Where are Vibe kayaks manufactured?
Our premium kayaks are designed and engineered in Kennesaw, GA and manufactured in China. Speed and Efficiency: In general, lightweight kayaks tend to be faster and more efficient to paddle, especially over short to medium distances. Their lighter weight means they can glide through the water with less effort, making them perfect for leisurely day trips or weekend paddling adventures.If you’re into touring, you’ll want a kayak that’s longer and narrower because they’re built for speed. If you’re more into casual kayaking, a medium-sized kayak, also known as a recreational kayak, is a good choice. And if you’re interested in navigating whitewater, you’ll need a shorter kayak.Shorter kayaks are lighter, less cumbersome, are easier to transport, generally offer good primary stability, and are often less expensive.Lifetime Kayaks are equipped with scupper holes that help water drain from the kayak.

How many years do kayaks last?
Modern inflatable kayaks will easily last 7-10 years with proper care, similar to the life of an inflatable dinghy. However, this depends on good maintenance. If you don’t take care of your kayak, it will not last more than 2 years in extreme cases. Bottom line: 6-12 years is a pretty typical range for the life span of a kayak. That’s a huge range, you might say. And yes, that is true. An inflatable kayak might last you only a half dozen years; however, a well-maintained, quality kayak can last twice that or much longer – even a lifetime.This depends, of course, on how well the kayak is maintained. On average, however, you can expect it to last 12-15 years.Composite kayaks are very easy to store, generally due to their cost, in a warm covered storage. They are UV coated for long life span and do require roof rack transport. Generally the lifespan from shortest to longest is HDPE for a 5+ years, ABS for 10-15 years, Fiberglass for 10-15 years and Composite for 15+ years.
