We have here for sale, my wife's Tarpon 120 Wilderness Systems sit-on-top kayak. In an excellent condition and hardly used, a few inevitable scratches, hard to photograph but wholly like new. Known for offering excellent glide, stability and manoeuvrability, and great versatility for its trim size and made in the UK. (This was a great first kayak for her due to its stability, she has moved on to a smaller sit on top kayak), so making this obsolete for us, just hadn't had the heart to sell it! A picture tells a thousand words and hopefully the pictures listed should give it justice, this kayak also has great write ups and reviews if you wish to read more about it.
(see below). We used it on rivers and lakes, but as you know it is one of the favoured fishing kayaks too, with accessories easily available. Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 - ReviewThe Tarpon 120 has established itself as one of the most popular sit on top touring kayaks out there. This kayak has just the right mix of speed, stability and comfort for heading out for a days paddling. The efficient yet moderately stable hull offers a slick ride through even choppy seas - perfect for exploring the coast and accessing secluded beaches and bays.
You can be sure of comfort with the integrated AirPro seating system, offering plenty of adjustment in the backrest and seat section. Paired up the fitted adjustable footrests you can achieve a good posture for efficient paddling. The hatch covers are hinged, so you'll never lose them and they have an easy twist locking mechanism to open and close them securely. The footwells are smooth for comfort if you wish to move up on to your knees and access the front hatch. There is a good sized rear storage area for dry bags, fishing gear or snorkelling equipment.
You can fit two flush mounted rod holders just behind the seating position to turn the Tarpon 120 into a fishing kayak, or if you don't want to drill into your boat, then use the revolutionary Slide Trax to add rod holders. The Slide Trax are fitted flush into the hull where you can slide your track mounted rod holders, fish finder mounts or anything else. Wilderness Systems provide a Mounting Plate for an easy fit or other accessory track mounts are available. A great option for a wide range of paddlers wanting a sit on top touring kayak. This Kayak is kept inside and out of the sun, always washed, cleaned and rinsed after every use.
