The TRAK Kayaks have been designed as portable touring kayaks that will allow avid aquatic enthusiasts to bring their gear with them wherever they go without the need for oversized equipment.

The kayaks are crafted using [military-grade skin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pelican-atx-carryon) that has been laid on top of the [aluminum and carbon fiber frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/truckhouse-bcr-expedition-camper), which allows the vessels to provide up to ten years of stability in any condition. The vessels fit seamlessly into the accompanying [wheeled travel pack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taskin-swift), which makes the whole unit weigh only 19 kilograms in total. This makes it far simpler to transport in a car or with you when traveling overseas.

The TRAK Kayaks can be setup for use in just ten minutes and can be customized to suit your needs.
