Looks like you've added quite a few gadgets since I've last seen you.

You probably got a good pull at least. I am sure it got your heart pounding.

The two times I thought I was on a legal WSB they were both bat rays!

Outriggers are to keep bow from plowing into waves when under motor power.... And the Xi5 trolling motor on the bow didn't help.


Also, at night... I cant see nothing... so I feel a bit safer when a sudden swell sneaks up from only God knows where.


Whenever I think about leaving them behind... I think about my Good friend/ Friend who know hates me.... who capsized his PA14 while hooping.

the PA17t has enough room to bout a 100 amp 12v lithium battery, in a specially designed battery holder in the stern of the kayak... and as far as spare batteries for the torqeedo i just tie them to the H bar...so they don't float away

You could buy a 17' Boston Whaler for cheaper than what it cost for your rig, have you ever surf launched that beast?

Well... You can buy a cheap boat... Or you can buy an expensive kayak...

Its like when your dating... you can choose to marry an expensive model... or you can buy a working model... or you can just date infected ones... or you can work all your life and not get an expensive model...



I can pedal... Motor... Sail... Sleep.... Poop... Car top it... Trailer... It... Beach launch.... Fish it at lakes..... All with no oil and gas....
Cook some fish tacos... Make out... Shower... Sun bathe in the nude... Have a fireplace ... Stand up and Fish... Walk to the Bow... Walk to the Stern.... microwave my hotdogs... take my son out to have a good time... All while eating hot noodles.

Fits what I want to do with it....


One kayak... One purpose... To get out and fish...

PA17t is not for everyone....

As a father... I see the value....

If your content with your small things... well that fine too
