Pouch
RZ 85 (built approx. 1972). I got it as a present in 1997. I
have been infected by the folding kayak virus, since. |
| Adaitsimut | KTW
E 65. Built approx. 1955 by the precedessor of Pouch. It is still
amazingly strong and both frame and skin don't show any sign of weekness.
Adaitsimut (say Adaatsimoot) is a word of a Greenlandic dialect and stands for "forwards together". |
| Qajaq | Gesa Moell (Möll) greenlandic style folding kayak. This kayak has been built in the 1960's as a white water touring kayak. It had been advertised in classifieds. The frame is still in a wonderful shape but the skin needs to be replaced. |
