I'm a big fan of X-13
I have Cobra Fish n Dive and X-13....but mostly use X-13 If you're over 200 LB , might not a good choice though |

I have a X-13. Fits me well. Good layout for custumizing.

Test paddling a kayak Is the best way to find a kayak you feel comfortable with. I am 250 and have paddled the X-13 and love the layout and paddling in the open ocean and bays and harbors.

My brother has an X-13 and he loves it! I've paddled it a few times and I'm 240 lbs and felt really stable. I like the deck layout too!

For guys under 200#, (over 200# need to keep it minimal) I think the X-13 is a great fishing platform. Surfs well, paddles great. I could have brought any one of a number of different kayaks to Baja.......I brought this one.
