Built for L/XL paddlers, the Sandpiper 130 has a 28 inch beam and a big 48 by 22 inch cockpit that makes entry and exit easy and leaves room for a dog or small passenger. Carbonlite construction keeps the weight down. The removable Cloud 10 framed seat doubles as a camp chair, and dual bulkheads with two watertight hatches add dry storage and flotation.
