Eddyline Caribbean 140FS Sit on Top Recreational Kayak
The Eddyline Caribbean 140FS is the flagship of Eddyline's sit-on-top lineup — a 14-foot high-performance SOT that combines the award-winning Caribbean Gull Wing hull with upgraded FS (frame seat) comfort for paddlers who demand the best of both worlds. Built with Eddyline's proprietary Carbonlite thermoformed construction, the 140FS delivers the lightweight handling and high-gloss durability the Caribbean series is known for in a longer, faster hull that adds waterline speed, load capacity, and exceptional straight-line tracking. At 14 feet with a 29-inch beam, the sharply formed entry and exit lines slice through the water with purpose, while the Gull Wing configuration maintains the extraordinary primary stability and easy leaned turns that make the Caribbean series a favorite on lakes, inshore bays, and slow-moving rivers.
The removable Cloud 10 folding frame seat is the standout upgrade of the 140FS — constructed from antimicrobial marine-grade foam with solar weave tech-mesh fabric for durable, breathable, water- and sun-proof all-day comfort. It clips out in seconds to double as a camp or beach chair when you're off the water. The cockpit is purpose-built for versatility: adjustable foot braces accommodate a wide range of paddlers, dual accessory tracks on the gunwales provide mounting points for rod holders, cup holders, camera docks, and custom gear, and a 6-inch accessory track on the center spine of the footwell adds even more customization options. Two flush-mount rod holders come standard, making the 140FS immediately fishing-ready right out of the box.
Storage is generous and well-configured for longer outings. A large front hatch offers ample interior dry storage, while the redesigned rear tankwell maximizes capacity and accommodates square crates and round buckets secured with cargo bungees — ideal for anglers and multi-day paddlers alike. Bow and stern webbing carry handles make two-person transport comfortable, while perfectly balanced carbon fiber side carry handles handle solo carries effortlessly and double as one-handed paddle parks. With a 350-pound weight capacity and the speed and range to keep pace on extended paddles, the Caribbean 140FS is the ultimate Eddyline sit-on-top for paddlers ready to go farther, carry more, and stay comfortable every mile of the way.
BLEM Model Advantage: BLEM kayaks are kayaks with minor COSMETIC differences. Typically, this manifests as minor defects in the color pattern of the hull.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Eddyline Caribbean 140FS
Who is the Eddyline Caribbean 140FS best suited for?
The Caribbean 140FS suits medium to large-framed paddlers and anglers who want the longer, higher-capacity option compared with the Caribbean 120. It is 14 feet, 29 inches wide, 60 pounds and rated to a published 350-pound maximum, with a removable frame seat, two flush-mount rod holders and a large rear tankwell, and its published paddler size is M/L. The trade-off is weight: at 60 pounds, getting the boat to the water deserves real planning.
How does the Caribbean 140FS compare with the Caribbean 120?
The 140FS is longer, heavier and carries more: 14 feet, 60 pounds and 350 pounds of capacity against the Eddyline Caribbean 120's 12 feet, 49 pounds and 275 pounds. The 140FS is slightly narrower at 29 inches versus 30, adds a third hatch and a larger rear tankwell that takes square crates and round buckets, and is sized M/L rather than S/M/L. Both carry a removable frame seat, two rod holders and gunwale accessory tracks.
What does its 350-pound capacity include?
The published 350-pound maximum includes the Caribbean 140FS itself, the paddler, and everything carried aboard. The hull's published 60-pound weight counts toward it, so the full 350 pounds is not available for you and your gear. Add yourself, clothing, a life jacket, paddle, water, food, safety gear, tackle, a crate, a cooler and everything riding in the tankwell; anglers reach the number faster than they expect. Loading below the maximum generally keeps the deck higher and drier and preserves maneuverability.
How does the removable frame seat work?
The Caribbean 140FS uses a removable folding frame seat built from antimicrobial marine-grade foam with a breathable tech-mesh fabric, so it drains and dries rather than staying damp. It clips out in seconds and doubles as a camp or beach chair, and taking it out opens the deck for loading gear or rinsing the boat. Raised seating gives better visibility for casting and a drier ride. Rinse it with fresh water and dry it before storage.
What fishing and accessory-mounting features are included?
The Caribbean 140FS comes with two flush-mount rod holders behind the seat. Dual accessory tracks on the gunwales and a 6-inch track on the center spine of the footwell take additional rod holders, camera mounts, cup holders and electronics without drilling the hull. Adjustable foot braces set leg length, and deck pads add traction underfoot. Check that any accessory matches the track profile before ordering, because mounting hardware is not interchangeable across every system.
What storage does the Caribbean 140FS provide?
The 140FS has three hatches, including a large front hatch and tankwell hatches, reaching most of the interior. The rear tankwell is the headline feature: it takes square crates and round buckets secured under cargo bungees, which is what makes the boat practical for a full day's fishing kit. Hatch compartments are water-resistant rather than guaranteed dry, so electronics belong in a dry bag and open tankwell gear should be tethered.
What water conditions is it intended for?
The Caribbean 140FS is intended for inshore waters, lakes and ponds, Class I–II rivers and flowing water, and fishing. Its 14-foot hull and efficient shape help it hold a line on open water and cover distance, while the 29-inch beam keeps the deck settled enough to fish from. It is a sit-on-top, which means exposure to wind, spray and water temperature — dress for immersion outside warm conditions. Class I–II describes the design's range, not any specific river.
How should it be transported, and can a scupper cart be used?
No scupper cart on the Caribbean 140FS — posts inserted through the scupper holes damage the hull, and that damage is excluded from Eddyline's warranty. Use a padded strap-style cart instead. At 60 pounds and 14 feet, plan on a two-person lift onto the vehicle. Sit-on-tops carry well deck-down on padded crossbars; keep straps snug rather than over-tightened, add bow and stern lines, and secure loose ends. See Eddyline's owner information.
What warranty coverage comes with the Caribbean 140FS?
The Caribbean 140FS carries a three-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, with deck rigging covered for two years. Coverage is limited to the original owner and requires warranty registration. Normal wear, improper use or storage, UV color fading, freight damage and scupper-cart damage are excluded, and the customer pays return transportation, freight and packaging charges on a claim.
