The Lake is Oru’s smallest and most portable model, and it assembles in a few minutes without tools. At 32 in wide it is stable for its size and beginner-friendly. It uses the same durable material as Oru’s expedition boats and fits in a back seat, trunk or plane. It is best on lakes, slow rivers and protected bays.
