John is spot on. BKC(and others) are literally just importing kayaks from alibaba, marking them up and selling them to you. They've been around a while and seem to have been successful at marketing and sales. I don't see too many people on the water with them or have any feedback to how they've held up. What I do know is buying these chinese knockoffs undercuts the innovators in the market and when they don't make money, things change from innovate to win to innovate to survive and their budgets for r and d slowly tighten. Buying a used yak designed and built in North America, keeps the money state side.
