Klepper Aerius Ii Folding Kayak Wooden Frame

This is a complete vintage Klepper Aerius II frame in very good vintage condition. I have used this kayak for at least 25 years until last summer when the skin became unusable and I ended up purchasing a new kayak, so this frame is for sale. It has normal wear, some areas may need a little varnish, but there are no repairs and no damage. While this is a vintage frame, many people aren’t aware that if taken care of such a frame can easily last 50 to 100 years and that IS a reality! The design is time-proven and tested and so much so that the design has been left unchanged and modern skins are readily available from Klepper America or Long Haul, so buying this and getting a new skin or a good used one for that matter will save you thousands and you will sacrifice absolutely nothing in terms or performance or structural integrity!

If you get a skin this summer, you can paddle or sail this summer; you don’t need to do anything else and over the winter if you want to look at details, that is a good time to do that…as I have. I bought new bags for this kayak a couple years ago, so if I come across the old ones I’ll include them, but for now, please understand that this listing is for one frame only. The boat picture is a few years old and shows seats, but the seats were modified with updated molded seats and backs which at this time are NOT included, so again, frame ONLY. I will pack properly and ship fully insured to a reasonable buyer that has at least 40 good, thoughtful feedbacks in the “Left for others” category. Shipping is in contiguous US states only.
