Oru Kayak warranty for kayaks & paddleboards
The short version
Oru Kayak doesn't cover everything, but keeps whole kayak covered to 3 years. That full coverage is the same as most of the 13 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Oru Kayak's published warranty, checked October 2026.
