This sporty low volume British-style Touring Kayak is Current Designs'
newest composite kayak. Renowned kayak designer Derek Hutchinson
worked closely with Brian Henry and the Current Designs design team
to create this scaled down version of the highly successful Gulfstream
kayak.
At 16' long and 22" wide, this sleek boat performs best with
a paddler under 170 lbs. The nicely detailed cockpit and seating
area, along with the low stern deck design, allows the paddler easy,
safe movement and control when performing rolls or advanced maneuvers.
It is outfitted with a retractable skeg, which gives the kayak stiffer
tracking when deployed. The skeg can simply be lifted to allow quick
and easy maneuverability. This eye-catching craft is efficiently
detailed with full deck rigging and recessed deck fittings, and
has three self-sealing rubber hatches (in addition to the forward
and rear hatches, a separate small day hatch behind the cockpit
offers convenient day storage). This sporty, performance Touring Kayak
is lively and fun to paddle.
