Access below from the boat is tough especially on rough water. Remember to keep your gear where you can get to it w/o twisting and turning. Leashes

As you already my know the revo is faster the outback more stable.Demo both and see which one you like.I just picked up an Outback Thursday and my vhf handheld today all I need is a pfd and I'll be ready to rock n roll.

Is the revo that much faster than the outback? I'd like to demo them all but don't have much time to....

The Revo is faster and has a smoother ride, less hull slap in the chop=dryer ride and less of a chance of spooking

or

when sneaking up on them. The revo also slices through waves when launching in the surf.

The outback maybe a little more stable but unless you plan on standing up it shouldn't matter too much, on thing the outback does have though is more storage space.

stand up = comfort/stability
