What's this I spy?

The "Steath"???

Jim Sammons LJKF · 10-31-2008, 04:01 PM

There are already about five kayaks out there called Stealth, I hope they came up with a different name than that.
It does look interesting, any specs or other photos

prowlerdude · 10-31-2008, 04:29 PM

In the spring 2008 Kayak Angler Magazine they did a "buyers guide" section in which the listed a Malibu "Stealth" 12 and 14. They had no pictures but mentioned "Malibu's patented casting center live/well storage system". No pictures though

Modernized x-factor?

MalibuJohnny · 11-03-2008, 10:22 AM

I would like to take it for a spin...anyword on when a DEMO is out to try?

forefrazier · 11-03-2008, 04:27 PM

I wonder if the 14' version will be a bit narrower so it will be able to be more on par speed wise with the Trident folks and such.....Factory live well???? Cool! Looks like that silly angled rear hatch is still there though.

We need to say on this until we get more info. That is a sweet looking yak. My curiosity is killing me. If anyone hears anything please let us know.

The more I look at it the wider it looks. Anyone seen any specs. I really would like to get a better look at that deck.

SteveK · 11-14-2008, 07:44 PM

Guys it looks like a X-Factor with the cockpit changed. It should proform the same. I would of like to have seen a threaded plug in the center well for days when I don't live bait.
I looking forward to try one out

tight lines
