I recently picked up a couple of older Current Designs boats (a Gulfstream and a Solstice GT), and they came with a couple of accessories that I’m not 100% sure about. I’m a canoe guy at heart, and most of my kayak seat time was in WW boats, so forgive my ignorance! I’m assuming they are means for holding a spare paddle on your deck without beating up either your paddle or your deck, but I’ve never actually seen one in use. They have velcro tabs at all 4 corners, and the smaller end has a velcro strip that can be used to make a sort of pocket at the end.
Anyone ever use one (or even seen one in use)? Thanks!
Not a sock as it’s a single layer of neoprene. The guy I got them from didn’t really have any ideas. This is my best guess, although they don’t seem to work great with a wing.
As it has a brand name on it why not just call or email Current Designs rather than guessing. You might have to email them a picture since it’s not in their current catalog.
I think it’s one of those ideas that never really caught on.
Paddle pants…is what they call the current thing for doing that. I put them on my 17 ft Sea kayak. Real nice except I couldn’t reach far enough forward to get the paddle pieces. What ever that is I’d store it with the pants in a box in the garage…somewhere.
