Wilderness Systems Tarpon 140 Kayak

A Sea Kayaker Magazine Readers' Choice Award winner for Best Sit-On-Top Series, the Tarpon 140 brings a longer, more capable hull to paddlers who want better glide, greater efficiency, and the confidence to handle open water and variable conditions.

Compared to the Tarpon 120, the 140's longer and narrower profile reduces drag and improves tracking on longer crossings and windier days, while the twin inverted keel strips maintain straight-line performance without sacrificing the ability to manoeuvre when needed. For paddlers in the 140 to 240 lb range who cover serious distance on Canadian lakes, coastal routes, or open water, that added efficiency is genuinely noticeable over a full day on the water. The hull remains stable enough for fishing, photography, and relaxed paddling, making it a versatile sit-on-top that adapts to how you use it.

The Phase 3 AirPro seat is the finest outfitting system in the industry, with an adjustable backband, thigh braces, and a moisture-wicking seat pan that adjusts up or down for a customised fit. The SlideTrax accessory system lets you mount rod holders, camera mounts, and other gear without drilling, and the open rear tankwell with bungee handles crates, coolers, and dry bags with ease. Two Orbix hatch covers protect dry storage fore and amidships, and self-bailing scupper holes keep the deck clear without any effort on your part. Built in North America from durable Gen2 polyethylene.
