Cadet Youth Kayak

This youth kayak was one of the last products I designed for Lifetime. It was an interesting kayak to work on because the final product needed to be able to easier and cheaper to drop ship directly through Amazon. This required a reduction in dimensions and weight while still keeping the kayak's performance. I created the CAD for this kayak and it an a great showcase of my CAD and surfacing abilities. 

The aspect of the design that I am most proud of are the subtle handholds in front of the swim up tankwell. Having the feature be in molded reduced the weight of of the kayak compared to a handhold that would need to be drilled.
