The Tarpon 140 uses a flared hull that stays stable while still paddling fast and tracking straight. It has the Phase 3 AirPro seat, padded adjustable footrests, a large rear tankwell, an Orbix oval bow hatch and four SlideTrax accessory rails for rod holders or camera gear. It is a paddle kayak with no pedal drive.
