WTB Kayak
I think I've narrowed the field down to either an OK Prowler 13 or 15, or WS Tarpon 14 or 16.
I've been looking on craigslist in OC, LA and SD and plan on visiting a couple shops this weekend but thought I'd check to see if anyone on here had one that they were looking to sell. Let me know. Thanks, Randy |

Just out of curiosity, why not a Malibu? I'm new to kayaking and i'm considering a Malibu Xfactor. ( I've only tried the cobra FnD and X-Factor so far. )

I guess because the Malibu's, to me, don't seem like a yak that I'll be happy with for years. I bought a nice FnD a couple weeks ago and went out on it 4 times (and had a great time fishing from it) but it wasn't "the one" for me so I sold it a couple days ago. The Malibu's seem fine, but for reasons I can't explain, I just see the Malibu's as another entry level yak that I'll want to upgrade out of in a season or less. I just want to skip to one that I'll be happy with for at least a couple-few seasons.

I dunno. First, they're expensive. Second, they seem like they're kinda heavy on land and with the mirage drive, I loose a lot of deck space. Also, I really enjoy the paddling. I like the exercise and my legs are strong enough from running daily. I might end up changing my mind one day but for now, I'm leaning toward the Tarpon or Prowler.
