The couple paddles their 57 year-old Klepper and the passion for Klepper folding kayaks passed on to Arthur by his parents, has been transmitted to their son Ingo. Arthur and Maria work with Ingo, a professional underwater photographer and Klepper Folding Kayak dealer, at Marlin Marine in West Arichat, Cape Breton.
