Question about the Malibu x-13 and OK T13 and more? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks for the response Rav3n805! I haven't seen the 13 and 15 next to each other yet. I am a little concerned with size since i will be storing in the house and i will probably be mounting it on the roof of my CRV. Thinking about it though, 13 and 15 ft don't seem like that much of a length difference, i will have to measure my storage space. I hadn't really considered past 13', i thought that may be a little long already

I have looked into the hobbies. They seem really nice but probably a little overkill for me at this stage unless i found a nice one used.

Thanks
Dan

Hobie Outback (darkside) 13 feet just right...
I had an Xfactor for 3 years, great stable ride, pretty fast, the tarps are good but if you get addicted like most in here, you will go through a couple before you settle in...welcome to the crew

If price is not an issue Hobie Outback hands down. As far as a place near by to compare boats side by side in San Pedro is Xstreamline on Gaffey. By far they have the most invEntory. Not sure if you can demo them but inwas there recently and they must have had 6 tridents on display in an assortment of colors.
