BethS Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) Where are people going these days to get repairs done on their kayaks (if like me they are too clueless/lazy to do it themselves). Nothing too fancy, I just need a fiberglass keel strip installed and a skeg and cable (and possibly the cable casing ) replaced. Is Carl Ladd still in this business ? I know he sold Osprey a while back. Suggestions? Update, it sounds like Carl Ladd is still in business, Yay!

Clayton Kern Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Don't want to toot my own horn too loudly but we also do repairs in the shoulder seasons as well. We have worked on a few members boats in the past from new cables, new seals, to fiberglass and plastic repairs and welding. https://www.northshoreadventure.com/outdoor-center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need a keel strip, Carl's your man. He put my FG keel strip on my NDK PilgrimLV 11 years ago and it's still going strong. Carl did some repairs on my husband's Valley AvocetLV years ago, and a FG keel strip probably16 years ago, and, except for scratches etc, it's in great shape.
