Bonafide PWR129 More Features
- Integrated Rudder
The PWR129 features an integrated, foot controlled, retractable Springblade rudder that enhances boat control and maneuverability. The low-profile rudder allows precision steering in tight spaces near docks and cover. It can be lowered into the water for enhanced tracking and lifted out of the way when not needed. The Springblade rudder tucks neatly into a retracted storage position when maneuverability is not required.
Its integrated design and easy retraction add convenience and adaptability. The integrated rudder design offers flexibility for different rigging set-ups, working well for paddle power or electric motors.
- Rigging Ready
The PWR 129 is designed for easy, drill-free rigging of motors, fishfinders and electronics. The deck layout integrates plug-and-play mounts, lifts and controls for a clean setup. Motor mounts located at the stern and center seamlessly connect electric motors.
Five Power Link ports allow electronics wiring from bow to stern without drilling into the hull. These ports use gasket-sealed plates that can be drilled for switch and wiring access. No need to drill into the kayak itself. Two Power Link ports at the bow provide quick access for installing sonar units and running transducer wires. Two ports by the seat are ideally positioned for fish finder displays. A fifth port at the stern allows easy wiring for motors, lights and accessories.
The PWR 129 also includes integrated gear tracks and numerous mounting points to cleanly attach rod holders, anchors, cameras and other accessories. With its integrated mounting options and wiring access, the PWR 129 allows quick, no-drill rigging for a polished, clutter-free setup. The smart design integrates the key systems into the kayak for a powerful, seamless fishing platform.
