I agree here also. I love the Ocean Kayaks. I bought an X-factor from a buddy and loved the stability on the bay but wasn't happy with the beach launches and landings, really wished I had the secondary stability. Then a buddy posted up his O.k. Prowler. I sold my X-factor and jumped at the Prowler. Many are going to point you to an Hobie and they are nice, but I would encourage you to test paddle each before you buy.
