Sailing and Fishing with a Hobie Outback - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hi All,

I've been fishing off a Hobbie Outback for a few months now. Lately I've been thinking about buying the sail kit, but I'm concerned the line for the sail is gonna get caught on my rods while I'm using the rear molded rod holders. Anyone try the sail with rods sticking out back there?

Also for anyone who has sailed the Outback, is the AMA kit a must? The kayak seems pretty stable, but do I need to worry about rolling that beast?

Any Advice Appreciated =)
