Enjoy the Satisfaction of Building a Boat With a Youngster

Kidyak
A 9' kid sized kayak
Build in Stitch & Glue Plywood

Share This Page!


The KIDYAK is a 9' kid's kayak. It's compact and light, about 20 lbs. It'll sink in the water 3" when the gross weight with boat is about 100 lbs., and it's safe; two watertight compartments provide plenty of flotation.

The KIDYAK is easy and inexpensive to build, and requires only a single panel of plywood. Inexpensive 1/8" luan "door skin" plywood was used on the prototype, although 1/4" fir is optional.

Building is quick and easy with the Stitch and Glue building method, and the Glen-L Full Sized Patterns are furnished for every part in the boat. Patterns are also included to make your own double bladed paddle.

Why wait? Start now and give your special kid a fun boat of their own.
