Kestrel 140 R with Rudder
The Kestrel 140 R trades just a little bit of maneuvering ability for increased efficiency, better tracking, greater stability, and gear storage capacity. A generously sized cockpit and Current Designs Revolution Seating System offer all day comfort. The Kestrel 140 R also sports a bow hatch and bulkhead allowing for plenty of storage and increased safety.
Great to keep at the cabin for the family, the Kestrel 140 R is perfect for the all around outdoorsmen as well. With the extra storage it can hold all the gear and tackle a float fisherman may need. Flattened side decks allow for easy rod holder mounting. And because it's made of polyethylene, it'll stand up to the shallow rocky river stretches without worry.
- Recreational Cockpit
- The Kestrel features recreational cockpits that are long enough that you can simply get in and sit down. They are un-restrictive and many new paddlers appreciate their roominess and versatility.
- Revolution Seating System
- This one-of-a-kind rotating axis seat gives unmatched full contact under-leg support. Quickly adjustable with a lever-lock system, you can customize the seats position for your personal paddling style and comfort level. Contoured plush foam padding cover the bottom and sides of the seat allowing for hours of luxurious paddling comfort.
- Dimension Adjustable Seat Back
- A fully articulating and height/angle adjustable back rest. This dynamic combination creates the most comfortable and ergonomically functional seating system ever seen.
- Flip Lock Rear Hatch Cover
- A simple and easy flip-to-open rear hatch cover makes storing your gear a breeze. The flip-locks and compression seal combine to make this cover very water resistant while keeping your gear readily accessible with just the flip of the levers.
Design Features:
- Swede Form: Widest behind the cockpit with a cleaner, longer, and more slender entry, giving efficient touring speeds and maneuverability. 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” hull shape improves tracking, has a lively feel and delivers very comfortable stability.
