If you want to go little lighter than that maybe try Compass?

I am a PA12 Owner and they are great for LJ since the surf is relatively small compared to most places. I have only not been able to make it out if its 5+ which is rare in LJ. I really enjoy the extra room and will not downgrade until I can no longer handle the size. My average trips are between 8-10+ hours and the chair, ability to move, Sail Skeg wilt sail made it a winner for me. I've been in most of those little cramped kayaks and not a fan after getting spoiled on the advantage seat and ability to move around which means no soreness after a long day like when I had a smaller kayak.

This Saturday says 2-3 feet with the primary 2.5' swell at 9 second interval. Is that going to be a challenge with the tandem island?

I haven't tried San Diego Bay yet - I hear the calico are plentiful there but I have no idea...
