This is a second-hand Wilderness Systems Tarpon E 130 which has only seen light use and is still in very good condition. The Wilderness Systems Tarpon E 130 is a versatile, high-capacity sit-on-top kayak, ideal for couples, small families or solo paddlers who want a stable, comfortable craft for lakes, rivers or coastal waters. It balances roominess and performance — giving you generous space and storage without sacrificing paddling efficiency.
Features:
-
Spacious Tandem + 2-to-3 Seater Layout: With a roomy cockpit, the Tarpon E 130 comfortably fits two adults — and even offers space for a small third occupant (child or pet) in the versatile third seat/centre-cockpit.
-
Robust Construction: Made from super-linear high-density polyethylene with a stable multi-chine hull and full keel for reliable tracking, even on longer paddles.
-
Comfort-Focused Seating: Adjustable CSS-style backrests and moulded foot braces provide ergonomic support — a big plus on long excursions.
-
Ample Storage & Gear Handling: Bow and stern tankwells with bungee rigging, plus midship hatches and soft-touch carry handles, give plenty of space for dry bags, tackle boxes, or day-trip essentials.
-
Self-Bailing & Secure: Self-bailing scupper holes ensure water drainage and added safety, while a wave-piercing bow helps smooth handling even in choppy conditions.
-
User-Friendly Transport and Setup: Soft-touch carry handles and side-carry handles with paddle holders make launching, loading and manoeuvring hassle-free.
