Box Stores may try to
match our prices but they can't match our service.
"Don't be fooled! Make believe kayak brands from the Big Box Store are NO Bargain...
The Box store makes up a brand name and has the kayak made in China or Thailand.
The container of kayaks from China has no parts in it. The Box store certainly stocks no parts.
When your seat and footbrace breaks or you lose the hatch no replacements are available.
Shop at the box stores and you'll find you're on your own both before and after the sale.
Hoping that you've made a good choice rather than knowing you've bought the best value for
the priorities you have and the waters you want to explore.
Just like for the last 50 years, Oak Orchard has parts in stock for the brands we recommend and sell.
We can repair the kayak you bought from us and get you back on the water.
Just like for the last 50 years, we can phone our rep (a real live person in the USA)
at Old Town, Perception, Wilderness Systems, Jackson or Bonafide and easily get service and parts for you.
We get calls all the time from people trying to find parts for those "unique" box
store kayaks, unfortunately parts are just not available, anywhere.
What will you do WHEN your seat, footbrace or backrest BREAKS ?
You can't even get a cockpit cover or spray skirt to fit them.
We call
them "white elephants"; cheap box store kayaks which turn out to be a
costly mistake and provide a hobby of frustration rather than fun."
For 50 years Oak Orchard Canoe Kayak Experts has proven that you can see ALL the best brands in one place
PLUS... on-site warranty, on-site repairs, in stock parts AND... lessons, rentals, free try-before-you
buy
AND... knowledgeable sales people that spend the time to help you buy
the right kayak the first time.

Expression 11.5 with skeg
OK, so paddling a kayak sounds pretty cool right? Ever try one? Not as easy as you thought it would be?
What if you just tried the WRONG size? The Expression is designed for small to medium people and EASY to paddle!
Did you know that Most recreation kayaks are VERY poorly sized for such a person.
Excess width and depth of such a craft makes it more difficult for smaller folks to paddle properly or easily.
Notice the way this young lady fits in the Expression...
She is not wearing the kayak way up to her chest, its nice and low, and much easier for her to paddle a distance.
The keyhole cockpit make entry and exit a breeze, while the lower profile around the cockpit helps her reach the water easilly with the paddle.
Features:
A Retractable skeg system makes tracking super easy, even in the wind.
Our Deluxe Zone Seat system is one of the best you'll find for adjustability and comfort.
A large oval storage compartment with a sealed bulkhead add Safety and convenient dry storage.
