Current Designs Deck Lines

Advice
#1

Anybody know if Current Designs reflective deck lines are 4mm or 5mm? I know it’s not much of a difference, but I need to know. On the same note - their deck bungees 4mm or 5mm?



Thanks everyone!

Why not ask them?
One quick phone call and you’ll have your answer.

ask for the Accessories Dept.
Dial the main number, and request the Accessories Dept.



Jeremy Smith is the manager.



He came thru bigtime for me in expediting a set of the newer hatchstraps for my Suka - delivery on the road, while I was in the Upper Peninsula at symposium.

thanks!
Hi all,



I did contact CD today per bnystrom’s advice. I didn’t originally because in the past I have left voice messages and emails and have got no response for a couple weeks so I thought I might get a faster response here.



Today was different - fast response! Just an FYI the perimeter lines are 5mm and the bungees are 3/16" with the exception of the middle bungee, which is 1/4"



Thanks again all.

They make the best deck line and bungee I’ve seen.

Apparently you need to call them.
The sites been “coming soon” for a while - but everyone claims they’re incredibly helpful.



Sadly, I just dislike the phone.

They ARE very helpful
It’s certainly worth a call, even for the “phone phobic”.

Anyone know how much deck line length is needed for the back deck of a Current Designs Cypress kayak? Basically the boat’s length is 17’.

Also, does it matter if I buy 4mm or 5mm?

Since Current Designs was just sold, I’m not sure who to call regarding this. I’m hoping you all will know the answers to the deck line questions!!

Thank you everyone!

Diameter generally only matters if the larger size will not fit under the existing hardware. The larger size will obviously be stronger, but take into account if there are multiple lines under one fastener point.

For total length, just take some string and route it the way you want the bungees or deck lines to go. Measure the total length, and for deck line just add a foot or two. For bungees, since they will be stretched, you can just use the actual length of the string.
