Fast, straight-running performance in a 13-foot hull
01 — HULL & TRACKING

Fast, straight-running performance in a 13-foot hull

A multi-chined hull keeps the Tampico 130 quick and efficient, while a pronounced stern keel locks in straight-line tracking. A wider 26-inch beam adds reassuring stability without sacrificing speed.

  • Multi-chined hull for added glide and speed
  • Pronounced stern keel for confident straight-line tracking
  • 26-inch beam balances stability with performance
All-day cockpit comfort with the Airestream Strongside seat
02 — SEAT & COMFORT

All-day cockpit comfort with the Airestream Strongside seat

The newly designed Airestream Strongside seat base reinforces the deck and supports the paddler through long days on the water. A roomy 36 x 19 inch cockpit works equally well with or without a sprayskirt.

  • Airestream Strongside seat with deck reinforcement
  • Large 36" x 19" cockpit coaming
  • Compatible with or without a sprayskirt
Ready for day trips and overnight adventures
03 — STORAGE & RIGGING

Ready for day trips and overnight adventures

Solid ABS bulkheads create dry storage fore and aft, while a newly designed gasketed H-Pod just ahead of the cockpit keeps a phone and small items close at hand. Bow and stern deck lines and bungee rigging round out the rigging.

  • Solid ABS bulkheads with bow and stern storage
  • Gasketed H-Pod hatch for phones and small gear
  • Fore and aft bungee plus bow and stern deck lines
Lightweight, rigid Trylon thermoformed build
04 — CONSTRUCTION

Lightweight, rigid Trylon thermoformed build

Built from Hurricane's Trylon thermoformed ABS, the Tampico 130 weighs just 45 pounds yet stays rigid and durable. Trylon resists abrasion, UV, and heat distortion far better than rotomolded polyethylene.

  • Trylon thermoformed ABS construction
  • Just 45 lbs for easy carrying and loading
  • Superior abrasion, UV, and heat-distortion resistance

Got my wife's first kayak here and the guys were super helpful and friendly. Immediately welcoming and inviting — I can't wait to go back and browse their large inventory of kayaks and gear. Thank y'all for making our experience awesome!

So pleased with my Recon 120HD! Even though they're 2 hours away I had my kayak shipped to me. The packing was great and I received it undamaged. They were super helpful over the phone answering all my questions while I chose which kayak I wanted. Awesome company!

I bought my first kayak (I'm 61) thanks to Parker's education and patience. He spent two hours with me and even after the sale continued to patiently answer my many questions and offer advice. I was completely at ease and enjoyed the whole experience.

The Mecca of anything kayaking and kayak fishing! I ordered a new kayak from their website and they had it ready and waiting when I got there. Very friendly and helpful staff, and the largest inventory of kayak accessories anywhere around.

Bought a great Nova Craft canoe here — a 3–4 hour drive from home but well worth it. It took them about 5 minutes to load it and strap it on my car and I was gone.

You guys rock — super fast shipping and my kayak got to my doorstep without a scratch. It was definitely packed with care! I'm already recommending you to all my kayak friends.
