Clarity is its core, intelligent design its gift. It is not without a cause that the Museum of Modern Art in NYC decided to feature the Napali Kayak as a permanent piece of exhibition.
Come experience a new exhilarating way of kayaking – endorphines guaranteed. The Napali is not only the sole transparent foldable kayak in the world; it is also among the very lightest…

The Napali is supported by a high-tech, durable and corrosion-resistant internal Carbon Kevlar frame system that comes equipped with a transparent military-grade Urethane skin, keeping the weight at a minimum. The leading-edge innovation allows the kayak to fold up small enough to fit into a hiking backpack, yet still offer the endless possibilities for discovery that transparent kayaks give. This makes the Napali the ideal kayak for long-distance touring, backcountry kayaking and vacational travels that require easy transport.

AWARDS

The Napali is an unrivaled blend of function and style. Voted by Fortune magazine as the top outdoor product of the year 2003 and by Time magazine as one of the coolest inventions of 2003, it was also nominated for the prestigious SGMA award ‘Sports Product of the Year 2004’, the Academy Award of the sporting goods industry. The Museum of Modern Art in NYC decided to feature the Napali as a permanent piece of exhibition starting in Fall 2004.
