Just wanted you to see how small a Feathercraft kayak is when packed. Photo taken in the rain at Pagosa Springs, Colorado.

The Feathercraft K-light is so compact and light that it's pack will fit nicely on the back of my motorcycle. The first time that I assembled the feathercraft I was concerned that it was simply too light and flexible. I have since taken it to British Columbia as well as New Zealand. It has performed beatifully in some of the roughest conditions I have ever experienced, especially in New Zealand. The boat I am now building is constructed of heavier tubing.
