Jeff if I had to pick between the Outback and the revo....Id pick the outback.

If I were to pick between the PA12 and the 14, I would go 14.

If I had to pick between the PA12 and the outback, I would go with the outback.

Get the hobie sport if you want to eventually buy 2 kayaks.

Get some racks for the van or for the CR-V and your set. Loading on top of your car isn't as hard as you think, using the proper equipment and or technique, of course.

And Jeff...your not that old! You can still wind in those cow tunas...you can put a kayak on top of your vehicle.
