Established in 1966 Kirton Kayaks is now co-directed by cousins Ben Turner and Matt Cockram. Back in his racing days, Jim was supported by Kirton co-founder Dave Green as a works paddler.

We continue to collaborate closely with the Kirton team, benefiting from their unique experience, skill and expertise to research and trial new materials, and use cutting edge techniques to design new craft. Kirton continue as the UK's leading designers and manufacturers of sea kayaks, racing craft and most recently surfskis.
