Malibu Stealth 14 and Stealth 12 out for a test ride? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

The 50lbs you loose in weight capacity is due to the smaller internal volume of the kayak that is caused by the larger tank well, bait tank, and storage hatches.

It seems faster than the X-Factor to me. I can get it a little over 5 mph with around 3.5 mph steady.

The Stealth seems flatter than the X-Factor also? Plus the bottom of the Stealth 14 is SMOOTH as silk.
