Hobie outback or pro angler??
Can't decide on which boat I want to get need to decide by Friday and wether to go with the outback or the pro angler any advice???
|
From what I know of the 2 the only thing that would be keeping you from getting the PA is your budget. If you dont have about 3000 for a pro angler. If your looking at outbacks though here is a deal I found you may like http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/spo/2853194496.html

if I only had 800
that looks like a fine buy.
William you are very helpful indeed. |

Budget
The budget isn't an issue it fish ability and portability I really like pro angler but also love outback will bring using a roof rack for transportation. Any one have any pros or cons
|
Outback 60 lbs dry PA 80-90 lbs:reel:
|
The PA is easier to transport than my stealth 12, which was 40 lbs lighters. I love my PA.
|
If I was to decide between the outback and the PA
I would get this one: http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/f...E/P2120070.jpg Oh wait I already did:D But if the budget really isn't an issue get one of each and a Revo and the Ocean Kayak Ultra 4.7 then you would all your bases covered:luxhello: |
Hahaha won't all fit in garage!!!

Between the outback and the pro angler? Go with the pro angler. I would make your choice based on what is better to fish from, not what is easier to transport. |
Is there anyone on here that pits there PA on a roof rack on a scion xb? And will it hold it? If so I think I might have made my decision

Don't get the PA if you don't have a truck. No truck NO PA. |

Selling my Outback soon .... love it ... but my fat ass would love to piss off a PA instead .... plus sight fishing off a PA ,,,, way better ,.... just ask ...
|
I have both an Outback and a PA. While the outback is lighter, I prefer the PA for it's stabilty and space. I have a pickup though so am not sure about the loading on a car. Check to see if the rating on the rack of your vehicle will handle 80-90 pounds. If it does you should be fine.
|
yes my scion's roof rack is rated at 165lbs!!! the negatives are dwindling down and the PA is looking good final test will be tomorrow when i peddel both outback and PA in the harbor.... :D

PA
I am quite new to the kayaking bit but just this last week went out and did some reserch and looking around at a lot of kayaks and found that the PA was the best fit for myself. I am 6'1" and this kayak has a lot of room and plenty of space to store items. I also bought the thule adjustible truck rack for my dodge 1500 and i had no problems by myself putting it up on the rack. You should have no problems putting it on your car rack. I was also in the debate between the outback and PA. PA won. Taking it out this week end for the first time.
