Bonafide RS117<\/strong> is an American fishing kayak<\/strong> kayak from the RISE series, built for those who need a real standing platform without a premium price. The same hybrid catamaran hull as in the Bonafide SS series, a comfortable Stadium Seat and a well thought out storage system let you fish lakes, slow rivers, the coast and open bays.<\/p>\n

Hybrid catamaran hull<\/h3>\n

The RS117 inherited the same hull design that made the premium Bonafide SS series famous. Two longitudinal hull tunnels create a wide base of support, so the kayak doesn't rock when you stand up to cast. The restrained 85 cm width keeps the kayak light to paddle and easy to transport, while its stability and tracking beat much wider and heavier models.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Bonafide<\/p>\n

Stadium Seat: comfort for the whole day<\/h3>\n

The Stadium Seat is lighter and wider than many competitors' seats, with a double-layer breathable mesh. The Quick Connect system lets you switch in seconds between the low position for paddling and the high position for fishing. A cup holder, rod holders and side pockets around the seat keep gear within reach without standing up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Bonafide<\/p>\n

Storage and accessory tracks<\/h3>\n

The Shield StorageWell cover with an integrated paddle pocket gathers small items in one place, and the DryPod protects your most valuable things from water. Three YakAttack MightyMount XL tracks (two 30 cm and one 15 cm) let you mount fish finder brackets, camera arms or rod holders without drilling. The channel at the rear with a bungee cord is sized for a fishing crate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
