feedback from Hobie peddlers please

ok my 2 cents

I'm 6 ft @ 250 and luv the Hobie Revolution

Endurance / distance - I easily do 11 mile days fishing and am not exhausted

Speed - It actually is pretty swift, avg rate (depending on wind and current ) will run @ 5 (4.5 -5.5 mph), again this is for the REVO

Surf entry / exit - I leave the fins in, too many stories of people losing a major expensive piece of gear

Definitely have to agree with sail kits and kelp fishing

Waves - you don't (at least i don't) go over , it more like through

Wetness, tied to waves- if your heading out because of your speed when you hit a wave, the spray goes up and smacks you in the chest, also do to the on shore wind

I have a friend who has the Adventure Island and the extra 3 feet or so seems to keeps him drier

UPGRADE TO THE TURBO FINS !!!!

Then theres the most important things the coolness factor and hand free fishing, nothing in the world beats it , IMHO

Heres a estimated track of 10.97 miles in Long Beach I did in July
