It's fun, playful and pure magic.
When Current Designs' head designer Brian Henry saw and paddled
the Caribou , he was so impressed that he asked its designer, Barry
Buchanan if he would like Current Designs to produce his kayak.
We are very proud to include Barry's wonderful kayak design in the
Current Designs family. The Caribou is best described
as a modified Greenland design with a narrow, hard chine hull and
a low deck profile. This shallow vee, hard chine hull design offers
unusually high stability. The narrow beam and the low deck offer
reduced windage and a sporty appeal.
The Caribou features a clean deck arrangement with
flush hatches fore and aft. Recessed deck fittings accommodate full
deck rigging and safety perimeter lines. The seat comes with a comfortably
padded backband. The easy to enter cockpit is molded with padded
thigh braces shaped to fit a wide range of paddler sizes.
The skeg is standard on the Caribou and when deployed,
allows this nimble craft to track harder when in adverse conditions.
A long, narrow craft with a clean appearance and a gracefully sweeping
sheer line, the Caribou displays its performance bred
heritage by its very presence. The Caribou is fast,
nimble, and a pure joy to paddle.
