Brian Henry, Founder

Brian Henry founded Current Designs almost twenty years ago out of a deep passion for kayaking. Growing up on Canada's West Coast with its deep fjords and vast island archipelagos Brian was drawn to its sheer natural beauty and became an avid kayaker.
Brian's creative talents really emerged when he decided to design a new wave of kayaks for today's paddler. The rediscovery of kayak touring around the world has been inspired by the artistry and innovation of Brian Henry and others like him.

Current Designs' voyage in development has been an exciting one and has drawn us beyond the horizons of innovation and design. Current Designs has been sought out by some of the best kayak designers in the world to bring their designs to life for this ever-changing market. Such respected names as the legendary British designer Derek Hutchinson, Barry Buchanan, a well-known New England designer, and Olympic Champion Greg Barton, have all worked with the Current Designs design team. As a result, Current Designs has become one of the most diverse and sought after line of touring kayaks available anywhere.
