About Me
I have paddled canoes for decades and recently bought Current Designs VISION 150 kayak.
Pros / The Good
The VISION 150 tracks well, is comfortable, and stable
Cons / The Bad
IT'S MADE IN CHINA! My husband and 2 friends just bought Current Designs kayaks: Solstice, Willow and Suka. I bought the Vision 150. My boat has a leak into the aft hatch via the rudder cable that starts in the cockpit. On a more aesthetic note: its registration number is scratched in by hand -- barely visible/legible -- which I discovered only after looking for a while. The boat will be repaired and the customer service rep at Current Designs was apologetic and helpful; but I thought I should warn anyone considering the VISION 150 that it is manufactured in China as this information is not on CD's website and CD does not make that information obvious. Perhaps any boat could have a problem but it's curious that out of the four boats that we bought mine is the one that has a problem.
