Native Watercraft FX Tandem

The FX Tandem is designed for both. You can easily reconfigure the seating to a solo position, which centers your weight for better tracking and control when paddling alone.

The open-deck design offers a wider, more stable platform that feels closer to a canoe. While you lose the enclosed cockpit protection, you gain significant room for gear and easier entry and exit, making it ideal for camping or hunting trips.

No, the FX Tandem does not include factory-installed rod holders. However, its open-deck layout and hybrid design make it very easy to customize with aftermarket mounts if you plan to use it for fishing.

The total weight capacity is 600 pounds. This capacity refers to the total weight of the paddlers and all gear, not including the 80-pound weight of the kayak itself.

It is suitable for both freshwater and coastal environments. Its stable hull design handles calm coastal waters well, though it is best suited for protected bays and estuaries rather than open ocean surf.

The hand-sewn seats feature a high/low adjustment system. This allows you to raise your seating position for better visibility and casting, or lower it to improve the kayak's center of gravity and stability in choppier conditions.
