SOLD OUT! Email For Availability in 2022
Paddlers have been begging for a lightweight alternative to the heavy two-person polyethylene sit-on-tops on the market, so we put a tandem SOT deck on a proven lightweight hull design. Fully-featured from bow to stern with two 5.5-inch day hatches, a 8-inch bow hatch, two adjustable Airestream seat backs, and two new Skimmer Cushpads, the Skimmer 140T is designed for folks who like to spend time exploring with a friend. If a partner isn’t available, the addition of a clip-on seat allows the Skimmer 140T to be used solo, and this tandem is light enough that solo really is an option. Grab some paddles and PFD’s, the lightweight tandem sit-on-top you’ve been waiting for has finally arrived.

NOTE: The combination of high customer demand and supply chain/production issues caused by covid-19 is expected to result in a limited inventory of Hurricane Kayaks in 2022. Tackle Cove will receive a very limited number of 2022 model kayaks. To ensure you received your kayak in time for next season, we recommend ordering prior to 2022. Call or email for details.

Vent hole in your Skimmer series kayak. The hole in the rivet behind the seat is included so our Skimmer sit-on-tops can breathe. You see, our Skimmers are designed to be as water tight as possible, but this means they tend to be air tight too, which can cause problems when they are exposed to extremes in temperature. While your Skimmer will probably never experience temperature extremes after purchase, our boats are occasionally exposed to intense temperature changes during shipping. In response, we take this extra step to assure that our kayaks arrive on the showroom floor as beautiful as the day they were born.
Once your Skimmer comes home, you can plug the vent hole to minimize potential water seepage, especially if you paddle in rough conditions from time to time. If you choose not to plug the hole, that’s fine too, as the hole itself is rarely exposed to water. If you don’t plug the vent hole and your Skimmer capsizes, water will slowly weep into the hole while the boat is upside down, but this shouldn’t be an issue unless the boat stays upside down for an extended period of time. News Flash: All sit-on-top kayaks take on water during use (that’s why they have drain plugs), but it’s probably not a good idea to play capsize with your Skimmer unless you plug that hole first.
If you decide to plug the vent hole, we recommend using Gorilla Glue to fill the void. You can also plug the hole with a waterproof silicone, but the silicone might eventually need replacement.
Enjoy your Skimmer and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
