Decoding Pelican Model Numbers & Letters: What 100, 120, X, XR, XP, EXO, and More Really Mean
When you shop for a Pelican kayak, you’ll notice a combination of numbers and letters in every model name. These codes are intentional — they help you quickly understand the kayak’s size, category, and included features.
The Numbers = Length
The Letters = Feature Level
Common suffixes include:
EXO = Includes EXO Storage Accessory (e.g. Argo 100X EXO)
Any Pelican kayak with EXO in the name comes with a removable EXO storage solution.
Angler = Fishing Version (e.g. SEEK 100XP Angler)
Any Pelican model with Angler in the name shares the same hull as its recreational counterpart, but comes equipped with fishing-specific features.
