: What is your opinion of the Tarpin 120? I am looking at this boat to fish San Joaquine Valley rivers and lakes, with occasional use on the central coast (Morro Bay to Monterey) Is the 120 large enough to be safe in ocean waters? I am new to kayaking, and need all the info. I can get. Thanks, Redfish
Redfish,
I have never paddled the 120. You should test paddle the boats you are considering. When choosing the boats that are in contention you must match your size , particularly your wieght. The 120 has only a 300lb capacity so if your are approaching 250lbs all by yourself then once you add your gear and perhaps a livewell( "a pints a pound the world around") and fish you are far and away too big for this boat. Read all you can and test. Here is a review

Happy searching.
Fishon,
