Bonafide Kayaks SS127 - Front Hatch and Doubleheader Hinges

When designing the Bonafide SS127 sit on top fishing kayak we knew there was room for innovation and improvement when it came to the front hatch. In this video, Luther talks about the Doubleheader Hinges and rod and paddle management using the front hatch on the Bonafide SS127.

Absolutely LOVE the double hinge set up! I can already see them being well used while storing my fishing and hunting gear throughout the year!

Love this design

Hey guys just picked up the ss127 and had a question. I noticed in another video there is a rod stager in the front hatch but mine did not come with one...what gives? LOVE the boat btw.

Hey Brett, the inside the hull rod stagers we part of the early prototype kayaks we took to trade shows last summer. They didn't make it to the final product but are something we are working on as an accessory.

Hello Bonafide team, where can I purchase the hinges and latches for the SS107? I don't see them on your website. Thanks!

Need to make a removable tray for front hatch compartment

Would a boondox landing system effect perch pad?

[@bonafidefish]

With the crossbar on the Boondox Landing Gear the Perch Pads probably wouldn't be the best location and would interfere with the seat.

[@Rougar00u]

Bonafide Kayaks could it be mounted behind seat and not affect crate?

[@sailor144]

I've always liked that hatch concept. That and the seat mechanism is great. By the way, what material is used in the seat frame? Aluminum?

[@bonafidefish]

You are correct. The seat frame is aluminum.

Hi I live in Wisconsin I got Lake Michigan three blocks away from my house I'm looking to buy a kayak first time I like your guy's design my question is if it will support my weight I'm 375 lb 6'2" also if you'll be stable enough to stand up

[@Larry77777]

Hey Cutberto: the Bonafide SS127 sit on top fishing kayak will support your weight but I would advise you AGAINST standing up on it in Lake Michigan. Safety first. I have been using a 10ft sit-on-top called a Tarpon 100 for 8 years and I will NOT stand up in it, despite the fact I only weigh 125lbs (literally one third of your weight) and I don't want to find out "how much I weigh soaking wet".
