www.cdkayak.com f o The Story The West Coast of British Columbia is wild, beautiful, and home to some of the best sea kayaking on the planet. Adventurous explorers had long been using sea kayaks as the craft of choice to travel these magnificent waters when Brian Henry started paddling the coastal waterways. But Brian was a visionary, and as time went by, he saw the need for better boats and equipment for true kayak enthusiasts. It was at this moment in the late 1970’s Current Designs was born. Brian started small, as most boat builders do, designing and building kayaks to enable his friends and him to better explore these waters. Brian quickly became well known locally for his kayaking trips and paddling skills. In 1981 he took his passion a step further by opening Ocean River Sports, a specialty store on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, in Victoria, B.C. This small retail shop formed the foundation for launching Current Designs to the world. Brian Henry, founder of Current Designs. Brian's first production kayaks were designed and built in early 1982 with the introduction of the Pisces and Equinox. These models were pure West-coast cruisers and became the cornerstone of the Current Designs brand. In 1984 Brian introduced the Solstice kayak family. These boats were a unique blend of North American and European design that were visually appealing, functional, comfortable, and extremely efficient. The Solstice family was extremely successful and to this day is the flag ship line for Current Designs. As the market for sea kayaks grew, new designs, refinements and quality improvements became necessary. Campbell Black, a plastics specialist, became a major working partner in the company and under his leadership, production techniques and quality assurance improved. New models were introduced through partnerships with world famous designers. Legendary British kayaker Derek Hutchinson teamed with Current Designs to produce such great kayaks as the Gulfstream, Slipstream, and Andromeda. New England-based kayak designer Barry Buchanan partnered with Current Designs to manufacture his famous hard chined kayak, the Caribou. Most recently Nigel Foster and Current Designs brought the Rumour to the world's waters. s k a y a K Rotomolded polyethylene kayak production was quickly added to Current Designs’ manufacturing repertoire. These rugged kayaks introduced the Current Designs brand to first-time buyers, outfitters and rental operations at amazingly affordable prices. The success of these rotomolded kayaks flowed directly from the designs of their composite sisters. Continuous research and development in design, materials and manufacturing techniques helped maintain Current Designs promise of quality, innovation and performance. As the popularity of kayaking boomed, Current Designs applied their expertise to develop a recreational kayak family, the Kestrels. The Kestrels set the standard for what is possible in a recreational kayak by delivering paddling efficiency and comfort in innovative, light weight constructions. These super-stable crafts are responsible for unlocking the thrill of kayaking to many thousands world wide. In another manufacturing first, Current Designs introduced the light weight Vision family of transitional kayaks in 2008. Together with their sea kayak sisters, the Visions and Kestrels broadened Current Designs into the fullest and finest line of kayaks ever produced. In 1991, Wenonah Canoe, Inc., the leading American manufacturer of composite canoes, was selected as the strategic partner to distribute Current Designs kayaks in the United States. The synergy between the companies was immediately evident, both companies produced the highest quality paddling products and were passionate about their products and paddling. Wenonah Canoe became the majority owner of Current Designs in 1999. Mike Cichanowski, owner of Current Designs and Wenonah Canoe. Soon after, Wenonah Canoe completed the acquisition and in 2004 moved its home base to the small Mississippi River town of Winona, MN. Today, Current Designs and its parent company Wenonah Canoe continue to operate with the same values that trace back to their first boats; innovation, superior construction, performance, and extraordinary service. dition Rich in Tra Photos of the early days at Current Designs in Victoria Canada.

The of l al tion sitiona ing a e r r n c Re Tou Tra GoodBetter Best Efficiency: How easily the kayak glides through the water. GoodBetter Best Best BetterGood Tracking: How easily a kayak will keep going straight. Maneuverability: How easily the boat will turn. Length A longer boat will track straighter, glide further, and travel faster which makes long boats the most efficient. Length also adds to stability and capacity. A shorter boat is easier to handle and can be more maneuverable. GoodBetter Best Capacity: How much gear/weight the kayak can carry. Best BetterGood Initial Stability: Best BetterGood Final Stability: How tippy a boat feels when the kayak is at rest. How stable the kayak feels when tipped. Depth Depth is a key component of a good fit. A deeper hull will be roomier for paddlers with larger legs, and increases load carrying ability. A shallower hull will be less affected by wind, and may better fit small paddlers. Hull Shape We design hull shapes for the ideal combination of tracking, efficiency, agility, and seaworthiness based on the kayaks intended use. Many hulls are fairly complex and have different shapes blended together. Shallow Arch: These have good initial stability and are highly maneuverable. Width A wider kayak will be more stable than a narrow one. Conversely, a narrow kayak is usually more efficient than a wide one. A wider kayak may provide more stability for both heavier paddlers and tall paddlers with a higher center of gravity. A wider kayak will also enable a paddler to spread their legs out more. Shallow “V”: The “V” shape improves tracking, has a lively feel and delivers very comfortable stability. Shallow Arch Shallow "V" Hard Chine: A hard chine kayak has a well defined edge where the hull bottom meets the sides. This increases the initial stability greatly. Hard chines give defined edging angles and assist in holding an edge. Soft Chine: A smooth transition from the bottom of the hull to the sides. Soft chines give