The Illinois Watercraft Title shows it was a 1999 model year. I purchased from the original owner in 2009, who had purchased it in 2001 but used only a few times. I used less than 10 times per year (none last year and twice so far this year). I love the boat on the water but as a solo kayaker, the length has become a bit difficult to manage off the water. Apparently Current Designs has discontinued this model (no idea why) but the last I saw, the retail was $3,499 + $150 for the compass.
All stickers are still intact on the boat including the original delivery barcode sticker on the edge of the cockpit.Condition:Blue deck looks very good to excellent with only a few marks (no deep scratches).Cockpit looks in excellent condition.The only hatch I ever opened is the day hatch so assume all 3 are like new.Cream hull does have some typical scratches from launching, hitting underwater trees, etc. There is one place (pictured) where the paint has been rubbed at the very bow bottom of the hull. There is also an approximately 6" long scratch (pictured) where the paint appears to be cracked but does not look to compromise the fiberglass. It has been there for at least a few years with no issues of it expanding.Cockpit cover included.

/ MSRP $3,499 USD 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. 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. Shallow V: The “V” shape improves tracking, has a lively feel and delivers very comfortable stability. 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.
