Pretty much everything has been covered above. To me, these pedal kayaks just rock all the way around for fishing La Jolla or the bays. I've been pedaling them for a number of years now.
Heavy kelp or heavy stringers? Just pop the drive out and paddle. Best of both worlds.
The pedal drive has been very reliable for me over the years, and I have seen Hobie / Fastlane come through with excellent customer service both for me and for others with any needs or concerns.
