Bonafide Kayaks - SKF117
Bonafide Kayaks SKF117
Fishing kayaks tend to pull in one direction: either they're built to paddle well, or they're built to stand on. The SKF117 was designed to do both without compromise, drawing inspiration from salt flats skiff design to create a hybrid hull that feels at home on a coastal marsh, a backcountry river, or a quiet family lake day.
The hull is where the engineering gets interesting. Bonafide blended catamaran-style stability with the manoeuvrability of a traditional paddleboard, giving you a platform that's steady enough to stand and sight fish from, yet responsive enough to handle moving water and tight turns. A spring-loaded skeg system adds another layer of control, letting you adjust how the kayak tracks based on the conditions you're fishing rather than accepting a one-size-fits-all compromise.
Rigging flexibility is built into the SKF117 from the start. Whether you're running a minimalist paddle setup or fully loading it out with electronics, rod holders, and a motor, the customisation options are there. The SKF117 is also Bonafide Sidekick compatible, expanding your rigging possibilities even further.
