However, there is a Feathercraft Replacement Parts Shop This is a limited parts shop and is definitely a “cottage industry” – literally working out of the basement. We are not be able to make all parts for all models. Parts for kayaks made prior to year 2000 are not available. Before you send a parts email inquiry, here is what we will need to know: – kayak model and year of manufacture. Just provide us with the serial number that is located on the stern deck near the rudder mount. – Send a photo of the part that you want. If you have lost the part, you can refer to the assembly instructions online to describe the part. – To ship an order, your complete address as well as a contact phone number is required by any shipping service. – email inquiries to: info@feathercraft.com Please remember — I am on the water or off somewhere quite a bit of the time, including winter. Allow some time for a response. Thanks, Doug Simpson ———————————————————— COMPLETE RUDDERS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND ARE NOT BEING MADE. Limited rudder components (pulley wheels, rudder blocks with stainless steel pin) will be available for order. December 2016 Feathercraft has now permanently stopped making folding kayaks, rafts and accessories. Due to a number of factors, including poor economic conditions, changing lifestyles, flight baggage restrictions and increasing costs, we have found that making our premium kayaks is no longer financially viable. We will miss the incredible feedback and adventure stories that we have received over the years. I personally will miss these customers, our many suppliers, and also my dedicated colleagues who have helped make our beautiful boats. Thank you all for your tremendous support over these past 40 years. Everything has a beginning……..and an end. Sincerely Yours, Doug Simpson Founder and Principal Owner ……………………………………………………………… Questions about vintage models , care or assembly ? Check Resources for assembly instructions, and FAQ for care and maintenance, and other helpful tips. …………………………………………………………….. Why Folding? It’s not just that it folds into a backpack . You become part of the environment with a skin on frame kayak. You are not separate from the water, but joined. The skin responds actively to the changing sea conditions. From the gentle undulation of a calm day, to a storm’s fury, wave energy is absorbed, and the kayak flows through surges and swells, protecting you. The real question is, why NOT folding? …………………………………………………………….. Can’t make it to our shop? Here’s a virtual visit.
