2009 Tarpon 160
The ultimate destination kayak, the original Tarpon 160 is the one that started it all and has become the standard by which others are measured. For 2009, our famous sit on top touring kayak is taking the lead in redefining the Tarpon series, boasting the most enhancements of the line. We’ve re-designed our 16-foot kayak with more capacity and even greater speed and acceleration.
With the newly improved outfitting, the Tarpon 160 is also the fisherman’s dream. While it features all the traditional rigging to bring in and haul away “the big one,” we’ve now included the new SlideTrax accessory system for virtually limitless add-ons. More easy access storage, legendary Phase 3 comfort, new locking hatch covers, and a re-engineered scupper tube design ensure all that extra gear you’ll be taking stays dry.
Whether it’s launching through the surf or cruising the lake, the all-new Tarpon 160 is the only sit on top for those who won’t compromise comfort for performance.
