I like them from here better :eek:

They look to be well made kayaks. Sealed drive, lots of attachment points, very nice price point. The peddles can go in reverse, which would probably be good for the guys that bass fish the harbor. I don't really see the need for reverse in the big water though. Bottom looked a little flatter than the hobies, so it might pound, but it would be super stable to stand in.

My vote goes to Hobie :D

Not sure it matters here but in flats, the Hobie shines because you can pedal even in super shallow water. Nobody in soflo uses the native system because it's deep and you'd have to pull the drive out in the flats.

Out here there isnt really an issue with that shallow of water. So far the Natives have been very popular and we havnt had anybody not happy with the system.

Come down to OEX Mission Bay and try one out, we have Demos of both sizes on the Mariner.
