BKC SK287 Angler Touring Kayak

Description

The BKC SK287 Angler Touring Kayak – 14.75-Foot Solo Distance is the perfect kayak for distance travel. It has everything an angler needs for the ultimate aquatic adventure, except for a reel, bait, and a bit of luck.

Our kayak comes fully loaded with a range of accessories. It includes an internal seat, adjustable aluminum paddle, pedal-operated rudder, 2 waterproof hatches, 2 flush mount rod holders, and 1 bungee cargo tie down. With all these accessories, you'll have everything you need for your next excursion.

This kayak is crafted for stability. It is made from roto molded single piece high-density polyethylene material, which is superior to inflatable kayaks. It is capable of handling any water conditions, whether it's the ocean, lake, or river. It can support up to 330 lbs, providing a sturdy and reliable experience.

The BKC SK287 features built-in fishing rod holders and rudder control. The pair of flush-mount fishing rod holders keep your fishing poles out of the way during paddling. The foot pedal-operated rudder provides ultimate control in all water conditions, allowing you to steer around obstacles or through chop without paddle steering required.

With the BKC SK287, you don't have to worry about water-resistant storage. It has dual watertight storage hatches, ensuring all your valuables stay dry. There is also a large cargo area in the rear with a bungee cord, perfect for holding all your fishing stuff and outdoor gear.

Now, let's address some commonly asked questions:

My husband loves how easy it is to get speed up with the BKC SK287. However, he finds turning to be very hard. It performs great on flat water but is not ideal for open ocean. It works well on lakes or bays.

Yes, there is a bulkhead in the front of the kayak.

There is indeed space between the rear of the seat and the rear bulkhead to put a battery.

The circumference of the cockpit is 24'' L x 18'' W. We do not have a specific recommendation for a spray skirt size or product. It is essential that you choose one that fits tightly to the kayak rim while also being comfortable around your waist.
