my new yak

After a few weeks of trial and error, I think I found the yak that ill keep for a bit. Its an Ocean Kayak "Manta". Its 16' of offshore beast and I got it for a steal. The manta was made and marketed in 1996 and was discontinued after only 1000 were made. I don't know why, this thing is awesome! Its sturdy, stable, fast and from what I hear, it handles big chop like nothing. It has 2 large A hatches at bow and stern, came with 2 forward faceing flush mounts. I will add 2 rear facing flush mounts, a johnnybar for my scotty and finder. I'm picking up a paranahamax 210 that ill install. I also plan to add a rudder and an anchor system. It has this weird winged nose it looks like a giant squid too!
