It is basically a Klepper Aerius II, with upgrades in materials and workmanship. Mark Eckhart, the owner of Long Haul has been repairing Klepper boats for about 20+ years. He took what he learned, and started making them in the US. I believe Klepper is now being made in Poland.rando said:Beautiful!
Reminds me of a Klepper - is it?
It’s a CDory forum, kinda like the waterborne version on WTW. Here’s a linkDavidGraves said:No
What is that ?
We bought a used Folbot Greenland II several years ago, thinking it would be a great boat to use with our CDory when poking around places like Lake Powell. I found it difficult to assemble and somewhat fragile. I pulled rivets out of the keel lock when I didn’t get one of the stems perfectly aligned in the skin. But... I loved the concept of a folder.Wango said:Wow,
Just when I thought I was over my desire to buy any more kayaks. Have been yakking since 93 and have a nice armada going in the garage, but will definitely be looking at this company.
We purchased a gently used folbot about 3 years ago, just for Baja, and while we like it, would like an upgrade to go with the other boats we have. As much as I love my hardshell, the thought of getting it off of the roof of my camper is off-putting to say the least. Trailer only for the big boats from now on I'm afraid.
Thanks for posting.
