Tarpon 160, circa 2004-2006.

Double hatch style, so no tank well, but you can use it to store most of your belongings!

2 flush mount rod holders, 1 poorly installed Scotty base, standard factory base for Lowrance Mark/Elite 4, Hobie thru hull wiring kit

Comes with an old skool OK seat and a fiberglass Werner paddle

I bought this kayak last year to figure out if I really liked fishing this way, and then immediately bought a different one that I prefer for fishing.

This boat is very fast and tracks well without a rudder, and it cuts right through heavy chop, wind and current. It safely got me through a nasty washing machine at Cape Disappoinment and a day at Westport when I really had no business being there.

It's also a very wet ride, not terribly comfortable and kind of so-so as a fishing platform. It could work as an inexpensive "buddy boat" or an introduction to the sport for other cheap bastards like me.

$300 OBO, weeds not included
