Hi All,

Does anyone know who is designing the Impex line of boats and where they are
being manufactured?

Thanks.

  Mariner Kayaks is listed as a dealer, maybe Matt can shed some light.

Rob,
I seem to have stopped paying attention to Impex recently, but I assume you 
are referring to the line of Formula kayaks that Impex imports (ie 
http://www.impexkayak.com/formulak/index.html). I would hazard a guess that 
these kayaks are from across the Atlantic, since Impex also imports 
Pyrahna, and since the lines look distinctively British. They seem like 
nice boats and I would like to see how they handle. Some of the designs 
have high sterns and I bet they use skegs. It seems there is a form to fill 
out which will send a question to Impex, so perhaps you could find the 
correct answer to your questions there 
(http://www.impexkayak.com/formulak/index.html). I also noticed that 
Mariner Kayaks is listed as an importer, which means they can't handle too 
much worse than a Mariner. ;-)
