I don't see any repair kits on Backcountry. This boat does come with a repair kit. If you are looking to repair an Aire or Tributary boat then repairing on the seam shouldn't be too hard. With these two types of boats there is an air bladder that is wrapped in the outer layer of polyurethane material. So the outer layer isn't what holding the air in the boat. You could probably sew the seam back up and use some repair material to cover it an it should hold for you. If you have another brand of kayak it is substantially more difficult to repair a seam because it has to be air tight. Personally i would try to find a company that specializes in raft repair and pay them to do it. A Google search for whitewater raft repair may get you going in the right direction.
