Excellent Clearance Savings!
PakBoat Arrow Factory Second Clearance!
The Pakboats Arrow series was supposed to be upgraded Puffins with fancier materials and graphics. That may still happen, but the first effort hit a snag. While the boats looked sharp, the polyurethane hull fabric had problems. In the end, PakBoats had to return to the factory most of the Arrows they received. The intent was to get the material problem corrected and get the boats back with new hull material.
Unfortunately, the fabric issue is still not solved, and it became clear that with the recent improvements to the Puffin line, the original Arrows were in danger of becoming obsolete. So PakBoats decided to have the returned Arrows refurbished with new PVC skins. Unfortunately, the story does not end there. The Arrow replacements were made with a hull fabric that shrinks a little with time, and the hulls have more wrinkles than they should have.
So the decision was made to simply sell the boats as factory seconds. The two models available are the Arrow A12FS (size and shape like the Puffin Kayak 12) and the Arrow DoubleFS (size and shaped like the Puffin II). They are completely functional boats, but not quite as “pretty”. Because the sides tend to shrink a little, the bottoms develop some wrinkles - which will be a concern if you are racing.
The Arrow A12 FS has a Gray hull with your choice of a Red or Yellow deck. Or you can purchase the A12 FS without a deck resulting in an $80 discount (Total Price = $585.00). Every PakBoat comes with a pump, repair kit, storage/carry bag and instructions.
