Buying A Used Hobie - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It would depend on if you like the speed over the hull slap and stability, I can stand on my outback no problem and also I noticed that there have been a few peeps here that I have heard that upon buying a revo and after a couple of outings it seems they have had issues like leaky hulls. I dont know the details or extent but maybe one of the guys can chime in on that subject.

I myself have an outback and I love it especially staying dry. Sailing rudder and turbo fins are not so much a must but helps out a lot.

The hobie bait tanks are good too but over time the pull switch goes bad but its a wear and tear thing so its expected, I guess just give it a good rinse off with the hose when you get home and your good. hope i answered some of your questions at the least.
