How is an Eddyline manufactured?Updated 3 months ago

First, each laminate sheet of Carbonlite is heated until it is pliable . Then using vacuum suction, we form each sheet over a custom mold that shapes the sheet into the deck or hull of a kayak which is then cut and trimmed to size.  We use the same process to form and trim the seat bases, seat backs, bulkheads, and coamings of our sit-inside kayaks.  The kayak decks are rigged with deck ties, decklines, bungees, hatch rings and coamings.  The decks and hulls are fused together with a chemical weld and bulkheads are installed in our sit inside boats.  The kayaks get outfitted with their foot braces, soft goods (seat pads and back pads), and hatch covers.  A thorough cleaning and quality control inspecition is the last step before each kayak is packaged for delivery.  You can see the process in our facility tour video.
