Anyone ever use a paddle on a Revo 13 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have a short bed Tacoma and have used a bed extender for years. It's sticks out!! It would probably be ideal to rack, but I've yet date, had anyone pull me over and debate the 2/3 wheelbase rule and where that point starts.

With all honesty, you will probably rarely use the paddle unless you consciously decide to paddle as the mirage drive design is what these boats are all about.
I like to paddle and switch it up every once and while or if my ankle starts acting up. The Revo 16 is def. the best paddling option within the hobie line. Although I considered paddling when I upgraded, I also considered additional storage, livewell space and overall speed.

The Revo 16 is pretty damn fast with turbo fins and upgraded rudder.
Stevooo has been in the format for years and did an awesome job of reviewing. You can search and see his feedback.

Cheers!
