PA 12 vs PA 14

[icelogger]

I am back in the market to buy a new fishing rig. Kayak fishing in LJ last year got me hooked on kayak fishing.

I fished a Malibu x-factor all last year in San Diego and it was a good introductory boat. I want to upgrade and get the ultimate fishing kayak. The 2013 Pro Angler has my full attention at the moment.

I have seen the 2013 PA 12, but have not seen the PA 14 yet.

From your experience, what is the big difference between the 2013 PA 12 and 14? I read that there are some issues with the steering on the hobie forums. What do you guys think of the steering issue? is it that big of a deal or something you adapt to?

Any other issues you have with the Pro Angler?

I am looking for a boat that does it all. Fishing the atlantic and pacific oceans, lakes, rivers.

How does the PA 12 work out at LJ?

Is the 14 a beast to load and unload from a roof rack?

Any differences would be great.

Thanks
