Based on the classic Sandpiper, the Sandpiper 130 has been extended to 13 feet, given an 18 inch oval rear hatch, and a removableframe seat. The Sandpiper 130 has a large cockpit, making getting in or out of the kayak a breeze. Bring a dog, a camera, camping gear, and dont forget the fishing rod. Paddle for hours in total comfort, then take the seat with you for a beach chair.
