GREAT boat, had the PA14, two minor problems. First as we grow older we loose the ability to move like we used to and with that comes the loss of strength. So the BOAT that was awesome at 60 gets harder to load and unload, harder to get into the water, just plain HEAVIER. The second minor problem is beach lauching and landings, because of its hull shape it is tuffer to handle in the surf zone, at least for me. At 65 I down sized to the OUTBACK, still lot's of yak but less weight so all the MINOR PA problems were gone. The Outback RIGGED is 50 pounds LIGHTER than the PA14. And handles much better in the kill zone. The PA14 was the best boat I ever owned, while the Outback is the most I can handle at this point in my life. Hope this helps.
