Santee 126 (demo)

When you’ve got the best in-class recreational kayak, what do you do next? You think about how to make that design accessible to more people. Recreational means a lot of different things to different paddlers.

For some folks, recreational means accessories, and accessories require space, so Hurricane took the Santee 116 and upsized it. They put some serious cubic inches in the cockpit and voila ― the Santee 126 Sport!  A recreational kayak that gives you room for tackle boxes, rod tubes, dry bags and perhaps the family dog ― appropriately clad in a doggie PFD of course. In addition to the extra space in the cockpit, the Santee 136 Sport also features a sealed rear bulkhead and easy to use hinge hatch, and at 36.5 pounds you aren't sacrificing performance for extra space.

Why? Because the 126 Sport rides on the same magic Swede form hull as the 116.
