If you live in the Sacramento area, it is a crime not to get out on Lake Natoma or the American River. Really, it will make your summer so much better.
I must sell my Wilderness Systems Pungo 140. It is a GREAT kayak. Plenty of storage, great stability, moves surprisingly fast, and is easy to in and out. They don’t make them anymore, so it is a bit of a find. WS discontinued them because the 12 ft was a better seller, and if you want a 12-foot boat, the 12-foot Pungo is a good one. I like the additional storage for longer trips and camping. This comes with the dashboard, bilge pump, original paddle and I’ll probably throw in some other odds and ends. $350 is the going rate.
I have not used this in 5 years due to back problems. It has been stored covered and is in great shape. I’ve included some pictures and have more if you request them.
REVIEWS:
“Coming from a SOT and a Looksha 17, this boat is SO stable, tracks like an arrow, has a very versatile cockpit from tight spray skirt to open convenience tray, and has a VERY comfy adjustable seat. I may buy another kayak just for something different but I'll never sell my Pungo 140.”
“I absolutely love it, super stable, very maneuverable, especially for a longer kayak, and very well built. Very comfortable for long trips paddling.”
“This Kayak is worth every penny. I live near the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, and I have taken this beautiful 14 foot kayak under the center of the bridge. It has great stability and maximum comfort. The dual bulkheads are perfect for storage and safety if you flip your kayak. It is fast and tracks super well. I have owned it since 2009, and spent every year on the water since. I personally have turned it into a fishing kayak, and it works super well. it is light enough for a large kayak that I can put it on the top of my truck's roof rack by myself. 100% would recommend this kayak and the wilderness systems line.”
