Morning Afternoon all.
1st time Kayaker here with the intentions of going offshore/BTB with my 2005 outback.
All I have is the outback with the Mirage Drive. I have to start from scratch. I have RTFF and I have a local shop prepped to go as far as strengthening the drive-well area for an upgrade to the Turbo-Fins.
From Bungees' to paddles to rod holders etc Could I get some direct outfitting advice from a pre-2009 Outback owner on the best way for a NEWBIE to set up his outback.
One last question. Are the hobie outriggers a good option for going BTB. What are outrigger Pros and Cons going BTB.
I will be primarily operating off the Florida Gulf Coast but wil be venturing as far west as Galveston and as far south as the Florida Keys.
I'm kinda in information overload mode right now so any complete package suggestions that would take my guess work out the equation is greatly appreciated.
