Compared to an outback, it seems roomier because it has a more open cockpit. I think it has less Hull slap then the outback, but occasionally I still get a good splash over the bow. The higher seating in all the newer hobies keeps you pretty dry.

It seems more agile and “sporty” to me than the outback. It does have a different angle when it sits on the water. It is hard to explain but it looks to the eye like your heading downhill in the yak.

Comparing to a PA is definitely apples to oranges. If you want to bring gear without worrying about space or weight and have the room and way to transport it is a great fishing machine. A little bit cumbersome to launch and land if the surf is bigger, but easy to do at La Jolla.

Just my two cents. I’m sure others have different opinions and experiences.
