I have paddled the Storm and I own a Squall. The Storm felt like a big
boat designed for big trips on big water. The Squall is lighter and
more nimble, still carries a lot of gear, and seems to relish rough
conditions. We also own a Current Designs Sirocco, which I'm learning
to appreciate the more my skills develop. My wife love the Squall and
rarely wants to trade boats. Does this help?

I'm curious what people think of the Squall or Storm from Current Designs.
I'm looking for a new sea kayak which will be used mainly in the Great Lakes
area as well as on other large local lakes and rivers (Wisconsin, Illinois
mainly). It may occasionally make a trip to the ocean, financese permitting.

I'm 5'11" 175 pounds, so I'm leaning a bit more towards the Squall, but it
all depends on fit.
