Love mine but too expensive.
Have had my outback mirage hank parker edition for 2 years and love it. My only complaint was the price. They load you up with too much crap you don't need for open ocean fishing. I don't know if you can get the pedal vesion in a pared down form. I really wish now that I had had that choice. If I had the choice to buy the Yak with only the pedals and padle I would have taken it. I would have bought a better seat. Forgone the drybag, cooler and anchor. Installed a bigger center hatch and otherwise spent my saved money on tube holders and a fishfinder. Don't get me started on the kayak dolly that came with it. It broke on the second outing. One of the cheap plastic hubs just disintegrated. I had to go to harbor freight tools and buy pneumatics to retrofit the frame. Other than the pedal system I would guess the dolly is the second most expensive addon to the yak. If you can buy a pared down version then skip the dolly and make one out of PVC and $5 pneumatic tires. Other than that it's stable and quick in open water but handles like a pig in the surf.
