Malibu x-13 question?!?! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have an X Factor that I bought a couple of months ago as well as a Stealth 12. Both are very stable kayaks as they are about 33" wide. I think that the X-13 is a little narrower, 29" if I'm not mistaken. That might not be as stable as the Stealth series or the X-Factor if rougher waters, but if the bays and calmer waters I would imagine that it would be just fine.

I have X13 for 3 years and LOVE it
It is not as stable as X Factor but it's lighter and easier to paddle
I can easily lift to top of my SUV too
I've had several kayaks before and currently have 3 kayaks (2 hobies X13)

In my opinion X13 is one of best fishing paddle kayak to me and I'm not gonna let it go
