Pro Angler 12 or 14? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks for the info guys.

I was leaning towards the 12 because it would be easier to transport in the back of my Avalanche. I can put my outback in the bed and transport it without having to use a bed extender. Plus I'm not a large guy at 5.9/165 so the 12 just seemed easier for me to deal with.

But now I'm seriously thinking about the 14.

Since I'm looking at used PA's because I can get a lot more bang for my buck and end up with some of the accessories I would still need to buy if I bought new I do have a question about the differences between the years.

I really like the idea of the H-rail system. What years does that come on? I tried to get the info off the hobie website but they only provide the current model info.

What are the other main differences between the model years that I need to know before I buy?
