I would like to use it for fishing and just cruising for fun. Which ones does everyone prefer??? Any help is very appreciated.
would there be anyone at the sale to help out a new guy with a kayak??

How big of a guy are you, and where do you want to do most of your fishing?

Hi guys, Im 5-9 205lb. Not sure where exactly im going to be fishing from. But i guess im closer to Topanga and Malibu so that would be the place. I would also like to use it for just cruising around for fun. As someone who never done it before i cant base anything on my exp..

Go with a stable yak first, get your feet wet, and don't worry about the speed factor of a narrower yak.

You can always upgrade later when you get used to the whole kayak fishing thing...and you will.

Definitely go see Andy, he is the Masta...

If I lived closer I would go just to over the deals...

is it better to go with the X-factor or the stealth 14. Which one is easier to store the rods in?? All the kayaks might be sold before i make a choice standing there lol. Would like to figure out which one i should go for before i get there. Im not a huge fisherman like some guys/girls.
Oh yea i got a VW camper that i would need to get the kayak on top of. So i guess i got to think of that one as well before i get a kayak.

My son didn't think he was going to get his stealth 12 with the line looking like this at 7:30am.

Good job Andy and thanks for the help!

Malibu x factor kayaks in Ohio?

Anyone know of where I can actually see the Malibu kayaks before I buy?? All of the listed dealers that I have seen back east do not have storefronts but are willing to bring a yak or two to the waters edge to give you a ride but I want to see the whole assortment with add-ons to see what I really want to spend my money on. I can travel reasonable distances (300 miles or less) to look. Thanks.
