Bonafide SKF117

The SKF117 is a one-of-a-kind hybrid craft bringing together ultimate performance with comfort at any skill level for an all-around better time on the water from fishing to playing. Say hello to your new favorite fishing companion and paddle with confidence with the SKF117. This salt flats Skiff-inspired design will take you from mangroves to lakes to rivers.

We've packed the SKF117 with features designed to give you a better fishing experience, from skeg to hull and everything in between. With our spring-loaded skeg system, you control how your kayak moves, allowing you to get the most out of your vessel no matter the waterways you're fishing. Our unique hull design blends the stability and efficiency of a catamaran with the maneuverability of a traditional paddleboard to give you greater control, and confidence, on the water. But we didn't stop there. The SKF117 is designed to be highly customizable, with tons of opportunities to rig your vessel just the way you want it. The SKF117 is also Bonafide Sidekick compatible.

For long days of kayaking, rest easy on our extremely popular HiRise Seating System, an innovative seating design that elevates your position for a more ergonomic, natural paddling posture and a better view. Translation? All-day comfort for avid anglers and nature enthusiasts alike. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Our Boss Strap Paddle Management System allows you to quickly stow or retrieve your paddle without any hassle, and the seamlessly integrated under-seat compartment ensures maximum storage capacity for all your gear.
