It reminds me of the "catch and release shopping" that my wife does. You know the drill. Head to Marshalls or TJ Maxx with the girls and buy an arm load of clothes. Try them on at home and take them back the next day. At least she returns most of the stuff.

Back to kayaks. As a Revo rider, I can understand why you might be sorry that you moved on to something else but I am curious as to exactly why you want to return to the fold. Inquiring minds want to know.

To be honest with you Bob, Hobie just plain-ass makes a nice kayak. Fit/finish are the best, including cup holders, side pockets, and all the other little things that just add up to a nice boat. The steering design on the Hobie is far superior to any foot manipulated rudders - Tarpon and Ocean Kayaks. Every time I went/go out in either of the above mentioned two, I come back and my legs look like a chewed up 'mac'. After time, and for whatever reason the cables on the foot control rudders start to fray at the ends and end up putting some healthy gouges into the sides of my legs.


Lastly, for me anyway, having abused my body physically over the years it is so much easier to peddle than it is to paddle. I don't have to come home after a long day of fishing and load up on Motrin because my shoulders, elbows, and neck hurt.

Best of all, I can fish, drink a beer (or 3), and cover a lot of water, all at the same time!

We need to fish together one of these days. I can't seem to catch any significant fish lately but I am pretty good at the other things you mentioned above.
