Kayak Parts and Repairs
With over 100 boats in the Atlantic Kayak Tours fleet we depend on many different products to keep all the equipment working and looking good. The Paddlesport Center offers a wide range of items to maintain and repair canoes, kayaks and other equipment. We don't only have the hardware, but also the knowledge to help you with needed repairs. If it can break we have had it break and had to repair it. Below are just a few of the items we stock. We also do repairs.
