Description

The BKC TK181 12.5' Tandem Sit On Top Kayak is the perfect kayak for outdoor fun. It has extra space to fit 3 people, making it ideal for paddling with kids on family adventures and epic fishing trips.

This kayak comes fully loaded with accessories. It includes 2 soft padded seats, 2 adjustable aluminum paddles, 2 waterproof hatches, 6 built-in rod holders, 2 paddle parks, and 1 bungee cargo tie down. Whatever you need for your next excursion, this kayak has it.

The TK181 is crafted for stability. Made from Roto Molded single Piece High-density polyethylene material, it is superior to inflatable kayaks. It can be used in the ocean, lake, or river, and can support up to 595 lbs. Its 34-inch beam ensures balance even in choppy waters or swift currents, and it offers superb stability for fishing in all conditions.

This kayak also features built-in fishing rod holders. It has 4 flush-mount rod holders and 3 articulating rod holders, allowing you to keep multiple baited lines in the water or keep the rods out of your way while paddling. Convenience is always an option.

Water-resistant storage is another great feature of the BKC TK181. It has dual watertight storage hatches, one for each seat, so you can keep all your valuables dry and within reach. The rear cargo space with bungee cord is perfect for holding fishing gear and other outdoor equipment.
