I have a Brand new Malibu x-factor. Used I time first part of last week to try out in alamitos bay.. The problem I am having is this. Its to big bulky and heavy for me. I just had my 3rd back surgery at the end of last week. I cant lift it by myself, Its so long I have to put it up on the top of my camper shell on my truck and even though I have a hullivator I still cant lift it up there by myself. Right now I just fish bays and probably wont me doing much ocean fishing. I need something I can slide into the back of my truck. Sooooo The question is this. What lighter and shorter kayaks would you recommend? I have two mini x's for my kids but thats just slightly to small. How are the OK Trident 11s or wilderness Tarpon 100. Also , if anyone has something to trade or wants to purchase a BRAND new x-factor just PM me. Thanks in advance.
