Bonafide XTR130 Fishing Kayak

Yes, the XTR130 is specifically designed for standing. Its wide 40.5-inch beam and elevated casting platform provide a stable, walkable deck that feels more like a small bass boat than a traditional kayak.

Absolutely. The XTR130 is built to be compatible with multiple motor configurations. It includes dedicated battery storage and PowerLink ports, making it straightforward to rig up an electric motor for hands-free propulsion.

The hull weighs 155 lbs, which is substantial for a kayak. Because of this weight and its width, you will likely need a kayak trailer or a truck bed with a bed extender for transport rather than a standard roof rack.

While the XTR130 is primarily designed as a solo craft, it does support an optional tandem seating configuration. It is best suited for solo use, but the extra capacity allows for a second passenger if you add the necessary seat.

The XTR130 is optimized for calm to moderate water conditions, such as lakes, ponds, and slow-moving rivers. Its design prioritizes stability and gear management over tracking speed in rough or open ocean waters.

With a 730 lb weight capacity and extensive gear tracks throughout the deck, you can carry a significant amount of equipment. It is designed to handle heavy tackle boxes, multiple rods, and large batteries without feeling cluttered.
