Oru Bay+ Foldable Kayak

If you live in a concrete jungle yet dream of weekends spent paddling your way down the river with the sun at your back, Oru’s Bay+ Kayak might be just what you’re looking for.

The original Oru made headlines for being foldable, but the Bay+ ups the ante with a host of new features designed to boost user comfort and convenience. There’s a fully adjustable, ergonomic seat and high-position backrest, screw-out deck hatch and water-resistant stowing bag for all your stuff, stainless steel ratchet buckles for smooth and easy assembly, two extra rubber deck straps for gear storage and open-water rescues, and some new graphics that add a little pizazz. Plus the whole thing still folds up into your hatchback for your trip back to the city. Not too shabby. [Purchase]
