I had a P-13 and lit was a great boat. It was great for the bay and did fine in the Ocean. I didnt like the lack of storage and though it was very stable it felt tippy at times. I ended up getting a T-15 for those reasons. I havent tried the Stealth but it looks like it has storage and stability.

Like any boat buy the one your going to want later after the one you are looking at now.

I just sea tested my stealth 14 at La Jolla and all I can say is this is the best Kayak I have ever been in. It is missing some storage by the fisherman ,but there is bocoo up front and in the rear hatch that doen't ship water anymore, but it makes up for in stability. Tracks nice and the live well in the middle is just the cat's A-- , I have finaly found the kayak of my dreams.

Those boats are quite a bit different from one another. What's your height & weight & paddling experience?

Also what features (i.e. stability, speed, storage, weight, deck layout) are most important to you?
