Kraken 110 lbs with included accessories
Thresher is 80 lbs
And the ocean kayak ultra is 77lbs

110 is a heavy kayak to pull over sand

Thanks for the info gents. FYI, no demo day at San Diego location, just Sunset. I just called OEX (MB) and they have a Kraken available for test paddle.

WHEEL-EZE will work well even for the Pa 12 and PA 14's and they are heavier than the kraken

Sorry, yak-fishing-SoCal. 110lbs straight from the website. But, hull weight is similar to the Ultra and Thresher. Weight will increase with any kayak once rigged. I really like the seat on the kraken. It looks sexy.. And comfortable!

My Trident feels heavier than 60lbs.. Lol. Maybe I'm just weak.

I have a Thresher 140 and it's a pretty good Kayak. Paddles pretty well, and the tracking is fair compared to other kayaks I have paddled. Very stable, and comfortable. I recommend test paddling anything you are thinking of buying so you can get the feel for it.
