OUR HISTORY
Connect Kayaks was established in 2014 by current owner Gonçalo Mota in municipality of Amarante, Portugal.
As a student of Mechanical Engineering with an innate passion for paddling and paddling craft, it was only a matter of time before the stars aligned and Connect Kayaks was born. Gonçalo had previously spent time developing a foundation of knowledge and skill for boat construction working for other manufacturers. As his passion for designing and constructing paddling craft grew Gonçalo began to realise that his future happiness lied in starting his own business, sharing the joy his craft brought him with his customers.
Connect Kayaks has developed into one of the world’s most respected manufacturers. Every design and construction detail is considered and continually improved to ensure Connect Kayaks remains at the forefront of paddling craft manufacturers.
Connect Kayaks is proud of the business it has become but even more proud of the athletes that represent us on the water; without the athletes we are worthless. It is for this reason Connect Kayaks will always put the athlete first!
