The Rio 140 is the top performer in Eddyline’s rec lineup, with a hard-chine hull that tracks well and turns easily. It is built from Carbonlite and weighs 45 lbs. A sliding Infinity Seat System, thigh braces, hip and thigh pads, adjustable foot braces and two 10 inch hatches with bulkheads equip it for day trips and Class I to II rivers.
