I guess it depends on what kind of folding kayak you buy. There are some low-end folding models out there, but the one’s I’m most familiar with, the PakBoats folding kayaks, should last a decade or more. There may be some small repairs along the way, but with adequate care and minor abuse, they’ve been known to last 10 years or more. They don’t feel ‘flimsy” in the water either, maybe a little ‘light’ but solid. KayakGuy CanoeFan,

I've never used a folding canoe or kayak, but they always look a little flimsy to me. Do you know how long folding kayaks last, ciompared to inflatables?
