| This may be the best paddling inflatable kayak in it's price and size range. Amazing quality, very durable materials,Comfortable, easy to set up and inflate, light and compact and paddles well. This one is for smaller people and I think the listed 300 pound capacity is not realistic for most paddling. If you are not more than 5'8 or so and not more than bout 175 pounds this kayak will probably fit you well. A five foot five inch, 140 pound athletic woman fit in one very nicely. Don't take a chance, come over and try it on. | ||||||

Kayaks are available in several kinds of materials and with different construction methods: Composite kayaks are made from fiberglass, kevlar and graphite in different combinations. Fiberglass, is very durable and makes a strong and economical kayak. Kevlar is lighter and very tough so less needs to be used to make a strong and very durable kayak. Graphite is even lighter than kevlar and is used in strategic locations on some models. Plastic, Super Compound Linear Polyethylene, (SCL) is extremely tough and durable. It is used in the rotomolded models. Cuts or breaks are so rare I have never seen one, even on white water boats. UV inhibitors are blended in to protect from the sun. This is the most economical durable material Current Designs kayaks are built with. The down side is a little bit of flex and a bit more extra weight. Thermoformed Composite System (TCS). These are made from an Acrylic and ABS plastic laminate. This plastic is stiffer and lighter than SCL polyethylene. It has the look and light weight of a fiberglass kayak, but costs less. For a more in depth description of these materials the Current Designs web site, or a catalog will help. Also feel free to contact us. |
