What Hobie Model
I have been using a 2016 Hobie Revolution 13 for the last 16 months after paddling Malibu's and Jackson kayaks for 3 years. I absolutely love the Mirage drive and the endurance using leg power. The stability and tracking is not as good as on my 2016 Malibu X Factor, but it it nice having the hands free. I enjoy using both, but if I had to pick a Hobie model right now. It would be to use out in the ocean and surf launching almost always. I would get the new Hobie Compass. It comes as a great blank canvas to be able to rig it up for the individual likes. The best thing is the starting price.

I'm 5'10" 185lbs. Own a revolution 13 and an adventure. The revolution is plenty stable for me, but it lacks capacity and speed that the adventure has.
