Kayak Launching Dock Products Designed and Developed in Oriental, North Carolina

Al Privette, Founder & Designer

Get Kayaktive was founded by longtime paddler and outfitter, Al Privette. Get Kayaktive is located in Oriental, NC, a small village on the shores of the Neuse River and Pamlico Sound.

After extensive research and development, the highly acclaimed line of Get Kayaktive kayak launch dock products were born. We are also working on other neat and helpful products that have been patented and are in the queue.

Get Kayaktive offers a line of kayak launching patented equipment that makes moving and launching a kayak much easier. This is especially true for those who not only travel with their kayak but those who lack a beach to launch from. The YAK-A-LAUNCHERâ„¢ was built to help you get in and out of your kayak with ease. No more worrying about falling in the water. Our Roll-Aid helps you get your kayak in and out of the water without straining by just rolling your kayak in or out.

This ingenious system now makes kayaking a reality for those who thought they could not participate in this exciting sport. We take great care and pride in the precision and expertise through which these products are manufactured. We believe that once you experience how easy and safe launching your kayak can be, you’ll be exploring more waterways than ever before.
