2024 Ascend 128X Yak-Power Sit-On - Desert Storm

The Ascend 128X is a 12.67-foot sit-on kayak built with a one-piece rotomolded catamaran hull designed for stability, performance, and tracking. The boat comes equipped with a Yak-Power electrical system featuring a wiring harness, master controller, and three power plugs to support fishfinders, GPS units, lighting rigs, and other powered accessories. A molded landing simplifies mounting optional electronics, and the design is stern motor and Power-Pole micro anchor ready.

The open cockpit layout prioritizes casting and cargo flexibility. The seating system includes a high-back adjustable seat with underseat storage, while the deck features gunwale flats with four 16-inch accessory rails for customization. Eight scupper drains with plugs manage water drainage, and non-skid cushioned flooring provides a stable platform. Storage options include a recessed bow area, a 10.91 by 14.84-inch midship hatch with hidden fasteners, and molded fishing rod staging and tackle storage along each side.

Practical details enhance usability: adjustable foot braces fit kayakers of varying heights, two flush-mounted rod holders with leash eyelets are included, and two drink holders keep refreshment within reach. The boat features three molded carrying handles—a performance grip bow handle and two stern handles—plus black powder-coated interior side handles for transport and control.
