Item Description

Like its namesake, a small falcon who flies with uncanny efficiency, this attractive addition to the Current Designs product line has purpose. The Kestrel is comfortable enough to use for exercise while providing a reliable platform from which to fish, take photos, observe wildlife or simply enjoy a relaxing jaunt.

Short trips are enhanced by its generous cockpit for ease of entry and exit. The paddler is provided with ultimate comfort and stability, while the wide cushioned seat and adjustable back rest offer hours of relaxing kayaking. Gear has a place in the Kestrel's surprisingly large rear hatch.

This is a straight-tracking, easy to turn kayak that elevates the term "recreational" to a new level. In cabin country or urban centers the Kestrel has a distinct place.

Kestrels come fully outfitted with reflective perimeter lines, restrained toggles, left and right fishing rod holder platforms and recessed paddle parks, front and rear hatch and bulkhead, and complete fore and aft deck rigging with paddle float rescue capability.

The Kestrel 140 is outfitted with a generous cockpit, comfortable thigh braces and a padded high-back seat. The Kestrel's bow hatch and bulkhead has a recessed round hatch with a rigid cover for a smooth deckline to reduce spray. A rudder is included on this boat, bringing the retail price to $1999.95.
