Vibe Kayak-Hydra 130

Because your kayak should intimidate the fish — and your friends:

• Fast and stable — glides through open water, handles wind and chop like a champ
  

• Gear tracks, dual hatches, Power Pole mounts = full rigging flexibility

• Big-time storage and a 500 lb capacity = ready for long hauls, big fish, or heavy gear

If you want speed, space, and serious angling performance, the Hydra 130 brings the muscle.

The Hydra 130 is built for anglers and adventurers who need big-water speed, open deck space, and serious fish-slaying stability. With a sharp, rockered bow for cutting through chop, a wide rear hull for stand-up casting, and next-level customization built in, it’s made for those who chase the bite beyond the break — and never look back.

Speed for distance. Stability for battle.

At 13 feet, the Hydra glides fast and tracks true, even in crosswinds and current. But when it’s time to slow down and stand up, its wide rear keeps things rock steady while you work the line or land a monster.

Fully riggable. Brutally capable.

Loaded with gear tracks, dual hatches, Power Pole and motor mounts, a huge rear tank well, and a removable electronics pod — you’re free to fish your way, with space for everything from sonar to snacks.

Comfort that holds up when the ocean kicks up.

The Flex 4 seat delivers breathable, low, comfortable support all day long. And with adjustable foot braces and a toe-controlled rudder, you’re in command of every turn — no matter how rough the ride.

Choose Surge Green (and Live to Tell the Tale)

This eye-popping color was selected based on search-and-rescue pilot input as one of the most visible options on open water.

It's not just bright. It's tactical. Stay seen, stay safe—and look damn good doing it.
