin-on-Frame Baidarka

Built locally by Bruce Lemon, this skin-on-frame Baidarka is to George Dyson's design using materials from the Dyson Baidarka Co:

Baidarka  - a Dyson design

Covered with Dyson 7 oz. cloth and sealed with Dura-Tuff, this is an SoF that will stand-up to real use.Artificial (nylon) sinew is used to lash the white oak ribs to the douglas fir stringers. The coaming is white oak over fir. A light application of tung oil helps to protect the wood.

NOTE: You can learn more about the historically Aluet Baidarka design and what goes into building a SoF in modern times at the Skinboat School website.

Valley Kayaks – Pintail

The original ocean play boat. Lively and of low volume, the Pintail is most at home surfing or playing in turbulent waters. Although some say this traditional, ocean cockpit design has been superseded by the Avocet, the Pintail is still available and has many fans.
Baidarka  - a Dyson design
Length 17'2"
Width 21"
Depth 12"
Weight 51lbs


We have two used boats available a a tremendous savings. These are vintage examples of a heritage design in outstanding condition: relatively new hatch covers, bungees and deck lines compliment the Purple and Yellow decks which have been stored indoors and out of the sun.

A perfect fit for smaller paddlers, and for those who enjoy a playful, responsive boat. These fine boats have to be seen to be believed.

FOLBOT Kiawah

Folbot has been making quality, packable, portable kayaks since 1933. And their center of world operations is here in Charleston, SC.

The Kiawah is the perfect kayak for paddlers between 100 and 180 lbs. Light and easy to assemble, the Kiawah tracks very well, has good initial and secondary stability and achieves hull speed with a minimum of effort.

FOLBOT Kiawah
With a revolutionary skin tensioning system, the entire frame snaps together outside of the skin, making assembly a breeze. Zippered decks assure easy access to gear. The frame is corrosion proof, and both bow and stern decks are zippered for easy gear access. The Kiawah is shipped in a soft backpack-style bag, with an optional shoulder harness, sternum strap and waist belt, and includes one standard 3-piece Folbot paddle and floatation bags.

This boat is being sold complete with a custom Folbot spray skirt and paddle. Save over $400 vs. the price of this equipment new. (This set purchased new, April 2008, comes with lifetime waranty information and un-filled-out Folbot registration.)

Length: 13' 3"
Width: 24"
Cockpit Dimensions: 30" x 16"
Weight: 32 lbs.
Max Payload: 200 lbs.
