You can use the classical double seater Alu-2 kayak to travel on the inland water, such as rivers, lakes and water reservoirs. It is perfectly suitable both for a weekend camping trip and for long-distance autonomous trips. Streamlined shape makes the kayak fast, controllable and directionally stable.

If you wish, you can equip your kayak with an additional seat for short trips or camping trips with a child, and having bought a Transformer kit, you can easily transform your Alu-2 into a single or triple seater, while saving funds and storage space.

NERIS Alu-2 is a unique framed kayak-transformer. If you have an Alu-2 kayak, you can easily get a single seater NERIS Alu-1 or a triple seater NERIS Alu-3 with minimum investment. The kayak's module structure allows to transform the models using the Transformer kit - the skin and the extra frame pieces of the respective models, which is up to 70% cheaper than the cost of a complete kayak.

Here you can find detailed information on transforming the Alu series kayaks.

Features of the NERIS Alu-2 model:

  • The kayak's design is simple and reliable, it's easy to assemble and has no fragile plastic frame fasteners;
  • In the center of the kayak there is a big storage compartment;
  • It is supplied with practical inflatable seats;
  • The kayak is packed into a lightweight and durable rucksack with adjustable shoulder straps and a hip belt;
  • The rucksack's dimensions are 45х25х110 cm, upon request the kayak can be packed into two rucksacks (one for the skin and one for the frame).
  • Alu-2 has closed Duralumin cross ribs with stainless steel stringer supports, which significantly increases its reliability, durability and useful life;
  • The skin is made of hard-wearing marine grade PVC fabric, the hull has special protector strips fitted along all of the chines that are formed by the stringers and the keel bar;
  • Practical carrying handles;
  • The kayak can optionally be equipped with the third seat to accommodate a child;
  • The kayak can be used as a single seater for long solo expeditions with more cargo;

  • With no inflatable balloons the boat has more available storage;
  • Cast bracket on the stern to mount the rudder;
