Bonafide Kayaks SS127

Stability and paddling performance are usually a trade-off in fishing kayak design. The SS127 is Bonafide's answer to that problem, a sit-on-top kayak that manages to be genuinely, impressively stable at 33.5 inches wide while still tracking well, gliding smoothly, and turning with ease. It takes a few strokes to believe it, but the hull delivers on all fronts.

The seating system is one of the standout features. The HiRise high-back seat positions you with knees bent to take pressure off your lower back during long days on the water. When you want to cover distance and paddle efficiently, the SeatRack and foldable frame convert the seat to a lower position quickly and quietly without tools or fuss. Standing up to fish is equally confidence-inspiring, and the deck layout with YakAttack GearTrac keeps your rods, tools, and accessories organised and within reach without cluttering your casting space.

This is a kayak that works across a wide range of water types. Flatwater lakes, moving rivers, inshore coastal fishing, the SS127 handles it all without asking you to specialise. Months of iterative testing and refinement went into getting the hull to perform the way it does, and that shows the moment you get on the water.
