Gang, lumbar surgery aftermath is forcing me to switch to a pontoon, so I am putting my Santa Cruz Raptor on the block. She's 13 feet long and weighs about 70 pounds. In excellent condition. Comes with a Cannon Nokomis paddle, a Scotty rod holder and a few pool noodles stuffed in the hull. $625, and I am between Sisters and Redmond in central Oregon. My wife is keeping her Raptor as she loves it so much, but I am going to have either to go to a pontoon to fish out of or start a Vicodin addiction.
I bought this boat directly from Jim Martin in Santa Cruz. Great guy and kayaker.

$525? Since I first posted this, I blew my L4-5 disc and need more surgery. No yaks in my foreseeable future. Father's Day is coming ...

Ever tried a seat from a Jackson kayak ? I'm a big guy and it is all day comfortable  and they have a lumbar cushion you could add.

Jojo, have not. If the surgeon can work his magic and I still have this, I might give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion.

I hope your back heals up to the point that you can keep kayaking!!

The Raptor is an awesome kayak!

Yeah, the JK lumbar support pad thing is pretty cool, and I have found it really helps out my lower back issues...its like an infatable bean bag...

I would think it would fit around any seat?? Worth a shot for sure?

Best of luck!!
