The latest innovation from Bonafide Fishing brings anglers a hybrid flats skiff design, creating one of the most versatile platforms in the Bonafide lineup. With the coastal angler in mind, the SKF117 is a kayak and an SUP. With a low-profile design, ultra stability, and an expansive open deck, this kayak is perfect for the shallow-water angler.
To appropriately accommodate the wide open and stable fishing platform, the SKF117 has an integrated Bonafide high-rise seat. This two-position seat is the most popular and comfortable seat offered by Bonafide, allowing you to sit and stand with ease. You can easily remove the seat to place your favorite cooler if you want added storage or a platform to stand as you paddle. The SKF117 will house all your favorite accessories to create the ultimate fishing platform. It features a large tank well that will secure a 16×16 YakAttack BlackPak, a cooler, or batteries. You can easily install your Power-Pole Micro Anchor with the integrated mounting surface at the rear of the kayak. With the proper mount, this kayak will also accept a trolling motor. Along the gunnels, you’ll find multiple gear tracks and mounting points in the front and rear of the kayak to house accessories from a paddle holder, camera mount, or fishfinder mount. The center cupholder in the front of the kayak is run to a transducer pocket, allowing you to install a fishfinder.
The hybrid skiff design provides anglers with an open, stable platform to fight and land fish. One of the most unique features of the SKF117 is the integration of the drop skeg. Using the lever along the high-rise seat, you can deploy and retract the spring-loaded skeg. When in shallow water, the skeg will automatically retract into the kayak when it comes in contact with the bottom.
Installing either the Bonafide Sidekick Wheel System along the rear gear tracks or the Tag Along System, which will bolt to the rear of the kayak, makes transporting the SKF117 easy. With handles at the stern, mid-ship, and bow, manipulating this kayak off the water has never been easier.
The SKF117 is unlike any other kayak on the market. It offers a versatile, wide-open, and stable platform with features allowing you to catch more fish. Check out Bonafide’s latest innovation today!