smooth edging at unlimited angles. The majority of kayaks that we build have a soft chine. Erin and Eric paddle a pair of rotomold Solaras on a sun filled summers day. Photo: Jake Greseth 7 Rocker The degree of curvature in the hull from bow to stern defines the rocker. More rocker improves the ability to maneuver the kayak, especially in rough water. A kayak with little or no rocker will track very well and travel efficiently, but may be more difficult to maneuver. We carefully control rocker to deliver the right combination of maneuverability, speed, and seaworthiness appropriate for each kayaks intended use. Form Swede Form: Widest behind the cockpit, Swede form has a cleaner, longer, and more slender entry, giving efficient touring speeds and maneuverability. In shorter lengths these kayaks are very responsive. Longer kayaks with this feature have amazing acceleration and track well. Because of the narrow bow they may punch through a steep wave, rather than ride over it. Swede Form: Widest behind the cockpit Fish Form: Widest ahead of the cockpit, Fish form kayaks have a more blunt entry but will have a more slender exit through the water. The bows typically have more flare and are usually more buoyant than others. This enables our shorter boats to be excellent surf zone kayaks. Longer kayaks benefit from this feature in large seas. Fish Form: Widest ahead of the cockpit A good "fit" improves performance and comfort. When choosing a kayak, a common phrase you’ll hear is “you don’t sit in a kayak, you wear it.” Like your favorite pair of jeans, a kayak that fits right will provide you with the comfort and control you desire. We list maximum load weights for each of our models, but don't publish recommended paddler sizes due to differences in physical proportions and paddling experience. The best way to find a kayak that fits you right is to get in and try it. Open Cockpit: The Solara's feature our largest open cockpits. These are very easy to get in and out of, and give a feeling of being almost completely free from the boat. Open cockpits have enough space to put gear between your legs for easy access. Keyhole Cockpit: A keyhole cockpit blends the openness of a recreational cockpit and the integrated thigh braces of a touring cockpit. The result is an easy to enter and exit cockpit that offers performance, fit, and solid connectivity to the kayak. Recreational Cockpit: The Kestrel's feature recreational cockpits that are long enough that you can simply get in and sit down. They are un-restrictive and many new paddlers appreciate their roominess and versatility. Touring Cockpit: Touring cockpits are somewhat small to help resist imploding of the spray skirt if hit by a large wave in rough water. They include built-in thigh braces on the cockpit rim to maximize control when edging and rolling. They range from 29” to 35” long, depending on the model. 8 cost. d n a al h t g n e n or rotation r t s , t h ite laminatio rength, durability, ig os p e m w co , um-bagged including weight, st Durability either vacu s y kayaks. ence factor actured by finest qualit are manuf ue benefits that influ duce the igns kayaks erials to pro iq Current Des methods provide un technologies and mat th d molding. Bo use the most advance e and price. W Rotational molding (rotomolding) uses a high temperature oven to melt polyethylene powder in a large rotating metal mold. This process produces a complete kayak hull and deck in a single step. Our rotomolded polyethylene models offer paddlers the ability to enjoy many of the unique benefits of our designs at an economical price. ene Polyethyl We’ve taken rotomolding to the next level with our own high-tech process controls to produce the lightest possible rotomolded kayaks. We use only linear high density polyethylene in all of our rotomolded models to maximize stiffness without sacrificing impact strength. Our polyethylene maintains its integrity over a broad temperature range and has added stabilizers giving it increased protection from harmful ultraviolet rays and oxidation. Our rotomolded kayaks are affordable, ultra tough, highly durable, and will hold up to more significant abuse compared to composite constructions.

Photo: Ariana Lindquist Vacuum-bagged composite lamination is the technology we chose over twenty years ago for its superior properties. Originally developed by the aerospace industry to manufacture ultra-light, strong components, we refined that same process to deliver the lightest, strongest, and most durable kayaks available. Today we are a recognized industry leader in this field. NEW ! Vacuum-bagged composite lamination uses vacuum to eliminate any excess resin, which improves strength and decreases weight. We also utilize 3-D non-woven core materials in specific places to reinforce and strengthen areas without adding any substantial weight. This hands-on labor intensive process results in light-weight, extraordinarily tough kayaks with an exquisite finish. Composite Seams All Current Designs composite kayaks have composite seams joining the deck and hull. This stronger and lighter technique of seaming was formerly available for an additional charge. Now, composite seams are our standard of excellence on all composite kayaks! Our vacuum-bagged fiberglass layup is a notch above most other fiberglass kayaks on the market. The result is a superbly crafted composite kayak that’s impeccably finished inside and out. Fiberglass is the standard layup for our Performance Touring models. We use genuine Dupont Kevlar® in our kayaks. You’ll notice the lightness of our Kevlar kayaks the first time you pick one up. You’ll also appreciate its easy lift on and off the car and its intimate responsiveness on the water. Kevlar is an optional layup for our Performance Touring models. Performance Touring - Fiberglass & Kevlar Smoke Magenta Yellow Mango Tangerine Caribbean Regatta Blue Lime Red Customize! Any of our nine colors can be used for a custom hull, coaming, or outside seam color by special order at no charge on any of our Performance Touring models. Get creative and make your kayak uniquely yours. Our composite hybrid kayaks are made from fiberglass, polyaramid and 3-D non-woven materials laminated together. These kayaks are stiff, light weight and durable for all but severe conditions and are very price conscious.
