The Oru Inlet’s design is all about ease and simplicity. A single sheet of 
double-layered polypropylene forms the hull and deck of the assembled 
kayak, and transforms into the box. The overlapping flaps that form the 
deck make for ultra fast assembly and the open cockpit gives you plenty

of room. Internal bulkheads and an integrated floorboard adds strength.
The adjustable seat and footrest let you paddle in comfort. All of the loose 
parts fit into the Oru Inlet box.

WARNING

DO NOT exceed your boat’s 

 capacity under any circumstances. 

Doing so will adversely 

affect the kayak’s handling 

and reduce its stability, 

which will increase the chance 

of capsizing or swamping. 

Make sure loads are 

distributed as evenly as 

possible, with heavier items 

on the bottom and 

lighter ones on top.
