Hurricane Skimmer 140 Tandem











Hurricane Skimmer 140 Tandem
Glide farther, carry less, and share every moment on the water. The Hurricane Skimmer 140 Tandem redefines what a two-person kayak can be—ultra-light, effortlessly responsive, and built for smooth, efficient paddling. Whether it’s coastal cruising or lake-day exploring, this is tandem kayaking without the usual bulk holding you back.
Built with Hurricane’s signature Trylon ABS construction, the Skimmer 140 Tandem delivers a rare combination of strength, stiffness, and featherweight performance. At just around 65 lbs, it’s dramatically lighter than traditional tandem kayaks—making transport, loading, and launching far more manageable for two paddlers (or even solo handling when needed). On the water, that lightweight design translates into quicker acceleration and smoother glide, so every stroke feels efficient and rewarding.
Designed for versatility, the Skimmer 140T excels in recreational touring, coastal paddling, and relaxed day trips. Its sleek 14-foot hull tracks cleanly while maintaining reassuring stability, making it approachable for newer paddlers yet responsive enough for more experienced duos. Dual Airestream seat backs provide breathable comfort for long sessions, while multiple storage hatches keep gear organized and within reach for extended adventures.
From spontaneous shoreline explorations to full-day excursions, this tandem is about shared experiences without compromise. It’s nimble where others feel sluggish, light where others feel cumbersome—and always ready to turn a simple paddle into something memorable.
